I'm starting to feel like my life is spiraling out of control. Ok, so maybe it isn't totally out of control, but it sure feels like it sometimes. I'm going to be starting to work full-time in the near future and I'm not real sure how I feel about that. I'm working 4 days a week right now, but I really do enjoy my Fridays off so I can spend some quality time with Jack and Maggie. I'm really going to miss that. Half the time I feel like I can barely keep up and now my 1 extra day will be gone. Financially, it makes sense. I'm already so close to full time and there are so many benefits of working that 1 extra day. But the big twist is that I might also be changing jobs. This decision is totally stressing me out. I basically have to decide if I want to stay where I'm at or go back to my old job at Special School District. This decision is making me crazy. And did I mention that I don't handle change real well? Why can't I find a job that pays me to stay home with my kids?
As a result of this, it seems like my waistline is expanding quicker than ever. Let's just say I don't handle stress well. There is nothing like a piece of cake (or two) loaded with sugary icing that adds a little comfort to my life. This has got to stop! But balancing a job, graduate school, 2 kids (one who will not sleep through the night!), a husband and a househould has made it rather difficult to find time to take care of myself. What a lame excuse, I know. So I'm obsessing (and those of you that know me know that I'm good at this) over finding a treadmill that will go in our basement so I don't have an excuse anymore. I need to take care of myself.
So enough of my ranting about my crazy, stressful life. Let's just hope that things calm down and I make the right decision for my family in the next couple weeks. What is that saying? Oh yeah, "this too shall pass..."
