I wrote a post a few days ago, which I read back to myself this morning and quickly deleted. It was a little Negative Nancy, and that's not the vibe I want to portray here. Things in my life are slowly getting figured out and though I do get frustrated at the snail-pace, I'm happy that I'm reaching some conclusions.
This Saturday will be my first day 'working' for the designers down the street. I'm not going to get paid for it, but I'm thinking of my time there as an investment. It's not like I get paid on Saturdays anyway. My goal is to get a more 'hands-on' experience in interior design, obviously my first experience with it was not so good... I worked for a crazy lady. So, while I'm still working for Fancy Tile Showroom, I'll be able to figure out if this industry is the place for me once and for all.
There are some things scheduled for the next few weekends, but eventually I would like to get into a routine of an every-other Saturday trade-off between the designers and the ranch. Obviously, I would need the occasional Saturday to myself, and then it's just a matter of which thing I can skip out on for that weekend.
In addition to going to the ranch every-other Saturday, I will try to volunteer there for only half a day. So, at least I will have the better part of the afternoon/evening to myself. This will be hard to get the owner of the ranch to understand, but it's got to happen.
See? I'm not completely stuck.
P.S. I'm an Auntie now, and I have to set a good example for my little nephew one day.
