Chapter 2: When I come back from a hiatus because I forgot I had a blog

Well this is embarrassing. Here I was all ready and determined to have a blog and to keep up with it and look what happened, I forgot about it completely. But I do have an a reason (or excuse as some like to call it.) I've been busy. Like life changing busy... 


...okay maybe not life changing busy, but it's been a little crazy recently. The reason why? I quite my job and moved. It's a long story and I know you are very eager to hear it but it's a long story so I'll give you the short version of it. 

See it all started on Easter Sunday. I went back home to see family and relax. I was just sitting at the counter when all of a sudden I started to tear up. This is not uncommon. I was tired, mentally an physically, and when I let my guarded down tears start to flow. Well my uncle and aunt where right next to me and and were very worried because I started to cry. They asked what was wrong and I told them about my job and the situation I was in and how I felt helpless and trapped. They were obviously troubled by this and were trying to help but I told them there was nothing they could do and that I'll be fine. 

4 hours later...
I'm back in Orlando because I have to work the next day and I get a call from my aunt and uncle. They had been talking about the situation I was in and they didn't like it so they gave me a proposition; I can either stay in Orlando and in my horrible job or I could move in with them and they will help me find a job related in my field. I was in tears (again) because I finally knew that I had a way out of the situation I was in. It was like a weight had been taken off my shoulders and I could finally breathe. I was so happy. Two days later I put my two weeks in at the office and started to pack up my stuff for moving. Two weeks later I was moved into my aunt and uncles house. Now I'm sitting on the couch typing this story up and I couldn't be happier. Do I have a job yet? No but I'll be volunteering with the local art museum to gain experience and I'm also looking for a part time job, but for now I'm happy which I haven't been in a long time.
