curve balls

It's interesting how just when you think you are settling in to some semblense of a routine, WHAM! You get hit by a curve ball. I got home from Mexico, planned out my week of working in the office Monday Tuesday Thursday, and at Wavetronix Wednesday Friday. Then I got a call from the daycare--a spot has opened up and guess who scored an interview? How would this work? I'd work at the daycare in the mornings on the days I work at the office in the afternoon. It's all just too perfect.

But, then the question arises--can I work THREE jobs? Sure they are all part time, but that's still quite a bit. Can I handle that? Can I handle working at a daycare, then going straight to an office job, and on the days I don't do that, working at Wavetronix for 9 hours assembling tiny parts? There's not a lot of down time in there kids, and I've realized how much I like my down time.

I guess that anyone who hopes for smooth sailing in life can expect some big waves to come in. Life isn't smooth, it's messy and choppy and challenging. You think you've got it all figured out when WHAM! There's that curve ball factor. I guess that all you can do is learn to deal with the bumps, the questions and the changes. Holding on to what you know, sometimes isn't going to help you too much.

Thank goodness for the element of faith in this crazy world. Knowing that whatever ends up going down, somehow it's all going to work out in the end. All the questions don't need to be perfectly answered with the words chiseled in stone. Feelings change, perceptions change, people change, this is an ever changing world we live in. So the answers will change too.

Apparently it's time for me to learn how to deal with curve balls kids. Wish me luck.

Love,
