26.2

Happy Marathon Day! Maybe someday I'll be conquering heartbreak hill on the third Monday in April but not this year :)

I am busy trying to conquer my life at the moment. I have been running a bit of a marathon over the past 2-3 weeks trying to stay afloat.

The presentation went really well! I was indeed nervous and some people could tell, others said they couldn't tell. Oh well, I got my point across, I annunciated and I didn't use notes. So for those things I am pretty proud of the whole experience.

My presentation was about a personal success story around my efforts with SEO. S E Say what? Well don't worry, part of the presentation was dedicated to explaining wtf Search Engine Optimization is all about.

I spoke to sheer frustration around a long period of time where results were stagnant against an immense amount of work that I was putting in. And the happy ending? 75% growth in dolla dolla bills y'all. The company's dolla's, unfortunately. 75% pay raise? A girl could dream.

In the aftermath of all things 'company day' two Fridays ago, I officially announced to my superiors and coworkers that I am moving to live with my (wonderful, delightful, handsome, perfect) husband in Denmark at the end of May. (can't wait babe!)

This has been a long time coming and personally I am ecstatic! But there is always a little fear of the unknown. Leaving a career path here and just have to hope it'll all kick back off over there. Keeping the faith... I have some good people  from my company and my parent company lobbying for me so I'm crossing my fingers it all works out with a transfer to corporate in Denmark! :D

Moral of the blog post - running 26.2 miles or moving your entire life across an ocean are both a little daunting, exhilarating and full of potential. If you put in all the hard work, you have to have the confidence that you will not only 'pull it off' but prosper as well.

Good luck runners!
