That is fantastic; good for you! I'm thinking all good things for you. ♥

Thank you, sweetie!! *hugs tightly* I've been agonizing over this for months, and so obviously this is not the first time I've thought of quitting, but it was hard to make that decision. This time it just felt right to go ahead and do it!! :DD I really appreciate the good thoughts! ♥

Thank you, dear! *hugs tightly* It does feel good! And scary! lol But one of the things I was most worried about, the bit about how quickly they would be able to find someone to replace me and how much that person would need to learn, worked out so beautifully - she starts July 1, so I will have two full months to teach her everything - that I have faith the rest will too. ^.^

I'm glad you're happy! Something is always waiting on the horizon, so I think you'll be okay :)

I am very happy. Thank you, sweetie! *hugs* The job was with a company I really enjoyed working for and the pay was very good, so it was hard to let go of. But the work itself was beginning to drag me down - it was so not-creative - I just finally felt I had reached that wall where I couldn't do it any more. My brain was shutting down and rebelling! lol

I'm sure I will be okay. :D I'm really looking forward to finding what's out there waiting!

And I'm crossing my fingers and sending you good thoughts for something wonderful to come your way also!

Believing in yourself & what's right for you is always a good thing. It's wonderful that Ken supports your decision & believes in you too. I'm happy for you!

Thanks, hon!! I really appreciate that! ^.^ He's always surprising me with his amazing support at times like this. *grin*

good on you! am so pleased for you ♥ ♥ ♥

Thank you, sweetie! *hugs* ^.^ ♥♥♥

Good for you! Life is way too short to waste it on doing things you very much do not want to do. I hope something awesome will come your way very soon... but not so soon that you cannot enjoy your freedom for a while of course :)

Thank you, dear!! ^.^ You are so right. I'm sure the perfect thing will turn up at just the perfect time. :DD And I do hope I'll have some free time too. ;-)

I hope you get to do the job you really want - life is too short to waste 1/3 of each day doing a job we can't stand!

Thank you, hon! ^.^ You are so right! *hugs*

Congrats! What a sense of freedom you must feel!

Thank you, Leela!! ^.^ It feels great! lol Now if I can just make it through the next two months.... :P

You're so brave! It was the best thing to do - I felt soooo relieved when I decided to quit my office job and to begin teaching. It's the best thing I ever did in my life, it's been 18 years now and I still LOVE to go to work every day. :D

All best to you and may you find your dream job. *squishes*

Thank you, dear. And I'm not really so brave - we don't need my income, though it was very nice to have - but not so nice that I wanted to keep doing a job I was worn out with. That's awesome that you've loved your job for so long! That truly sounds like you've found your passion. ^.^

I hope so! *squishes back*

Good for you!

Good luck with finding the perfect job. :)

Thank you, hon! ^.^ I really appreciate that! *hugs*

Good for you! Nothing stifles creativity faster than being where you don't want or aren't meant to be. It's great that you are able to follow that feeling of something better waiting for you. I hope you find happiness in your next adventure.

Thank you, my dear! ^.^ I just hope there is an adventure!! lol And it doesn't turn out to be me hanging around the house with nothing to do... but play computer games... :PP There's not even Chihuly at Cheekwood to go to any more! ;-)

But how are you!?! I don't think I've talked to you in ages! *hugs* Hope you are well.

Good for you! It must be fantastic beeing free from a job you can't stand. I wish you to find a more suitable job, and all the best *hug tightly*

Thanks, sweetie! ^.^ It was a wonderful company to work for, and I really enjoyed working there, and had lovely co-workers, but the job itself was something I finally just got worn out with. So it's both sad and fantastic to be leaving. I'm hoping for something more creative next! *hugs tightly back*

Congrats, dear! It was a brave thing to do. I hope something more interesting will come along. :)

(Just the other day I was wondering how you were doing, so it was good to hear from you. :))

Thank you so much, dear! And as I told leochi, it's not actually all that brave since we don't really need my income. It was nice to have it, but not so nice that I wanted to stay in a job that I was worn out with. Hopefully, something much more creative will come along. :D *hugs you tightly for thinking of me* ♥

Thanks for the LJ gift! :D

You're welcome, sweetie! I hope you had a good day! ^.^ *hugs*

LOL - I forgot to switch browsers before I replied, and I was signed is as the mod for hd_fanart in the other. :P

Hiya! I know I'm late, but I wanted to wish you a happy birthday nonetheless. Hope you had a great day!

Oh gosh - not as late as this reply! I've totally forgotten to check this e-mail lately. Thanks so much for the birthday wishes, dear!! *hugs*
