Hi all-
I just want to check in and let you know what's going on with me. Work has been crazy lately! We just got back from Mardi Gras holidays, so hopefully things will be getting back to normal soon. I love my job, and I feel great about what I do, but there is a problem. I work for a non-profit, which makes me non-profit. It is rewarding work, but it just doesn't pay well. I have been looking into some part time work to supplement my income so that I could stay at this job. My student loans are in forbearance, but that will end in June, and I will have to start paying. I can't do that on my salary. I had even considered joining the national guard as an option, but that didn't pan out. So this Sunday, the perfect job opening came up with another non-profit firm that I do alot of work with. The pay would be enough for me to cover the student loans, and I would still be able to do this kind of rewarding work. I REALLY don't want to work at a law firm- been there, done that, hated it. This job opportunity really feels like the next logical step in my career that will provide me the money I need, room for advancement, and none of the things I hated about working at a firm while still allowing me to work in domestic violence. When I was looking for work a couple of years ago, this job that I have now came about at the perfect time, and it was the only job I even applied for. It really feels like God is presenting me with this opportunity and that I should take it. I really wasn't looking to make a move this soon, but I can't let this job pass me up in the hopes that something else will come along before June. Keep your fingers crossed!
Other than that, all is well.
Hugs,
Lane
