So you might be wondering what I have been up to this week off. Did I tear myself apart in despair and depression over leaving my last company? Did I immerse myself in Health Care reading to be prepared for my new hospital job? Did I devote my time to working out and eating well to kick off this new era in my life?
Well, No, No and Sorta. I spent the entire week interviewing contractors to do work in my basement, clearing out the basement area to get it all ready to start work, and set up a garage sale to get rid of all the crap we don’t want anymore.
So, no, I haven’t had time to read up on Health Care or to exercise (much), but I sure as heck didn’t get all weepy about losing my last job! Don’t know about you, but that was a big surprise to me. I was expecting to crash and suffer from time-waste paralysis this whole week. But I didn’t! I was SO productive it’s not even funny!
So, I’ve had the BEST week ever, and I’m fully energized to start my new job on Monday.
One more thing… do you remember me talking about that video I made for the conference I didn’t get to attend? I sent an email to one of the organizers and I asked them how it had gone (there are so many things that tend to go wrong with those things, that I wanted to make sure they were all set and my memory lived on in a positive light). He replied saying everything had gone perfectly, and that everybody loved my video! Also, one of the leaders of the organization had some very nice things to say about me while he gave a speech to the attendees from my business. Apparently my name also came up in their national leaders meeting when they were talking about metrics tracking (which I implemented during my tenure in that team). Soooo, all in all, it made me feel all warm and fuzzy inside. I sent a nice note to that leader thanking him for the kind words.
With a big smile, I bid you adieu for now, until I have something else to write about in my new job!!! Wish me luck!
