Decisions and questions
I need to decide if I want to pursue a job opening in a different division at work. There is a lot I like about my current job, but it isn't low stress and I don't think I'm good at leaving all my work stress at work... I'm not sure I'll like the new job, but it would be something different. If I want to pursue it then I still have to find out $ questions. I don't know if raises are on the same scale as what I've been receiving - which might inform my decision. And it wouldn't be as high profile as what I do now - but I'm not sure having a high profile job right now does anything other than effect my raises. I don't think there are any promotion positions within my existing division that I would be first in contention for, for years still. So if I'm stuck where I am, since Senior Sup and Manager openings don't come along all that often, then maybe it's a good idea to switch things up some.
I have a lot to think about.
Does anyone know it it's possible to have some version of post partum blues months after having your baby? I don't have any dangerous feelings, but lots of the blues and lots of... inertia? Unable to start since I don't have the momentum and then I get down because I can't seem to get anything done.
I'm just curious if there could be hormones effecting this. It's not like I just stopped breast-feeding or anything and that's effecting my hormones... Who knows. Maybe I'm just starting to come to terms with realizing I don't think I'll have any more children cause it's not a wise decision financially and for other reasons - but in my heart I know I want more and may be starting to mourn what I'll never have...
OK, I have a little lady who needs some story-time. That at least brings me contentment :)
