Life is But a Dream...

Well, well, well...Talk about a 180! I knew this year would be a year of change, but I never imagined just how much change. The segway from last year into the new year was through some mysterious viral illness that my doctors never really fully identified. It put me in slight a disoriented stupor for about three months. During that time, I elected to take time off from work, feeling that I wasn't up to snuff, having needed to perform at such a high caliber in mission critical environments. I had a lot of time to be introspective about my life, my career and my employer.
The end result was that I never went back to work. Rather, I quickly enrolled in some classes at a nearby junior college and decided to start heading into the health industry working as a radiological technician. I had about one week to scramble with registration, finding the right classes and getting into them, before instruction began! But it must be fate, because I got exactly the classes I needed! It's not going to be easy and the path is long, but I feel great about my decision, that this is the right direction for me to go.
If that isn't enough, one weekend, my wife and I ran down to a nearby Humane Society and adopted a puppy!
