The Best Decade Ever Still Continues

Last month I wrote a blog post called, 'Joy Came in the Morning,' the post was about me quitting a job that made me miserable and feeling like I was trapped in my own home. I don't want to rehash all of those feelings, but if you want to read the post, please go read it, and if it can help one person choose themselves rather than a paycheck, then I've done a good thing by sharing my story.

So, I'm in job hunting mode right now; I use one day to send out my resume and the following day is used to do assessments and/or attend webinars, and I continue this system Monday thru Friday and take weekends off, to delve into things I love and enjoy throughout the day/weekend. It could be listening to podcasts, listening to/watching YouTube videos, and/or listening to music while I do household chores. 

Not having a job right now, actually hasn't been real stressful for me, yet--I've only been looking for a week, but maybe I'll never feel stressed about this moment in time, and just take everyday in stride.   

Be happy that I have my health, a roof over my head, food on the table, and most of all, my sanity(cause I almost lost it, with the last job).

Besides having my husband's support, I'd like to thank some online communities (YouTube channels)for their support. Stephanie Perry and the crew, I absolutely love the fellowship we have on  Saturday mornings, and our weekday co-working sessions over at Stephanie Perry Media----the space is truly phenomenal! I've been doubling my time learning French. Even though my co-working time is usually spent with French lessons, I've become inspired to be more intentional about getting organized with my creative adventures, as well. 

Other YouTubers I would like to thank are: Alecia Renece The Artist for her calm soothing unique perspective on life. 

Life After Layoff shout out to you for using your experience in HR to show us job hunters how to act as a free agent.

Finally, I would like to thank PT Pop for all of his hilarious call center videos....all I have to say is, you'll never have to work in another call center again, PT Pop, and you've found your niche. 

Now it's my time to find that next job that'll help me finance my dream of buying a daycare franchise(I've been in chidcare before, loved it!)buying more stocks and other investments, and making plans for a house my sister and I inherited. Seems like a lot, but I'm only in year three of the best decade ever, time is still on my side.
