going back home...

to the Redmond Chamber of Commerce, that is. I gave my resignation to the banking world today. September 22nd will be my last day and I can't wait. Sometimes you need to remove yourself from a situation to appreciate and be appreciated. I will miss all the wonderful people I've met and worked with but my heart belongs in the community. I was offered more money to stay but it didn't matter, I'd rather be poor, content and happy than to be doing something that my heart wasn't into. After all, what is the point?

Last night I went over to Heidi's new house to help paint her bedroom. She is incredible with colors and I can't wait to take her shopping with me to pick out the new colors for Adam's living room (soon to be ours). The mustard-baby-poop color MUST go. Bad, so bad. And it's all my fault, all. I wish I had my Mother's talent and creativity; just a little would have been groovy. I must be color blind. No lie. I wear colors together that Adam questions often. Really, there is no rhyme or reason to my selection. I see it, I like it and I buy it.  And my Mother wonders why I wear so much black and white. And maybe that would also explain why I have a ridiculous number of decorative pillows I get home from the store and dislike only days after buying jammed in the storage closet in my garage. P-A-T-H-E-T-I-C.

Happy Friday to all. Have a spectacular weekend!!!
