A New Beginning

Welcome, and thanks for checking out my new blog! Having reached what I feel is a turning point in my life, and nearing the end of another year, I decided that now is the time to cave in and start blogging again.

Those of you who know me probably know I have had a very difficult few months recently. After I grew tired of my former employer walking all over me, I found myself unemployed for the first time since I entered the IT industry...Even knowing that this was going to be for the better in the long run I couldn't help but feel down on things due to the sudden lack of income and excess of idle time. I felt truly blessed to have the support of my family during this time. I don't know what I would have done without it!

Last week I started a new job that I feel will be ideal for me. I am still in the IT industry, but it feels like something completely different than I had become used to. I now have the freedom to do my job as I see fit without being micromanaged. I'm getting paid on time. I don't leave work feeling guilty anymore because I now work for an ethical company! Most everything I could only have wished for at work before has now become a reality. For the first time in several years I am finally feeling optimistic about the future of my career!
