Struggling

It’s the usual, I’m bad about writing on my blog.  I just don’t have much positive to say to the world, so I choose to say nothing instead.

I’ve been trying to keep myself busy.  I’ve been so bored lately.  It’s amazing how bored you can get when you don’t work 12 plus hours a day, 6 or 7 days a week.  I don’t know which is worse.  So, I’m barely making any money and my boss can barely pay me, so I’ve resorted to getting two part time jobs.  I thought that since I was finished with grad school, these times were gone.  I was wrong.  Just finished training at Macy’s and have training to be a part time ticket seller at UT on Friday.  I picked up two cat sitting jobs of strangers for this week and next week and am still bored at my regular job b/c it’s so slow right now.  Hopefully, I’ll meet some new people at these jobs and at least have contact with more people on a regular basis, even if they are strangers. 

I think I’ve found a church…I’ve been three times so far and attended one small group, plans to try another this week.  It’s really small, but I went to a ladies coffee thing and had a really good time, so I figured I should give it a shot.  We’ll see if I make any real connections and if it’s the right fit for me. 

It’s finally cooler here in Texas, but it’s still usually in the 70s during the day, sometimes 80.  I guess I’m going to stay in my same apartment for another year b/c I can’t afford to move.  I’m still in the stage where I’m doubting my decision about moving here, but not going to give up.  I’m determined to make it work somehow…I need to take my own advice to try and find my own happiness.  Easier said than done.
