"Sing along if you want to - Cry if you have to"


I am SO excited about finding new opportunities in Ohio. I have a lot to discover and once Chris leaves for Alabama, LOTS of time to explore the area.

I am still at the point where I am not always 100% sure what to do with my time. I keep googling to look for leads on hot spots, parks, jobs, theaters, classes etc. So far I have been happy cooking, shopping, and getting things set up in our new space, but the time is coming where I've got to join a book club or something =)

Looking for a job with my degree (educational theatre) is interesting because I really do feel that I can do whatever the heck I want to with it. I do however sort of agree with my mom's remark that people are not looking for me so I need to look for them. It's true that finding a job will take effort on my part, but I do think people are looking for me; they just don't know I'm here. Its time to get the word out.

I am not entirely sure which direction I want to go in or when I want to start. Chris will be out of town for 5 weeks so I have been given 5 free weeks before creating a routine.

I have pretty much always managed to keep myself busy. But before the other day I didn't realize how necessary contributing to something is to me or how sensitive I would be about not having a job outside our home. Chris came home the other day casually saying "I went to work today what did you do" WOW talk about waterworks. Word to the wise husbands, don't make that mistake. No matter how you say it, it will be heard as sass. After profuse apologies I think he got the idea that staying at home cooking and cleaning is both a job, a joy, and a sacrifice.

My goodness.
