Update: October 28th, 2012… Back to work at last!
Two weeks ago, I went
back to work! After being off on medical leave for over a year and half, it was
quite a change in my daily routine. I started a brand-new job, which so far I
love doing.
To be honest, I had not
been looking forward to returning to the job that I had before going on medical
leave. Those reasons are vast and just not important anymore. This new job
happened just the day before I was to return to my previous job. I felt that it
was meant to be (fate or destiny I suppose), so when the job was offered to me,
I accepted the position immediately.
The first week was hard,
the second a wee-bit less so. I am still tired, very achy and exhausted at the
end of the day. However, I feel like I am accomplishing something though, which
is a good thing. I am getting my life back and slowly (too slowly if I am
honest) getting my strength and stamina back.
This is a huge step to
getting the “me” back that I was prior to becoming ill. It is a hard road, but
I have come so far now that the final miles will become easier each day. I can
start again getting back to the “redhead” that I was before surgery and
chemotherapy took my energy and hair away. I am going to enjoy life, stay
positive and remember that each day that I have is a gift and not take it for
granted ever again!
In a few months, I am
planning to return to school. I want to earn a degree in Journalism. I am
interested in the writing part of teaching, and with this degree, I should be
able to find something in which I can do the thing that I love to do best,
writing! So wish me luck!
Live,
love, laugh, listen and learn!
Hugs
and kisses, Connie
