Today was a pretty tough day. This whole weekend has been pretty crazy and I never mentioned some stuff because I wasn't ready for it to get out just yet. But now everything is for sure so I can talk about it now. Over the weekend I was offered a job at Genworth Financial to work in thier IT Department. Everything happend pretty suddenly and they needed an answer as soon as possible so I spend most of the weekend considering and praying about it, and talking to friends and family about it. On Sunday I pretty much decided I was going to do it. Oddly enough I think what really helped me decide was a random conversation with a guy I met at Barnes and Noble Sunday afternoon. I was already leaning in that direction because of some other events that took place in my thinking process. But It is funny sometimes how God can speak in odd ways. By Sunday evening I decided all I needed to do was call Genworth this morning and ask a few last minute questions I had. I called and asked and the answers were what I wanted to hear, so I told him it was a go and he said my first day will be on the 25th. That is exactly two weeks from today. So most of my thoughts this morning were trying to figure out the best way I could inform the guys at work. It was a sad desision in a way because I enjoyed the personalities and the friendships with the guys at my work, but I couldn't stay forever and I needed to go out and strech my wings a little bit. I am truly greatful for the privledge I had of working there over the past four years and it will still be hard to let go of it somewhat. I am excited for the new adventrue I have ahead of me though. I think after telling the guys of my plans it went the best it could have. It was still a pretty unexpected hit to them I think. They knew it was coming eventually, but perhaps not this soon. I know God will provide another employee for them, that will have a lot to offer them. I pray that God continues to Grow and bless Computer Exchange long after I am gone. One other thing I am regetful of is that I won't be able to watch Evan grow up each week. I will probalby still see him here and there but it just won't be as often. I'll sure miss that kid. So today was a day of mixed emotions trying to deal with these desions of life. But I feel that God is leading me in a new direction and I'm ready for what he has to offer. Thanks everyone for all your prayers.
