into: I'm a writer. I love to read, but I love to bring my thoughts to life in literature... I just haven't given myself the time to do it lately, so here's to this working out.
BLOGS
I'm just going to stop saying when I'll be back. As the saying goes, "Man plans, God laughs."
Hmm... where to start... I wanted to quit both of my jobs and almost did. I'm not one for dishonesty- but when is it okay to withhold information from the people that need to know? It's one of the few things I don't like about my job, but it was enough on it's own to make me consider leaving..
...and then I figured if I left one, why not the other? I love the people I work with, but the pay wouldn't have been worth the drive anyway...
and of course my lease is coming up, and I don't want to give up my home... but do I really want to put up with this place for another year? Move back home, get my stuff together, focus on school for a change... I really wouldn't need two jobs to do that, one would be plenty..
I took some time to think about my priorities. I thought about where I wanted to be within a year, five years, ten years and so on. And I realized that here is where I want to be.. and I can't quit until I find something better.. so it's just a matter of sucking it up and carrying on. I don't make the rules, but it's my job to uphold them...and now I'm on a bit of a mini vacation, so the objective is to relax and enjoy it..
The lazy week was wonderful!
I got an early birthday gift from my buddy
and then I bought a really early one for myself
And now I'm going to continue enjoying this time off..ish.
