I'm back now. Gave it some thought on vacation, but I didn't want to ruin my vacation thinking about work so I tried not to think about it that much. He's away right now. I'll see how I feel getting back to it. Kathy, there shouldn't be a porblem with comp time. Management there does it a lot. Great Maxine one, Chick I thought about applying for a job in Disney while I was there, but Cinderella was taken so I came back.

Louisa, I bet they may need another Cinderella. Don't give up on that one!

Anything new at Desney you want to share? I was in Animal Kingdom in March and had a blast with my animal loving daughter.

Funny, I once took a trip to Disney and was very prayerful while there about leaving a job. I chose to leave it and never looked back.

I'm sure you'll make the right decision. Just keep us posted.

I have thought about you off and on over the past month. You sound like you are asking all of the right questions and being extrememly thoughtful in your decision. Way to go, Louisa.

There were some changes in Disney. Some we didn't like, but there's always change. We did LOVE the new Italian restaurant at the Swan Hotel. There's a new ride in Epcot called The Seas. It was about finding Nemo. It was cute but nothing that wonderful. I like the Figment one better. We only went to the Magic Kingdom and Epcot this time. Those are my favorites. We don't do all the theme parks every time. We hotel hopped one day. Went to the Wilderness Lodge and the Grand Floridian. We played miniature golf at the Fantasia Gardens. That was a first for me (and a last). We spent an evening at Downtown Disney so I could shop my brains out. Again, found a new restaurant, the Raglan Cafe. We ate outside. It was a gorgeous night. I got in some pool time and some jacuzzi time. It was a nice relaxing vacation.

As for decisions, I'm not good at them, but I have to make one soon. Can't keep doing two jobs, even though they are finding summer help to do some of my regular stuff. I've pretty much decided, just want to clarify a few more things before I make a move like this.

Well, ladies - I did it. I took the job today. Dotsie, I think my fear was/is that it might not work out, I might not like it afterwards, or stress. I liked the job I had, but I was getting tired of it. I never thought I would have another job. I thought I would do what I was doing until retirement. Things just surprise you sometimes. I wasn't looking for this and there it was. I think I made the right decision. I didn't want to be kicking myself later for passing it up as Yonuh said. We'll see. I moved into my new office today.

Yea!! Doesn't it feel good, though, to have made that decision and be moving forward? You'll do great, I just know it!

Thanks. Right or wrong, it wasn't a snap decision. But, yes, it does feel good knowing I finally made a decision. I hope I don't fall off the ladder and break something, Hannelore. Thank you all for your comments and input.
