Sorry it's been a while...

I have really not felt much like blogging lately. Thank you to everyone with your kind words about my recent "bad luck" I think you are all right. Something new and fabulous will come along. I have been getting my resume out there and have had some really good leads for new positions so we will see what happens.

In the last week I have had a chance to really sit down and think. Maybe accounting isn't right for me. I have always wanted to work with kids...maybe a career change is in order. I went to a Job fair last week with my brother and sister in law and St. Joseph's orphanage. They are hiring for case workers. People to have direct contact with the children. To listen to them and care for them. This all sounded really good to me. I think I would really like a job like that. We will see where God takes me next. I have always had really good direction when it comes to jobs. Every job I have worked so far has sort of just fallen in front of me(if that makes sense). I don't feel like I have ever really had to "hunt" for a job. I think each place I have worked has helped me grow and learn new things about not only accounting but myself. At Ellison I learned that I can tolerate alot more than I ever thought I could. I would like to think it has given me some insight on how to deal with awful co-workers.

In the last week I have tried to accomplish alot around the house. I still have yet to tackle the bedrooms but I'm sure those are to come. Casanova is almost completely potty trained...it's alot easier to teach him when your home all day. :) I realized I can be even more of a penny pincher than I already was. Getting creative with dinners has been easier too. When there is no longer the option to run to the drive thru or order pizza it makes cooking a good meal alot more pleasurable. What we do to save extra money...I think I have cut out everything that can be cut. So now we wait and see.

I am considering babysitting for a while until to earn some extra money. Plus I never realized how boring it can be at home all alone. It's amost enough to make me go insane!!! I wish I had a little one to keep me company.

You're doing all the right things by getting yourself out there and by really thinking about what you'd like to do. And if you watch some kiddos on your home, you may find that it is right up your alley and exactly what you were looking for!
