You are here… {Humpty was pushed!}

For those of you that checked in earlier today when the Polly Dolly when live would have noticed a wistful line about making the move, about getting on with doing something that I really loved to do. There must of been some special magic in the air this morning because like it or not, today I got what I asked for. Magic. I wish it worked like that every week with Polly Dolly, I’d have the most awesome wardrobe EVER by now.
But instead, this week, I was sacked. Well I quit. I was asked {loudly!} if I wanted my job and I heard myself think, well Melissa, now you choose. And I answered no. No I don’t. And was told to leave. Immediately. And so it was, I was done.
I was leaving a team I worked hard to build, a division I had suffered for to make it as efficient and awesome as it is now. I was leaving a substantial {for this area, definitely} fortnightly payment. I was leaving the safety net of a regular income and a place to go in the morning. 
Weird. 
In some ways it is still processing. I get angry. I get upset. I worry. I laugh and get excited. This is a shove, a gigantic shove from the universe. Time for me to get back to living the life I want. And it looks like it’s online. So don’t think you’re getting rid of me that easy! 
I’m going to look for something online, take on a writing course of two {to improve my grammar, punctuation and spelling} and take some time out. Relax. Chill out. So. Here I am. Like it or not. Ready or not.

  12. Enjoy your down time. ANiotehr one wating to see what cool stuff you get up to.

  13. Bejeebus! I miss a post and WHAMMO! You sure you are okay? I know when I was destructured, even though I planned the whole thing, I went into a little black hole and sat in the fetal position in my bean bag for a couple of days.Retrenched, resigned, it is still a shock to the system (and my lovely farewell package funded nearly a year overseas so I couldn't complain – even had my tickets booked).

  14. Holy shit! How did I miss this post! Good on you for taking a gigantic leap out of your comfort zone and following that feeling somewhere inside that said you needed a change. It takes a lot of guts. Can't wait to see how it all pans out for you xx

  15. I am excited for you! What will the change bring? I look forward to watching it all unfold x

  16. Buckle your seat belt, Suger, that was one hell of a push! There must be huge things waiting around the corner for you..I love this photo of you, you look like the cat that got the cream. Go you!xx

  17. Somehow I missed this! I really admire that you were able to walk away from that comfort and security to stay true to yourself and what you love to do. Will miss all the property management stories though (although, maybe now you're not working you can share all the really bad ones!!). Onto the next adventure!

  18. Soooooo a blank canvas on which you can create anything!!! love yaLisa
