ups and downs

Kay I'm back. I'm on such a roller coaster... it feels a little out of control and I don't know where it is going. So:

The UPS:
  • I became an auntie to a beautiful new neice on November 27th... life is good... baby is good... new family is good. I'm definitly a little envious, but it's so good to have a baby in the family close by, it has been a long time.
  • I got to spend time with a lot of people that I hadn't seen in a long time during a wedding, the road trip before and after, and at the B-house 'little' christmas get together. It was good times and I appreciated seeing everyone and being encouraged by them and their friendship.
  • I got to spend a weekend at camp as a GUEST which was good, and refreshing, it was fun to be 'away' for a little bit and try to forget about life. The speaker was also really good and challenged me. Good times.

The DOWNS:

  • I have had two interviews in the last two weeks and have not been offered a job yet. ARG. I am disappointed and sad. I don't know where this is heading.
  • I don't know what to do for the rest of winter, do I keep subbing?? Work somewhere else full time? Work somewhere part time? Go away somewhere and try to figure things out?? I'm confused, and overwhelmed, and I want change - but change to what?????
  • My life is not where I want it to be and I don't know how to get it there.

I guess my ups and downs sort of even each other out. But I'm getting a little seasick on this ride. The holidays are coming. Here's to looking at the bright side.

Cheers.
