I pick this door to walk through...

....on Friday, I accepted a new position.

It had been a full on week. Highs and lows, including cooking pancakes for a bunch of grade 1's, seeing Simon and Garfunkel live in concert, being on the train that hit the lad who jumped on the track to save his iPod and a rather awkward and disappointing job interview. I sure earned that glass of wine on Friday night!

So my new position is working in Insurance Services, still within the Health Department. My dad had a long career in insurance, so I figure I have a good point of reference, should I need it! The manager of the area offered me a few financial perks from the outset, so I felt really positive about it.

I have a huge challenge ahead, I've never done this kind of work before. I may love it, I may not, but I am willing to give it a red hot go and see where it takes me! I have a meeting to negotiate my release date with my managers this week. I am going to miss comms, I am going to miss my director, who provides endless laughs and witty insight, but this is an exciting new journey that I am grabbing onto with both hands!

Oh yeah, and this is my 100th post!
