Things that make you go Hmm ..
Permalink  

Ok .. so I think I miss stepped with the guy I'm seeing .. nothing that can't be recovered from however UGH UGH UGH .. I am not good at the dating thing or talking to guys thing really.  No that's not true .. I can talk to guys .. once they are there I don't know what to do with them .. LOL!

There is some interesting news on the work front .. now I love my job however .. I have many days that I am literally drooling and my eyes are rolling in the back of my head out of sheer boredom this is a BAD place for me to be .. this is where things like having multiple texts from 3 different guys is going on and why I had to shut down my dating site stuff because it was way to easy to just become engrossed in this stuff. 

I'm BORED .. UGH!!!  HATE IT!!

Well out of the blue a girlfriend of mine texts me and asks if I want to come work at her company.  Great position, pay will have to come up we will see about that and then challenging so that would be a good thing.  When I say this is happening fast I mean my life moves faster than techno color at times.  I sent my resume yesterday, waiting for a phone call today and I will interview tomorrow.  If I get hired I will start next week or the week after.  It's CRAZY fast. 

There are pros and cons to this position.  My bigger issue is going to be the kids right now I can take off as needed and deal with kiddo stuff.  I really have no responsibility and can do whatever I want.  The boredom for me is what will be the killer .. I will wind up getting myself into trouble .. LOL .. I'm good for it. 

So I'm just looking for clarity of mind in making a decision.  Yes, I tend to go ok .. the God of my understanding opened a door and all I have to do is walk through.  I'm like that with everything .. lol .. personal relationships as well .. LOL. 

Anyway, .. as you can imagine I tend to get into a lot of trouble and yet I have amazing experiences too. 

Other than that it's been ok .. saw a girlfriend of mine last night and got to thinking maybe being single isn't so bad .. LOL.  I am having fun and I just have to remind myself of that .. lol. 

Hugs S :)

Keep having fun lady! NO reason to tie yourself down with one guy anyway especially with possible job changes, kids, etc. Believe me, single is a great place to be. Don't get me wrong, I love my bf but we have conflicts and areas of conversation that I dread at times because he pushes me in ways that challenge me and some days, I just don't want to be challenged or to think outside of the box or to declare my career path right now or whatever.

My point being this: falling in love is a wonderful experience and I am so glad that I got a chance at love again.....but staying in love and keeping it healthy and vibrant and good for both parties, that takes work. So, enjoy the dating stuff and just let God bring the right people into your life as He sees fit.

Good luck with the job stuff, too!

Job decisions are hard i keep doing what i am doing
Because i can self support and i have health Insurance.

Is it a healthy and good way I live, No. Where i live
good paying jobs are hard to Find so i do what i can.

I could move to a new area just not ready yet i still
Have unfinished business here.

I would like to move to a warmer climate who knows,
i am not getting any HP Nudges except keep healing
and growing.

Sounds like you are having fun with the dating scene
And the going out with friends. You give me hope:)

Hugs

(((((Serenity)))))  backing up and looking at the picture very often reveals stuff I took for granted and options I never considered.  I hate boredom because for me it leads to brain death...UGH!!!  Today I don't say yes!! as fast as I use to.  I have had so many careers and jobs it borders on the definition of being fickle.  God I actually admitted that.  I got Hmmmm all the time and now am gonna listen to raisins for a while.   lol   (((((hugs))))) wink

Hey (((Serenity))) - it sounds to me as if you are choosing between Good and Good!!! I had to be reminded of these simple things when I came to program as before I was often choosing between unknown and unsure! Roll with it and if one isn't what you want/need, there are more good choices out there.

I love when you post as you present the many open doors that have planted in front of you on your journey. You 'see' them all, process them and there you go again. It's been great watching you grow and to see all that you are open to as you grow!

Keep having fun - I too am sending positive thoughts!!

Do say some prayers because it seems like this isn't the right time after going on (my girlfriend that is) no phone call?? So I am very confused. We will see .. I haven't heard anything as of yet it doesn't mean I won't interestingly enough I did get a call about another job which I'm going to pursue for a bit and see if it's somewhere I want to work. Choices there are always choices.

Hugs S :)
