It's been a while since I've posted anything on my blog.... it's not that life got really boring or anything, but for some reason I can't explain I just stopped. But today felt like a good day to start again. It has been 9 months since I moved to London to begin working at St. Joseph's Healthcare, London and began my double life.... spiritual care provider in London by weekday, and wife in Hamilton by weekend. To be honest, living in two places was easier than I thought it would be, especially when you really love your job and feel valued in the work that you do, but I am looking forward to go back to living at home. And today I found out that as of May 31st, I am free to do so.
My initial 6 month contract has offered me two extensions along the way, but the budget is what it is, and the funds for my position have dried up and so my time here is coming to a rapid end. I feel very mixed about this. Right from the beginning I have loved working at St. Joe's in London. I have loved the people I get to work with, I have loved the challenge of serving outpatient clinics, I have loved the networking I've been able to accomplish, and I love feeling like an integrated part of something... and as an introvert, I am proud of what I have managed to accomplish in just 9 months time. I am very sad to say good bye. But it must be so. And so I find myself thinking about what these next months might hold for me. I look forward to eating dinner with Josh every night, and to seeing him before he goes to work in the morning. I look forward to getting my Meeka time every morning again.
On that note..... I think it's time a begin posting more regularly again.... so much has happened in these last 9 months... not to mention the fact that just yesterday I was horseback riding in Iceland and have so many pictures to share...... so stay tuned!!
