Whirlwind

Tuesday, July 12, 2011
I haven't blogged in a while because there is SO much on my mind I just don't know where to start; so I guess I will start from the beginning.

During Day Camp, some of the ladies were talking about being sore because they had done kickboxing that morning.  I looked up the website to they gym they were talking about and was just browsing around.  They bought out a huge building that they are moving their gym into... I kept looking and came across the childcare description.  It said, "2 'Xtreme Kids' childcare areas... with healthy lifestyle activities only and a WiFi study area; Xtreme Kids program will promote focusing on the importance of health and physical activity starting at a young age.  This really caught my attention, so I decided to send a message to a guy that I knew worked there.  From the information I received it sounded amazing!  So, I decided to apply for the job.  I made a list of all the pros and cons... the pros outweighed the cons.  I was secretly hoping the get the job... but then I started to second guess myself and what I was doing.


I finally got a call and set up an interview.  The lady I had the interview with said that the staff were gonna go through all the applicants interviews and whoever got a call the next day would get a second interview.  I left work on Thursday with that feeling that I did not get the job and I was okay with it.  I got home and I got the call... :) ...She said that she felt confident enough in me and that I did not need a second interview. :)

Before I got the job offered I asked God NOT to open this door if this was not the place that I was supposed to... but He did open the door... and yet I still questioned Him

I was second guessing myself all weekend... praying that I was choosing the wrong thing.  I talked to a lot of people about this decision... they all told me to go for it, take a leap of faith, because if I didn't then I would definitely regret it.

 So, Monday morning I told my boss the situation and it did not go at all like I had hoped or expected.  I will not elaborate on this!


I will miss my co-workers and quite a few of my kids at TMF!  But I am sure that I would have regretted not taking this new job!  This is part of what I want to do with my life.  I will be out of my comfort zone, but you only ever grow as a person when you are out of your comfort zone!  This will get me one step closer to what I want to do with the rest of my life and most people are happy for me and excited about what I'm doing, but there is that one person that didn't even give me the chance to explain or care to hear anything about it. :-/




I'm excited about what the future holds!  But what I'm not so excited about is that for the next 5 weeks I will be working mornings for my new job and working at TMF for the night shift with studying in between.  Needless to say it is going to be INSANE for a while!!




I am sure that I have left something out on this post that I wanted to say, but I cannot remember.  Off to read for class.
