I'm Back!

Paramedic training started way back in May. Balancing that and a full time job, not to mention a family has made it nearly impossible for me to think about blogging. Why am I blogging now you ask?
It isn't because school has finished, I still have two more weeks of that before I am done. I still have a family too, which is the best part of all. To the thinking man (or lady), there seems to be only one conclusion left as to what has changed that has allowed me the time to begin blogging again.
Yes, it's true, I am officially finished at the Original Joe's. The restaurant that I spent so much time and effort trying to get with and I have officially broken up. We are no longer seeing each other. Why you ask? Well it seems that OJ's wasn't happy with the amount of time that I was spending with it. Actually, more accurately, it wasn't happy with the potential lack of amount of time I would be spending with it. According to OJ's, it was anticipating that I wouldn't be able to meet it's needs after I start working part time as a paramedic, and wanted someone more committed to it.
I was kind of shocked and surprised, because I thought we had a pretty decent relationship going, but these things happen. There is a new love in OJ's life, and I guess they have more time and energy to put in to it.
The good news for me is that the relationships that I still have in my life (my family, my friends, my God) are all more important to me than what I had going with OJ's. Not to say I didn't care about Oj's, but if I had to choose one of the above to give up it would have been Oj's. Which I guess is part of the reason that I don't work there anymore.
So I have two weeks of school left, and then it will be time to get out there and find some work. Until then, I will be spending my extra time catching up on the relationships that matter the most to me now that I don't have the high maintenance Oj's relationship draining on me.
