Single/Working Mom

Is it Friday yet? This is the question I have been asking myself since Monday. It's been a long week to say the least. I just got back on Monday from spending the weekend in Seattle at my dear friend Amanda's wedding. While it was fun and good to hang out, I am tired. They say you always need a vacation from your vacation, which is totally true. So I got back Monday afternoon, only to have Randy leave early Tuesday morning for NY. Not only do I not like the fact that I got to see my husband for less than 24 hours but I also started my new job on Tuesday. So this week has really been a balancing act of being mom, working, going to PTO meetings and everything else in-between. Not fun!
Hats off to all the working/single moms out there! Definitely not my cup of tea! Hopefully things will settle down next week as we get back to a more  normal schedule. It's just been super crazy around here with me starting my new job.
Speaking of which, yes, I have a new job that I am super duper excited about. I am working as the Marketing and Communications Specialist for the Girl Scouts of Historic Georgia. It's part-time with Fridays off! The best part, I now get paid to be on facebook and twitter! How cool is that! And I get to play around on their website! I love it! I haven't worked in the communications field in over 7 years. While I have enjoyed teaching Spanish to all my little ones, I have missed the creative side of things.
God is Good All the Time! It truly is amazing how He works in my life. I know for a fact that I would not have this job if it wasn't for God leading me in this direction. I didn't even apply for this position, I had applied for another position listed on their website but they saw that I was more qualified for this position instead. Praise the Lord!! He knew what I really needed. Well on that note, I am going to call it a day and head to bed. Hopefully God willing, tomorrow will be a better day!
