What a great day. I have one of the greatest bosses a person could ever hope for she has been a real blessing to me and has given me hope. Today she presided over a good-bye luncheon and I cannot help but see the light of Christ in her. She is truly a shaker and baker. Cathy, forces you to be all that you can be and when you are down and out she is there to carry to the place you need to be.

I had a chance of meeting with the Colonel over our organization today he is the father of our Group and wants the best for his work family. I love his values it is God first, family second and country third. I expressed to him my gratitude for being able to work in his organization and for the leadership provided by Cathy. We are becoming a very close family and my fellow employees will never know all the strength they provide for me. I have enjoyed the things they have shared with me. They are great people from all walks of life and a rich variety of religious backgrounds.  They bless me daily with their understanding and care.

Two more days and I enter the hospital. I am very solemn at this time feeling like I know the answer. They will take care of my job while I am gone and in doing so things will be in better hands than mine. This is a terrific group I have been blessed to work with.  They have stayed close though some difficult work situations and wow how they have grown. Myself I can’t keep up with all the good things they are doing. My peers are truly my salvation at work. I would mention names but I need to protect the innocent. They know who they are and I am going to miss them. How blessed we are when those we work with are just like family.
