I thought about doing a summary entry of who I am, what I do, what I have panned for the future but I think I'll do that in due time. Today is about focusing on the present, and what I should be doing to ensure that my future is secure.
I've been with the same company for a little over 4.5 years and I'm really beginning to think it's time to move on. Unfortunately, people my age just aren't with the same job for the length of their career. I feel like I'm burnt out and too old to be running a store with the crazy retail hours. I want nights and weekends off so I can do some traveling and just hang out. I already don't believe in working Sundays so that conflicts wit my lifestyle. (Not from a religious standpoint - I just believe in the old Blue Laws where Sundays were family days...or chill days. Apparently you're supposed to go to Church and everything, but I just want an excuse for everything to be closed.)
The past month hasn't been easy at work. Actually, it's never been easy, it's a very challenging operation to run. I like the challenge but at the same time I need a support structure that I don't feel like I have. Before moving to my current city, I ran a store for the same company in another city. My boss there was awesome. This one - not so much. Definitely not much of a team player. I'm certainly not saying that I'm the best and follow all directions perfectly (because some direction shouldn't be followed when it's bad) and I'm certainly not the easier to work for (as my staff would say) but I know what I'm doing and I've always been successful at tightening up an operation.
I was going to mow the lawn today but it's raining so I guess that's a no go.
Thursday I'm going to look at adopting a new dog. My dog is absolutely the best dog ever but I think he's bored with being alone. (Used to have two dogs until my ex and I spit up and he kept his and I kept mine.)
Time to start the day though I don't know what that entails...
