Hi all-
Just wanted to say that yes, I have found and accepted a new position!! That's the number one worrier crossed off the list. It's with an agency called http://www.thecouncil.org and I'll be working on a contract they have with the Feds.
It involves a lot of travel but since we don't have kids, and we're moving home where all of my extraneous relatives can pitch in with the animals- I think we'll be ok. It will be a challenge but I'm very excited. I had reached a place in my career where my decision was take my executive/administrative skills and apply them to a new place, or take my skills in the developmental disabilities field and use them on a national level. I picked B. I did interview at the place that I had sent the cookies and they were interested.
After some serious soul searching, I decided that I really enjoy the field of developmental disabilities (or intellectual disabilities as it's now known!) and wanted to stay in it. My administrative duties, while fun and interesting, were also a lot of pressure. It will be so nice to not have to carry a pager and worry about everything from did so-and-so make it the doctor's appointment to did my staff person show up to did corporate print our paychecks yet.
So- there we go! I may be showing up at a facility or agency near you- where ever you may be!
