Daily Meeting

So...today we had a People to People meeting in Yakima. It was another informational meeting to share with people the ins and outs of traveling with our program. Usually this meeting takes place in the fall; but it was kind of nice to do another one. It was super great because I got to spend some time with my friend Susan. Susan and I met at East Valley High School when we were Social Studies colleagues. I adore her...she's super cool. We had the most fun collaborating together...and talking with each other...and complaining about the boys.

When I decided to leave EV and take the job in Prosser I knew it was going to be difficult to leave my beloved job after nine years. It was different because I wasn't leaving EV because of anything wrong with EV...I was leaving EV because it was so far away. It was a great job and I knew I'd miss it. But I didn't know I was going to miss my colleagues as much as I do. I hadn't ever really called them my friends...my EV colleagues had always been friend-ly...but because we were colleagues first I never really put them in the *friend* category.

But...boy...when I see them after so long I LOVE it. And I loved hanging out with Susan today. After our meeting we went over to her house and scrapbooked...which felt good too:-)

*picture coming soon*
*BTW...ever notice how I start these Project 365 posts with the word SO...?*
