I am starting a new season in my life. I know it. I can feel everything changing. I feel like my life has been stuck in the deep freeze of winter, and all of a sudden spring has sprung and everything is becoming new and shiny and sparkly again. It is crazy to feel and see the changes that are happening. It's also a little scary to see how complacent I had become with the way life was. I hope that I never let myself fall asleep like that again. Life is too short to let it while away being lazy and bored. I need to be doing things, learning things, and helping people. It is not acceptable for me to just want to work and go home and hide away.
I start a new job next week. While it isn't in non-profit like I had hoped I would do, it is definitely where God has sent me. It has better pay, better benefits, and I will be working over nights so I will not have to figure out how to cover child care this summer. I know it will be hard to work over night, but I also think that it will be a good change for me to be able to stay home with my daughter for the summer. Plus, once school starts it will be an awesome fit. I will be there every morning to get her on the bus, and I will be there every afternoon to get her off the bus, and I will be there every evening to put her to bed. That is incredible. I can sleep while she is at school. I am still trying to figure out what to do about the hour span between when my mom leaves for work and when I will be getting home, but I will figure it out somehow. There will be an opportunity that will present itself when I need it. I just need to keep looking.
