“I wanna write more”
Continues to sit on his phone and ignore the world
There’s often times that I find myself picking up my phone purely because of idle hands and little all else. Just a desire to keep busy and distract myself from existence or something. That seems to be common at my age and in the current day(s) we live in.
But in turn there’s not a lot of updates to really be had. I’m still trying to figure out any sort of career path. From 15 years of culinary then moving into the legal cannabis industry, there’s a lot of opportunities but also a lot of risk. The players that are at the table right now might not be at the table next week y’know?
Even given our (work’s) current trajectory, I’m not sure if it will still exist next year. Matter-of-fact I fully doubt it will exist next year. We have two other facilities with hundreds upon hundreds of square feet (Literally our grow facility is more than a Million Square feet) and we’re sitting here, basically a double wide trailer (and change) sitting in a gravel lot. It doesn’t take a bachelors of economics to see that we’re gonna be sold next. It just makes sense to me. 2 cutting edge high tech facilities and then Grandpa’s Diner sitting there in the shadows.
Regardless if that’s the situation, there’s a culinary gig that I’ve been looking at for the House of Commons which could be pretty cool but I’m stuck in this… Bubble… of priorities right now. I have a 3 year old about to go into school and another baby due any day now so like… career focus seems like a 10 mile wide long shot. Almost “What’s the point” and while I get that some people can balance both, I’m just not sure that I want to. I was raised by two heavily career focused people and it was not fun for me.
As my wife says, we raise our children to make sure that they have the childhood we always wanted.
Or Something.
Also I’m really good at management but I hate the added pressure that comes with. It’s a while push and pull of desires and priorities.
What to do What to do.
Just keep swimming right?

I told my husband "let's screw our son and future kids up in whole new ways!" As we discussed our parents and very different upbringing and what we want to do differently.
