Default I have wanted to post this for a long time

Yes, one year, 9 months and 25 days to be exact. I am officially back to work after loosing my job so long ago. Today I became a funeral director (in training, but paid). On January 3rd I begin my second job teaching Anatomy at the very same school where I attended up to 2 weeks ago. The funeral home will work around my teaching schedule. Is busy work with crazy schedule, totally unexpected experiences, like riding in a car with a dead body on my first day, but really feels good to go back to work.

Congratulations! I remember reading your posts months ago when you were in school. Good for you for completing your mission and taking on a teaching job besides. Happy holidays.

I have followed you since I joined this board and I am very happy things are turning around for you and your family. I couldn't do that line of work but, I'm glad someone can. I sure hope things keep getting better for you.

I think the new year will be a good one for you. I know that none of us like to think of our demise and yet it has to happen sometime for all of us. I admire those of you who can help with the loss of a loved one. And congrats on teaching anatomy. Sounds really interesting.

Congratulations on your new jobs and hope to see you still here on the board--even tho I am sure you will be totally busy. Don't forget to take time out for yourself.
