I have come to the conclusion that I need to look for a real, live grown-up job. After all, I do have a college degree. I might as well use it. I have mixed emotions. On one hand, I am anxious to be doing something that is just me... not me and the boys. On the other hand, I want to be at home with them. I guess every working mom goes through this at some point.
I was not too thrilled until I found a positions helping disabled adults get community interaction. There are 2 jobs that I applied for. One is actually helping them get placed in jobs or volunteer positions to help them meet goals set for them by therapists. The other is just getting them to their jobs and out in the community either for shopping, volunteering or working. Now I am pretty excited. If I am going to leave my kiddos I want to do something that can make a difference. This seems pretty cool. I would have my own case load and It looks like they would be willing to work around my schedule for Tuesdays! They seemed pretty excited about me applying. I will have to wait and see what happens. Pray for us!
I have not worked for 4 years! Putting my resume together is kind of intimidating. I have helped, several people write their resumes, but when it comes to my own, I feel like it is not good enough! For this job, I just needed to fill out an application. I might still send them my resume.
I am getting nervous about money. Hans just started at Starbucks this week and won't get paid for a while. We were ill prepared for a job lay-off. With Hans getting diabetes this year, it seems like that threw us for a loop... or a fit, one of the two! We just need to keep praying.
On a side note, it looks like Tuesdays are turning into our day of getting caught up with friends. We have had good times with them the past two weeks. It makes for a long day, but it is good. Our Marriage class is perfect for us right now!
