I'm Almost FREE

Some of you have been following me since I started blogging in 2007. I orginally started so I would have an outlet to process what had happened to me in my personal relationships. I needed a way to vent healing from narcissistic relationships and a place where I could work though my family of orgin issues.

After I had moved on, blogging became a fun way to just "be". I'd made friends with so many of you. It just made sense to keep going.

Two years ago, I was let go from my job that I loved. My boss let me go to make room for an "old friend". I'd been told stories about her, but my general reaction was always whatever. Until my boss told me one Thursday how valuable I was to the company in answer to the question, "Is my job at risk". He emphasized that my job was secure.

It was shocking that the VERY NEXT DAY, he laid me off with the explaination that he wasn't ready to deal with it the day before.

Would have been ok if I hadn't had a job offer the day before that I'd let go of because of his answer. Ahem.

That boss is still steamed that I blogged even though the only time I ever blogged about my job was to say how much I loved my job and I never once mentioned his company name.

Even so, I received papers stating that I couldn't formally blog for two years. Time is almost up.

I did the right thing. I loved my job. I loved the company I worked for even though it was a tough place to work. And still it bit me in the butt.

I haven't blogged in a long time. Boy...do I have a lot to say.
