It is done!
Hallelujah! 
Bossman was really sweet and after asking if I was serious, he said “You got me through a very tough time and I’m so grateful for that.” He said he knew sooner or later that it was coming (was hoping later, not surprised at sooner).
There was no letting myself off the hook – I’d already gone too long and it was only getting scarier so now or never. Plus, I DO NOT want to feel the smack of the Uni on my head because that sucks like you cannot believe.
My coach told me I was as shut down as she’s ever seen me and I know that’s true. The corporate world takes it out of me – it doesn’t happen to everyone but it sure does to me. The decision came down to whether I would CHOOSE to “shine bright like a diamond” or not. And I chose to shine.
I choose to be happy
You and I, you and I
We’re like diamonds in the sky”
Thank you all again (seen and unseen readers) who have carried me along, cheerleading all the way. Couldn’t have done it without you!
Atta Snarkster!
I can just picture you opening the new chapter of your life.
I am so, so, so happy for you. How do you feel? Is it a total relief or are you still a bit conflicted?
I can already feel your lightness–as the burden has been lifted. Congratulations! ;-)
