This turned out to be the year. I gave my notice. Last day of work will be shortly before Christmas.
No matter how many great things I hope to look forward to, it is still a huge loss, with the first few weeks post announcement the saddest.
My career has spanned over 2 decades, not including the schooling. It has allowed me to build a lot of relationships, gotten to know generations of family members, walked alongside many through difficult times.
Have received a number of heartfelt messages and well wishes which continue to trigger tears. It won't be the easiest emotionally the remaining months. There is a lot of history there and I don't do well with goodbyes.
