I am finally going to have a reasonable amount of income flowing in!!! Woot woot!!! I will start my new jobs on March 17th! Here is what I am up to these days:
My job at GDI continues to move along, but painfully slow. I work hard to get my work done in my, not to exceed 20 hour work week [ sometimes it has been less L ] My schedule at GDI is 0700-1100, Monday through Friday.
My job at Group Home #1 consists of me picking up kids from school, taking them to doctor's appointments, and doing in-home counseling, and various other duties (light cleaning, light cooking). My schedule here is 1200-1800, Monday through Friday.
My job at Group Home #2 (Yes, the same company hired me for an additional position) is to make sure the kiddies stay in bed. My schedule here is 2300-0700 Friday and Saturday. It is the same group home, but different position.
It is going to be busy, but there is still plenty of time for fun! My roommate asked, "When are you going to live?" I told her there is plenty of time for that. I get off work at six everyday when people are still commuting home from work, and will have plenty of time for play. Just because she likes to sit at home all day and watch the tele, doesn't mean she's making time to "live." That's just my opinion. We obviously have different definitions of what “living” means, and that’s okay. Wouldn’t want to be the same as everyone else, hey?
I am really looking forward to my new jobs, because I think that they will be very fulfilling and I will be able to be a positive role model for these children. Maybe, just maybe, my life experiences will help me to better identify with them.
I am changing my training schedule, since I usually go to karate on Tuesdays and Thursdays at 1715. Fortunately, there are Monday and Wednesday night classes at 1945, oh yeah!!! I can still be Ninja with my other Ninjas!!! With karate on Mondays and Wednesdays, and Volleyball on Thursdays, swimming in the mornings, sewing on Tuesday evenings, how is that not living? Doing the things I enjoy doing and still having time for handling all my other business, sounds pretty fantastic to me! Now that I have a basketball hoop in the back, I will totally be able to shoot the rock whenever I want! Granted, the hoop is a bit bent, but it should work well enough!
FYI – It is all about playing basketball in the rain!!!
