Silver Lining

So last week I lost a overnight Nanny gig because I apparently charge too much. Wow did that really tick me off, but I kept myself pretty calm.  I know everything happens for a reason.
If I would have been watching their kids this week, I would have missed seeing Jordy Nelson at work last night, wouldn't have today off to relax and get my apartment ready for guests and octoberfest. I wouldn't have the opportunity to Nanny for a different family all day friday, or be able to work my kids club shift at work.

Last night I got a message from a different family to day sit for 7 days. I am ecstatic!!! I love the kiddos so much, and I will make. Nearly double what the first family was paying. They are a great bunch of kids!!! I am so excited to see them again.

I feel I made have lost the point of this post. I am Happy. And when I'm not happy I am trying to work on my perspective. I have faith if I keep moving forward, everything will fall into place.
Next thing to work on is finding a new job!

Paper is not a myth

    So I have not been on here in what seems to be forever. I have exactly 1 week until I am 28 years old. Everything is good. I am alive and enjoying life.
     Don't get me wrong, it has been tough, but I am better for it. I moved out of my parents over a year ago.. I love my urban apartment, or as urban as it can get in the Fox cities. I am a single lady living in a 1 bedroom apartment that I have made into my own creative space. I can finally paInt every week if I want to. Today I did this. Simple but therapeutic.
