No job

I have not posted in a LONG time. At least not posted anything I would deem valuable reading material. I can't promise the following will deliver any better.
I am still looking for a job. Way back in February I decided to return to school in the fall which led to months of uncertainty with a job for me. Being a nanny and understanding the need for consistency in a kids life, it was very difficult for me to tell my nanny family I was leaving. They were very supportive and proud of me.
Which leads me to my present state of pickleness. I am trying to secure a job for the fall before I head to Newfoundland for vacation. I think I will look forward to my vacation if I have something in place before I leave. I know that may or may not be the case but here's hoping.
I've had a few interviews for various positions. Some of them were a definite no, some I think I would enjoy. I had an interview yesterday for a children's ministry director position. It seemed like a good fit but there was just something inside me that knew it wasn't right. For one, I would have to leave my current church, not something I'm prepared to do right now. For another, I don't think I'm ready to have my job be my church and my church be my job again. For a third and final reason, I understand a little bit about what building a children's ministry looks like and it's more than a part time 2 days a week job. I cannot make that kind of investment right now.
So here we are. I have been home with Brody for the last 2 weeks. Staying at home is highly overrated unless there is something/someone to care for. Brody can feed himself and knows what he should and shouldn't chew on for the most part.
So today, my big plans are household duties - laundry, tidying up, and I'll stop at that. I don't want to overexert myself!

I have an interview tomorrow, wish me luck.

    Let God lead you to the right job. Trust that God will make the way. What are you? Chop liver? Take time to care for yourself. Cleaning up is a workout. You never know how your post could help someone else. Like about the pops. I use them for ice packs and snacks. I am learning to spend time with God too.

    Putting twin pops on headache and sore spots really works. Thing are challenging right now. Had to learn care for myself. Just like I told you. God is always on time. Trust Him.
