Cancun here we come!

Well, it’s official – I am off for vacation! It can’t come too soon either.

We have had many bad happenings at work lately including layoffs, demotions, and changes in management. I don’t feel anyone is getting treated fairly – and as far as me personally, I feel of no value there whatsoever. Current management is content to turn the environment into a remake of “Office Space”. I feel people are being stripped of all value, respect and self-worth. Everyone is being “encouraged” to keep their mouths shut and their heads down – and definitely no talking or open communication allowed! I have never feared for my job before, and it’s not a fun feeling. I hope I’m not another one that loses their job when the final year-end tally comes in, but if I am, it could be a blessing in disguise. It’s been a long time since I “hated” coming to work everyday. But unfortunately, I do. And it’s not just me that has been feeling that way. It’s so sad to see, I hope it doesn’t continue. But for the time being, I’m going to continue to be a team player.

As for me this week, I am headed to Cancun with my cute hubby and some great friends! I will do my best to not think of work AT ALL but will definitely be dreading coming back. Rachel and I have even considered moving there and learning how to braid hair and train Eric and Kurt to fish and open their own market stand. Then we can get out from under “the man” here in the U.S. I mean after all, the medications are dirt cheap there, and so is the booze….so maybe eloping to live in the Cancun sun for the rest of my life isn’t such a bad idea!

In other news, we had family photos taken this past weekend so I wanted to share. Aren’t the boys getting big!? It was so much fun to get pictures done. It’s the first time I’ve ever had family photos of my own (that weren’t my wedding photos). I love the family I’m in and I hope it will only get bigger as the years go by.

I’m off to Mexico ….Adios! This blog will be continued after June 30th
