Hello friends! I have been in and out over here at Providential Life, and have had some things in the works. I’m back now, and ready to tell all of you that I have gotten a new job! This is a bittersweet change, as I love my coworkers, and community I have built here, but ultimately it is a great change for me as I am going to work closer to home, and will be starting (hopefully) an adventure that’ll launch into a career!

This job was my first out of college, and the first thing I have ended that didn’t have a timeline. Being an adult, away from college (which you know will end) and retail jobs (which you hope will end) it feels overwhelming to make decisions for yourself, that affect everything from your doctor to where you get your morning coffee, to your yoga schedule (which I am working on.)

I am going to miss Liz, my soul sister. I am going to miss my bosses hilarious stories, both about work and family. I am going to miss my coworkers, working with children, and working in a community that is so friendly and welcoming. I am going to miss being called Ms. Palluzzi and miss plays, class events, and those delicious staff appreciate lunches.

I have learned so much from my job, and hope to just learn more as I embark on my new adventure. I am excited to lose 15 miles each way on my commute (that’s 30 miles a day, or my entire week’s commute as of July 12.) I am excited to have a fifteen minute drive, I am excited for working near friends (coffee breaks, here we come.) I am excited for new opportunities, new friendships, and a new environment to grow professionally and creatively.

Big things are happening here, friends. Here’s to new adventures near the summer solstice. Here we go.
