We are trying to find jobs, and a place to live in California! It is leading to a ton of searching and wondering what we are meant to do and the plans God has for us! If anyone knows of jobs you think we would be good at please let us know.
Also in that today as I drove the hour to work I was thinking about how I never felt I would be good in an office, the monotony would just kill me. My revelation was that we are in a holding pattern and that is a big part of our unhappiness in the job.
I get up
drive 1 hour to work
take care of kids
get maybe 1.5 hours of down time
take care of kids
drive home
take care of kids
go to sleep
. . . . and repeat it all over again!
Darren
gets up
takes care of kids
answers phone calls and makes some
watches tv
takes care of kids
goes to sleep
and while somedays it is mixed up and exciting, it mostly is draining and we count the hours until bed, or quite time. We are ready to have quite when we want it, to be able to decorate how we want, to be able to find things, and have a beer with dinner if desired. To come and go as we please, and see people with out having to juggle attitudes and time off and freedom. We know we are doing good things, and trying to keep a positive mind about it! God has a plan and it will all work out!
Thanks for being so honest.
