No, really, I'd like to know 'cause I haven't felt like myself in a long, LONG time. Again, on the way home, the lyrics to Casting Crowns' song, Does Anybody Hear Her, that I've heard a hundred times before, hit me like a ton of bricks:
She is running
A hundred miles an hour in the wrong direction
She is trying
But the canyon's ever widening
In the depths of her cold heart
So she sets out on another misadventure just to find
She's another two years older
And she's three more steps behind
It's VERY hard for me to admit this but I have crashed and burned. I have jumped from one nightmare job right into another in the span of a year. At the outset, they both seemed like such blessings but they have been absolute curses.
This latest job was the straw that broke my back. So, I quit. And then I quit again. And I quit for the third and final time on 1.17.12. I told them I would stay through February but I literally have to take it one day at a time. I. AM. BURNED. OUT.
I'm going to take some time off to get my priorities straight. I don't know what the future holds but I'm praying that this is the turning point to peace and contentment.

I'm so sorry you're going through this, Leigh! i'll be praying for clarity of all this, and hope you are ok. I know when you're not happy in your job it spills over into other parts of your life, so praying something better comes out of this situation. Hugs!

Praying for you! I hope you find the peace for which you are searching.
Thanks, ladies! I've already experienced relief in that I don't wake up in the middle of the night with stomach aches. I'm looking forward to the rest and optimistic about the future.
Love y'all!!!
