I have weighed all the pros and cons and really thought about the idea of me moving to California and getting a place with Micah and going to school, and I hate to admit it but it doesn't seem possible. We would have to live somewhere pretty crappy and I would have to work my ass off, while also going to school. It's just apealing to me less and less the more I think about it. I don't know how to tell this to Micah. I don't have the money. And getting an apartment isn't that easy.
So I think I want to stay here for a while and make this job at Port Resources count. Like, a couple years. Just work work work. Maybe take a couple classes but mostly just work. When I really have some experience, I can go out to California and get a job as a nanny! Like, right now I am a step above a nanny. I do dishes, laundry, cook, and bathe teenage boys with developmental dissabilities. It's one-on-one and I have to make sure the kid I am with is clean, fed, safe, and happy. It's everything a nanny would do and then some. So when I have more experience and am really ready for California, being a nanny would give me a place to stay and really nice pay. And then I could finally go to school!!! Think of all the rich people there!!! Like, why wouldn't you want me as your nanny if I am going to school for child development, am all kinds of certifications (BHP, CRMA, CPR/first aid, TCI...) and have had 2 years experience taking care of autistic children. That's legit right there.
My schedule at work is really good. I like it. I do thursday from 9pm to 11am. Friday from 9pm to 9am. And Sunday from 9pm to 11am. That's 40 hours in 3 shifts! That means I can work at the primary school Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday.
Anyway tonight I was walking out of my house to my car and I completely wiped out because my deck was FROZEN!!! I am so not ready for winter.
