Well I guess it's time to explain myself. For the past several months I've hinted at my life needing... well some change. I was happy with a lot of aspects of my life and unhappy with a lot of aspects in my life. I finally decided me and only me could make this change. I owed it to myself, my husband, my family and even my sweet friends who constantly are soo supportive to make a change. So it began...
The job hunt. Yes... the most difficult, zero results, frustrating hunt known to man kind. At least in Atlanta with a 9.3% unemployment rate, zero connections and I know little about the city. So it began. Qualifications:
*Shorter commute (currently I'm at 2-3 hours a day)
*Something semi related to my career path/ goals (marketing, PR, events, coordination, etc)
*Something I could actually enjoy, fully dive into and gain something in return
*Different environment- maybe younger, not so corporate stuffy
*Different hours- I would like to see my husband more than 15 minutes a day (literally)
Sooo off it went.... after 200+ emails, applications, deperation within the past few months the good Lord has shown me HIS timing verus MY timing and....
I wish I could explain in words the relief, the joy, the lack of stress and the happiness I have about all of this. My last day at my job now is June 17th. I decided to take 2 weeks off to just relax, get a LOT of things accomplished and regroup before starting the new job July 5th.
It was a LOT of work, tears, stress and heartache. It wasn't easy. But it wasn't up to me. It wasn't my plan or my choice but God knew what I needed, what I wanted and what was best for our lives right now. There was no celebration, no how proud we are of you, no nothing.... Just me myself and I trying to make something of a career for myself. Trying to support hubs through school and trying to live out life through the Lord.
