Can I Just Say?

Two spouses looking forward to going into work every Monday morning is so peculiarly wonderful. Forever it's felt like one of us (I'll let you guess who), despite potential and literal challenges at work, had something really great to figuratively "clock-in" to everyday while the other made every attempt to find some sense of purpose and fulfillment in her (oh shoot, I gave myself away) day to day, jobless or not.

But it's different now, and that's really really good (for both of us).

Don't let me fool you: nothing is ever all rosey on the job-front, and I think that's because our contentedness is not supposed to be in what we do. But when you have to work, being somewhere you love with people who are amazing, all doing things with great purpose, is just dynamic and inspiring and makes the weekdays a little less about "living for the weekends". Not that we don't, occassionally...

And like I said to mom on the phone this morning, it's not easy knowing that all of this isn't set in stone for me come late-January. After this stint at Belmont, who knows what is next? But knowing that I am here, right now, is all I need.

I'm so grateful for at least that.
