A Big Work Change

Over a month ago I said that I was going to have something exciting happening that would make my life easier, but I didn’t want to announce it until it was finalized. Well, FINALLY it’s happening!

I will be working from home now! It will be a test for 90 days and then they’ll let me know if it will work out permanently. Two of us were chosen to be in the pilot. I was a lucky one!

I am happy about this for a variety of reasons. But first and foremost I am happy that I will be able to cook healthy foods for myself that will be satisfying, that I will have more time to exercise and less time spent commuting! I feel like this is going to help my weight loss. I know I will probably find struggles in this too, but I’m hoping for the best! No more vending machines!!

I will be doing the same job as I am doing now, so I will be dealing with the same stressful situations, but at least I can do it in my PJ’s if I want to!!

I will save on gas money, about $50 a week. The awesome thing is, hubby recently got a promotion that entitles him to a company truck and he no longer has to pay for gas either! So we will have less wear and tear on our vehicles, fewer oil changes, and we should just save money altogether!

I just hope that I don’t miss people too much! I will have Instant messaging, so I can still talk to people at work.

I am really looking forward to this. I am supposed to start on Monday as long as nothing comes up. They have been putting this off time and time again, so I hope it’s actually going to start on Monday!
