So, I quit my job. It was a good thing I think. It was a lot of stress. It is hard doing something that you are overqualified for. Not that there is anything wrong with mopping floors and scrubbing toilets. I mean, it is an honest living. I guess it is just pride and the fact that I could be doing something better. It was just causing a lot of problems between everyone. I was permanently in a bad mood the last couple of months and since I put in my notice, I am so happy. I feel like I can “be” with my kids more and things aren’t so stressful. I can’t wait until my two weeks are up and we can get back to being a family and having meals together and waking up together on Sat. mornings……

I applied for another position. It pays o.k. It is just really intense. I just don’t think that I can deal with that right now. Maybe a couple of years down the road. I mean, I stay at home so that I can be with my kids and my family. In a couple of years, I will work and we will have more money and life will get easier but for now, I want to be with my kids. I guess if nothing else, this has been a good way to really find out that I like staying home with my kids. I wasn’t really sure before. I mean, I liked staying home but I always kind of had a yearning to go to work.

So, down the road, if there is ever a position open at the airport in the office and they say it is o.k. to work part-time, I think I would take it. For now, I am happy to stay home and take care of my family!
