Oh no I didn't!

I'm not taking a second job! Yay!

The thing is, I already work more than forty hours a week for my regular job.

And I'm under contract to write a book. Which is taking all of my free time anyway. And my free time? Pretty much consists of 8:45pm-11pm. And then like 1am, because that's when I get up because I can't sleep. But the rest of the time is devoted to my job and my family.

But with Jason's promotion? I don't feel any need to take on anything else. I can focus on my regular job (or finding another one, actually), my book, and my family.

Which is all I wanted anyway.



So. You know. Thank God for all that.

It's 4:21 here in LA and I'm UP. GROSS. Glad Jason got a promotion. And that you don't have to take a second job.

Yea, God! I'm so glad you don't have to work two jobs, well three...the book counts as #2.

I'm glad things are looking up.

If you happen to see the promotion Gods around anywhere, send 'em my way, ok? Now that you're done with 'em....

Thank heavens! Because this blog would probably have suffered, and I enjoy it, greatly. (That's how I like to look at any situation: how does this affect ME??)

CPA Mom said...

yeah!! I was wondering when you'd fit it in - was thinking weekends - and that would be major suckage.

Great! I don't think you needed to take on anymore, not that you couldn't, but it would suck for you.

Robyn said...

Phew! I was afraid a second job would leave no time for (blogging), I mean, yourself!

Seriously, I'm really happy for you -- Jason's promotion came at a great time. Congrats!

YAY again! That must feel good to be able to let the idea of a second job go. Maybe you'll sleep better?
