Last day of the job is over and done with. I hardly got anything accomplished and I actually feel bad about that. Not sure why. It's not like it effects me at all. Except that I adore my coworkers, so it's probably residual guilt at having left them with a wee tiny bit of a mess. Fortunately, they will forgive me for it.
They surprised me with lunch (which was yummy) and cake (which was very nice) and overwhelmed me with a gift so generous...they know me well and got me two gift cards to craft stores! I was blown away and if I hadn't been sitting when I opened them I would have fallen right to the floor. So very incredibly generous. I am so touched and thankful and grateful...I can't even put it into words. Even a couple of the bosses who have taken pains to avoid me these last two weeks took a moment to wish me well and tell me that I will be missed. I was able to keep myself together enough that I only got choked up and didn't cry outright, so points to me.
And the good thing is that I now get to go shopping. I've had my eye on a few notions that I've always wanted but felt were frivolous. I'm going for it now. That's why gift card money is so very amazing. And before the week is done, I will send out thank you notes. Thank you are two of the most powerful words in the universe when they are used with sincerity. And I am to do just that. Hopefully, I will able to express my heartfelt thanks with grace and aplomb.
