Disclaimer: This post is not saying I'm not extremely thankful for the opportunity to stay at home.


Today I've been thinking about how my career plans have changed and how I'll be a stay at home mom for the next 2 years. I remember having such high hopes of finding a job when we moved to SC a year ago. I applied to numerous jobs and went on as many interviews ...but no bites..  See, I've always been very financially independent so when months passed and I didn't have any job offers it was pretty depressing.

Even now I feel kind of down thinking about not having a job/career. When I talk to my working friends I feel like I'm missing out on advancing in a career. I'll admitted I question if I'll even have a decent career again.

Now, I didn't do anything spectacular when I did work. Many of my jobs after college were at mental health clinics and my last job was working at a child development center, aka daycare. So I just worry with the gap of employment and how it will make it difficult to find a job using my degree because we all know experience is key to landing a lot of jobs.

I have been doing some volunteer secretarial work at my church. I format the monthly newsletters and design flyer's to advertise upcoming events. So that keeps my mind busy.

Ugh, i guess this is just a random post expressing my concerns about something that I don't have to deal with for another 2 years...

Hope everyone has a blessed week..I know the weekend always goes by so quickly

XOXO
