Rough day

Today has been thoroughly depressing. My team was laid off today. The fact that I lost my job is actually not what is depressing me. I know there are lots of exciting things out there for me to work on and we planned for this so the financial aspects of it are not devastating. What is making me sad is leaving a company I really enjoyed working for and a team that I loved being a part of. I am so bummed that I will not get to continue working with my colleagues. I know I was not going to stay in this job and with this team for my entire career. It just feels different when you make the choice to make a change versus when someone else makes it for you, and by surprise.

My blog is going to change a bit going forward. I will still be blogging pictures but now that I do not have my work blog, I will be blogging geeky stuff that I used to blog there.

In the mean time, I am going to enjoy some time with my family, the beach, and getting my garden ready for this year.
