I am down to working two days a week in the facility as a companion caregiver. One day for eight hours and the following for five. I don't make much and, although I don't hate it, neither do I find it fulfilling. I'm ready to find a job more in line with what I love, and that is working with children.
In other news I am learning and hopefully growing in new and good ways. Life sometimes takes us down unfamiliar and scary backroads, but it seldom intends to leave us deserted and alone. Jesus promised He would never leave me nor forsake me and I am holding on to that promise. He will see us safely to the other side of the woods.
Finally, I am looking forward to a vacation in May. I will miss Williamson's recent claim to fame when Jenna Renae, of American Idol fame, is honored in the parade. Ah, well... The Cabinet Maker has a trip planned to her parent's house in NC at the end of April. Maybe he can seek her forgivness. Ha ha! I am flying to California to see Wanda. :0)
Yea for vacation, but I think you should have come to Texas to see your favorite niece Annie instead!
ReplyDeleteAnnie, that would be awesome! I am going to put Texas on my list of places to go next. Right on the top!

I know what it feels like being unemployed for me it is going on a year now without work & it has been a struggle however ...God is carring me through this storm which I do see the light at the end of the tunnel ....I pray that the job you seek will be a blessing to you !!!! I pray it is an open door of opportunity for growth !!! How exciting about your vacation too :)
ReplyDeleteWho would have though applying to play with and care for children, which I've done my entire life, could be so exasperating? God knows. He can open doors. If not, I'll just tend my chickens and collect eggs.

How are those chickens doing? How do they make out in the cold weather? Something will come along in the job market for you. You could have the cabinet maker make you a little stand and you could sell eggs!!:-) :-)

The chicken are about to move out of "Grandma's Room" and into the barn. I'm going to have to do some deep cleaning soon. They make a ton of dust. They are looking more and m ore like "real" chickens and less and less like babies every day. I think they're three weeks old now.
