Today, I did it. I turned in my resignation from Astellas. Talk about a bitter-sweet ending to the past seven years of my life. I was so upset all morning. Everytime I started to think about it, I began to cry no matter how strong I was trying to be. Seven years is a long time. Astellas has been very good to me and I tried to be as professional as I could today. I met with Dean in person and told him. His expression about killed me. Unfortunately, I completely blind-sided him. It made me feel good as he asked me three different times if he could talk me out of it. In the long run, my fear is that the dermatology division will not be solvent in two years, let alone 3-4 yrs. I needed to do what is best for me and my family. During my meeting with Dean, I did provide him with a resume, all my appointments for the remainder of the year, updated office hours for the new hire. I want to help him make this transition as smooth as possible.
My new career awaits me at Endo Pharmaceuticals. I'm very excited and looking forward to a much smaller geography. This may even provide me the fortune to actually work out as opposed to driving in a car all the time. Novel thinking isn't it?
The boys are off to a busy week and thank goodness today is Wednesday. Yesterday was cute as we were in the car, Logan was listening to the music and goes, "Isn't this song by the naked ladies?" I couldn't help but laugh and he was referring to the band, Bare Naked Ladies, and yes, he was right about the song.
Have a great evening!
