Time Flies

Life has been quite busy the past few weeks. Since I have return to my old job on a as need by basis I haven't really had to much free time. My best friends wedding was last weekend and I have to say, it was amazing! I knew it would be great but I really truly enjoyed it and thought that her and her new hubby did an amazing job with everything. It was a nice get a away and Sarasota is beautiful. All the girls had withdrawals when we returned to Atl :(

Since I have been back I have just been playing catch up. Even though I am working from home right now, my dad and I do a lot on a daily basis so I had to spend some time getting updated on what was going on. I don't know how much I am looking forward to June because I will be working both jobs about full time....so let's say my weeks will be about 60 hours long just working! I just keep telling myself to look at the final picture and it will all be worth it.

With our new company, this is the critical time, right now we are picking product names and packaging. Once we do this we get a design for our logo and then we can finally start production! I am just trying to wrap all this up in the next 3 weeks and get things on paper and then I think I will be able to relax...I think!

Wasn't I just here?

Today was my first day back at my old job. It's weird to be back, although I am there on a contract basis, so as needed for either party. It worked out for both of us, they needed someone but were in the position to hire full time and I was looking for a job that required minimal hours so I can continue working on my own project with my dad.

As I went up the escalator and walked to get my morning coffee, it felt like I never left, like I was just there the day before. I made me really sad. It made me sad that the past 9 months felt like a day. My greatest fear after my trip was that I would soon forget all those moments that I wanted to last forever. And now I feel it happening, I feel like I am letting go, like it was so brief or a distant dream. Being back made me realize how short it all was.

As sad as I was to feel this way, I was happy to see everyone, to do something I am good at and like and really to just make some money! It was just the strangest feeling, so weird to be back and feel like I was gone, but not at the same time. I never thought I would go back, I had made it so final in my mind but the fact is that there were times I missed it, missed the people and the fun times we had!
