Update!

Just thought I would give everyone an update on my job. As of today, I'm officially NOT going back to work! My Maternity leave is up as of the end of the year, and I was torn as to what I should do. I didn't have any child care lined up and I was going to have to quit unless a miracle happened. As some of you know, my company is doing TERRIBLE due to the slow housing market and some bad decision making. Everything is pretty much falling apart and there is a lot of DRAMA going on that I don't need in my life. Today I met with my boss for lunch and she told me I would be laid off as of the end of the year. This was the BLESSING I was hoping for! This means I can stay home with my baby and I will get severance pay and reimbursement for some health insurance. This is great for our family! I am a little bit sad to not be going back to work as I worked with many great people and the company treated me great! If I had to go to work, that wasn't a bad place to go and that job brought many great blessings and opportunities to our family. I'm happy to say that I'm officially retired as of age 26. Brent graduates in May from Dental School so I'm hoping this means I won't be looking for a job any time soon. Now I can focus on Mommyhood!

That's great Julie. I wish I could be retired at 26, but I'm well beyond that point . . . too bad for me. I'm sure you'll have a great time.
