Finally...

Last week I was ever so thankful because after months of job searching, I finally got some calls to set up interviews for job opportunities. But then I was bummed because I found out that the jobs were only temporary and paid about half of what I made before. The hubby and I discussed whether or not these jobs would be worth it because after taxes my net income would basically pay for only two things: (1) day care, then if we were ultra conservative (2) groceries. I tried to stay positive and decided to go on the interviews to see what would happen.

Because I'm a planner, I asked around to see if anyone could refer me to some daycare providers who could watch RJ at our house (rather than us dropping him off at a daycare facility). I got a couple of good leads and could possibly have three or more people to choose from. While I'm confident that these ladies could do a good job, after spending so many months with my son, it was hard for me to imagine someone else caring for him... especially since I'd be leaving him to work at a job that would be WAY below my skill set and salary requirement.

Then, at mass today, I prayed. I reworded my prayers, ever so slightly, and continued to put my trust in the Lord.

Tonight, I was pleasantly surprised... I don't know what happened, but suddenly there are a lot of HR opportunities here in San Diego! So so SO many to choose from - many that demand my skill set - and even better they're for a whole bunch of companies that I would love to work for! I take this as a sign... and must remind myself to be patient.

As they say, good things come to those who wait.... I waited, and now is my moment to seize the opportunity - watch out now, here I come!!!
