Well, maybe not desperate measures, but different measures for sure. I'm actively trying to figure out what to do with this thing called "unemployment." Even though my Master's is in Education, I find myself more and more hesitant to go into the education field as a normal teacher. I just don't know what I want to do, except I'd love to teach college-level education courses. I've had one offer but most of the work was on the weekends, and I just can't do that when my husband travels all week.
I have to figure out what I can do from home to make enough money to pay for The Princesses tuition and anything else we need at this point. I think a semi-mindless job would be ideal, and a lot less stress than teaching! With a husband that travels, it's very difficult to be a working parent and spend 50 hours or so working each week., along with raising two kids. I was a single mom for years and I swear, I don't know how I did it. With The Rockstar still being homeschooled, I've got to find something either very part time or something at home.
My brain is working overtime in this capacity, but I know whatever I decide will have to pay our bills. I'm kind of glad our situation (read: Having hardly any money!) has pushed me to pursue something that interests me and that will help me pay our bills. While I decided I wanted to be a stay-at-home mom and wife for a long time, when desperate times arrive, I'm ready to take them on and do what I can to make life easier for us as a family. It's tough, but hopefully I'll find something that can work for me!
