News On The Horizon?

You guys haven't had a reminder of the cuteness I'm surrounded by everyday. Here you go. You're welcome.

How can it be, that in a few days, I have done so little, yet so much has happened? I'm almost disoriented by it all. Good stuff seems to be happening folks. I'm not at liberty to share all, but, I'll at least clue you in. Jon may have finally found an area of law he'd love to work in and would be great at. As in, he actually is motivated about something and is will to pursue it. This. is. HUGE. He has spent three years with his current firm and lately has acknowledge the lack of satisfaction he gets from it. I could've told you that two years ago, but, he's come to this realization and may just be on the verge of taking a leap of faith and go after something he wants to do.

I'm thrilled, to put it mildly. I hope I can share more with you all soon!

In the meantime, I have been offered to head up a couple of volunteer positions with my Irish dance studio I shamelessly promoted the other day. I will help take and archive photos, run a private share page for the school, and put together a yearbook at the end of this year. I'm also looking at helping out with some public relations stuff- can we say COOL!?!
-
I'm also on the verge of making some big scheduling decisions. First, I need to hear back what my school schedule is officially (yes, I'm still waiting to hear about that!) but I have decided to cut back on my private lesson hours. The last two-thirds of the school year I worked from 8am-6pm, four days per week, with children, on top of caring for Leo's needs, all of which made for long and draining days. Too long and much too draining. I need more time during the work week to decompress and do things around the house and practice. And if Jon is going to do what I'm thinking he'll do and I'm helping with my dance studio that extra time is all the more precious.
-
That's where my life stands at this point. The week has been crazy, but, exciting. Many things aren't set yet, but, I'm keeping my head up, working to get things settled and organized around the house, and bracing for new and wonderful things. I can't wait to share more with you guys soon. Say a prayer, send good vibes, thoughts or whatever you want that it all works out please! Thanks in advance!

This all sounds excellent! Keeping my fingers crossed everything falls nicely into place.

Vibes of happiness and goodness being sent your way for sure!

I must ask, though... what is this "cut back" thing you speak of?? Are you genetically allowed to do that? Are you actually trying to PREVENT burnout?? *gasp, faint, THUD... wink*

Sarah- you rock chica, thank you! I know, right?! I'm trying not to be too proud of myself, but, it does feel good to work towards not being burned out! I do worry about not being able to put my foot down with some students who I'm fond of. Here's to hoping I don't have too many big/hard decisions to make!

Sarah said...

Fingers crossed for you and I'm sure you'll find a way to deal with those kids somehow... you've always had a knack for that!
