    I made it!

    Well the day has finally come...tomorrow is my last day!! Having lots of bittersweet feelings as I know I will miss my crew, one of them in particular who has been with me for 2 1/2 years. But on the other hand, I absolutely cannot wait to take down the gates, take off the child proofing locks, throw away the diaper pail and essentially completely rearrange my house!!!!!

    I've been wanting to quit since about February/March so it's been a bit of a long ride but I made it! I am exhausted and looking forward to resting, relaxing and pressing the "reset" button on my life.

    I gave my clients 7 weeks notice and to my surprise, everyone stayed til the end. They all were sad about my closing but were also very supportive.

    I am super excited that I get the summer off but even more excited to begin this new chapter.

    I did want to thank all of you for your very valuable input. It was such a lifesaver when I found this forum!! I wish you all the very, very best!!
