Today is my last day of work. If I'm lucky enough it could be my last day of work ever. I have a lot of mixed feelings sitting here as I think about leaving Doug's Auto today for the last time.
Part of me is so excited to be able to have the next few weeks off before Matix comes. I'm looking forward to catching up on sleep and cleaning. I have a list of everything I want clean before he comes. I'll now be able to make Doug a good lunch for work and school and not just throw something together last minute like we usually do. I can't wait to be home with Matix all day and be able to watch him grow and develop....this is what I'm really looking forward to.
(This is Doug's coolest car...2005 Ford Gt)
The other part of me is going to miss the guys at work. I've spent so much time around them over the past 2.5 years. They are like family. Doug, my boss, and his wife Anne have treated me like a daughter from the minute I started working for him. He made sure my car was safe for my first winter here, always made sure I had a place to go for holidays, and teased me like my own dad would. Jake and Kirk, Doug's sons, have been like the two brothers I never had. When I told them I was getting married they told me if Doug(my Doug) ever did anything to hurt me they would come after him. Jake and Kirk have really made up for all the teasing from brothers I never had growing up. They all have been so good to me. I told them they wont ever really get rid of me, I'll still be coming back for oil changes, and when it gets warm I'll take Matix on a walk up to the shop for fun. They were my family away from home when I first got up here to Utah and they always will be like family to me.
