Several of your points really spoke to me, but here are the big ones:<br /><br />1. Wanting the title/recognition v the work and responsibility. I'm not sure I've ever been happy than now - working from home at a no name company. In hindsight, I think my decision to take the job at Amazon was greatly influenced by the recognition factor instead of the actual job itself.<br /><br />2. Moving away from family is HARD. Granted, I moved with Joe and not alone, but making the choice to leave your family is tough (both deciding and then living with that decision). It's hard to be the only one so far away and miss the random little weekends together and the memories that come with that. I love where we are now, but I struggle with the guilt of that at many times throughout the year.<br /><br />And, of course, the email inbox one made me smile!Deannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09376096794734546508noreply@blogger.com
