What Do I Do Now?

After 6 1/2 years, next Thursday will be my last day working at our church.  I have loved my job there, and the people I have worked with.  But this particular season of my life is done, and it’s time to move on to something different.

So…what do I do now?

I’m applying for a couple different jobs at the school our kids go to, jobs that would only have me working when they are in school.  Perfect!  I don’t know yet how this will pan out, so I’m waiting, and praying, and trusting.

Chad’s solution is that I write more, though I don’t see how that is a financial option… I shared with him that I love his support in my writing, but it sometimes scares me because I’ll probably disappoint him.  I probably won’t write a book or earn one dime doing this.  Then he said the most wonderful words to me.  “You’re already successful if you encourage just one mom on your blog.”  I love him.

I’m excited, nervous, a wee bit scared, and sad to not see my dear friends at work three days a week.  But I believe this is what’s next for me.  I just don’t know what comes after that.  Maybe be prepared for some random, rambling posts from a rather bored me 🙂
