Butterflies and Jobs

Extra sad for a Monday...While I was out on vacation 2 weeks ago, the President of the company gave a little goodbye speech that I didn't get to hear. (We're on to the 3rd CEO since I came to the company a year and a half ago). Between that and another meeting with the exec in my group, it seems that the rumors of our office moving East are close enough for me to call them confirmed. I hate that I didn't get to hear the information for myself.

It probably will be a year or two out...Do I start looking now? Or do I wait for the supposed "nice goodbye package" that the organization is supposedly known to provide everytime they relocate or collapse one of their acquisitions. Sad - I actually like my job. And yes - a year or two is far away, but that will be the most un-fun and non-productive year of any employee's life if they chose to wait it out. Sucky. A lot to think about.

On to something lighter..Too much HGTV is dangerous...I contracted a "redecorating bug" over the weekend. My bedroom that I previously liked become ugly and boring. Funny how that happens! I decided that I need something more on the walls and that I will need to paint sometime. I haven't got a clue on color so I went to Como Park and Conservatory to get some pictures and possibly inspiration for the walls...I didn't get anything to inspire my redecorating, but I got a few pictures that I like. There's a butterfly garden at the park that is absolutely amazing...They're everywhere. Makes me want a macro lens - but they're just too expensive to buy on a whim (especially now that I'm going to be tempted to horde my money and do my part to contribute to the recession - or "lack of growth"...semantics, whatever). Anyway - here are my captures of the weekend. I really need to get out and shoot more.
