Last Thursday was a big day in
the Pace household. Very unexpectedly, Ryan
and I both received promotions. I
mentioned a few weeks ago that Ryan had been studying for his life insurance
license and needed to pass to be eligible for a promotion. Thankfully he passed! So while, we knew a promotion was in the
works, he was quite secretive about the timing.
My promotion, on the other hand, came out of left field. Monday morning my boss pulled me into his
office to inform me of an opportunity that had become available at one of our
properties in Buckhead. So, we were both
promoted within a matter of minutes on Thursday, a little surreal.
I have to brag on my husband a little
here. He worked for Enterprise Rent-a-car
for five years. That is no easy
task! He was promised promotion after
promotion with little to no follow through on them. They treated him poorly, paid him poorly, he
worked long hard hours with so little respect and he never complained. We were so fortunate and thankful to find his
current company and we have been blessed with the mutual respect and admiration
the company provides. It really is a
dream job. He works so hard to prove for our family and is so supportive of me everyday. I am so blessed/proud to call him my husband.
On an unrelated note, my friend's mom has been battling breast cancer for the better part of a year. She has undergone a double mastectomy and a very aggressive form of chemo. It seems there has been complication after complication and she has ended up in the hospital several times throughout this process. She finally completed her chemo and we thought she was in the clear and would start radiation shortly. Unfortunately, she ended up in the hospital last night with shingles which they fear has caused encephalitis; they are currently awaiting results of the MRI to confirm. I am asking that you lift my friend Jenny and her family up in prayer, I know they could use them.
