since i have no trouble piling all of my moments of angst and misery with you all- i figured you deserved to share in my happiness as well.
as you may or may not know, i had a really trying week. i manage corporate events for a large accounting firm and have only been there for a short time. this week was our annual firm meeting and although i pulled it off, i rode a pretty extreme emotional roller coaster earlier this week- see that drama unfold here: http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/325968-just-lost-all-feelings-of-accomplishment
a lot of the stess associated with this event was due to the fact that because it is an internal event, it is really supposed to be handled by HR and the social committee. my role as marketing coordinator is really supposed to only focus on external events. but about 3 weeks ago, it fell into the marketing department's lap bc it was turning into a trainwreck. and i guess this has happened in the past, but it has still remained primarily an HR dept handled thing.
well i was just informed that due to my "superb performance" on this project- the annual firm meeting will forever more be my responsibility. masochist that i am, that fills me with joy. i pretend like i can't deal with the stress, but secretly i love it. i am just feeling pretty amazing right now for being recognized and entrusted with this based upon what i was able to showcase this week. and i am really thankful for that- i was so messed up over seeing those photos from the event the other day that i totally couldn't enjoy all of the positive comments and praise that i was getting. people stopped me in the hall to say how much they enjoyed it, but i was so miserable that i couldn't feel proud. but now i really do.
just 3 months ago, i was at the lowest point i had ever been in my life. and then i started working on myself- trying to get to where i needed to be. i started MFP and started to lose weight. i got some confidence back, landed this job which at the time, i didn't think i could EVER get. and now- i feel like me again. i feel like someone who deserves to be happy, probably for the first time in my life.
i just wanted to share this awesome thing with the MFP "fam" since you all share in my not awesome things.
have a great day!!!!
