I just quit 1/2 my job

My job has been so incredibly stressful and time-consuming for the past several months. We've had so much work lately, I've had to both manage my office (14 employees), then pick up the additional structural engineering jobs that nobody else could get to. Last month, I ended up billing ~160 hours, plus handling my management responsibilities, so I literally worked 2 full-time jobs! I've worked every night/weekend for the past several months, and I'm just completely burned out. Plus, I know Elizabeth is getting to the stage where she's going to start remembering things, and I really don't want her to only remember me working all the time!

After praying about it and discussing it with David, I decided to tell them that I was going to give up my manager's position and convert back to being a full-time producer. This would eliminate 1/2 of my current job responsibilities, plus the engineering projects are what I enjoy - the management activities basically just involve cleaning up other people's messes. Plus, if I'm only doing engineering work, my travel will be a lot less and I'll be able to work from home a lot more, so I'll get to see my family a lot more.

So, I did it - I told them I'd continue in my current role for 1 month to give them time to find someone else and transition me out, then I'm going to be a full-time producer. They were disappointed (and tried really hard to talk me out of it), but they finally agreed to do it. And - get this - they're not going to change my salary at all. My request came at the right time - they just lost several engineers and are desperate to keep the rest of us. So, basically, I just lost 1/2 my workload, I'm going to be able to see my family a lot more, and my salary isn't changing. WOO HOO! I feel like such a burden has been lifted off my shoulders!
