Okay...
Wow. I might not have a lot to say right now. Still kinda processing this past week.
I am currently working a Temp job from my own desk (kinda).
Temp=Temporary.
That's a pretty big deal to me right now. It's kinda funny, cause both jobs I work, I am working because I have a job, but I am also kinda filling in for people as well whenever they need someone. I know other people have gone this route before in our job history and such, but it kinda makes me wonder why everyone is talking about how bad this economy is in terms of trying to find a job. Sure, it's a tough place to find the job you want, but there are jobs out there... whether you want to do it or not is a different story.
Wow, I'm talking.
I guess I should probably mention that these past few months (well longer than that, like since August) have been real tough in terms of finding out where I should be, what I should be doing, and just getting the courage to get up and move. From about August to October of last year, I was unemployed. The first couple of weeks wasn't so bad because it was nice to rest from the hectic work from the summer. But after that, it was really hard for me to kinda sit at home and not do a whole lot while everyone was out of the house (I still live at home with the fam and sibs). So, when I got the weekend job and even got into the temp agencies, I was real excited to have an opportunity to work.
I think I've learned that I like to work and I generally feel like I have to be doing something more often than not. That's where I struggle with getting rest and taking it easy sometimes... but I think that's kinda what I'm going to have to learn how to do now: balance things out.
The coolest thing is this time is reminding me that my job that I have isn't guarrenteed (as many things, today). It's God's, and I need to remember that so I don't get into the mindset of being possessive about something that could easily be taken away from me. That's a tough thing to deal with on a daily basis, but I know that God is using this time to work through some issues in my heart to prepare me for whatever He's got planned for me.
I've definitely had a lot of thinking time lately, that's for sure.
Anyhoo, that is my update for now-ish. Until next time, cats and dogs...
