I think I may have lost my mind......
Lately I have been struggling with Worker Bee #2 and #1 going back to school and now #3 being in preschool. I was so excited to spend some one on one time with Queen Bee but forgot the little detail of her only being 10 months and having her own agenda durning the day....NAPS!! So my grand idea of using all this "free" time to spend with my baby has been replaced with productive time spent cleaning the house, doing laundry and mowing the yard. Not exactly what I had in mind. So now instead of wondering "When I am going to get to all these exciting daily tasks done?", I have been asking myself a lot "What do I do now that all these things ARE done?" I started to feel like I was in a funk. A funk that I couldn't get over.
And so my never resting mind came up with this.....
I felt like I was starting to miss some of the aspects of my working mom life. I missed the emails, phone calls, organizing tasks and most of all, the fulfillment of accomplishing a days work. I started thinking about the aspects of my working life that I didn't miss......long hours, deadlines and sometimes work having to come before my family. Now don't get me wrong, I am accomplishing many things during the days but my VP can only come home so many days and tell me the house looks nice and he is happy their is a hot meal on the table before it gets a little old. I was on a mission to find something to fill this void.
So what did I find???
As crazy as it sounds (and believe me I have had the same thoughts you are about to have) I am going to start my own business through Premier Jewelry Designs. I am so excited for this great opportunity to start my own business and have a very flexible schedule to work around the VP's crazy traveling schedule and to still be able to keep up with all the many activities of the Worker Bees. I am excited to be able to "work" on my own schedule and do everything that goes with it on my own time. Will this add another level of craziness in this six person business we already have??? Most definitely, but I am up for the challenge. I need a little getaway some days with some socializing and fun so why not make a little bit of extra cash on the side!!!
So there it is. I'm sure everyone thinks I have lost my mind and have totally fallen off my rocker but instead I think I may have gained a little spring in my step the last few days. We only live once, why not have everything you want......or at least try to get it??
