Possibilities
Last night I turned in my application for my dream job. It is a program assistant position with the city of Portland in their office of sustainability. Over the past two years I have become more mindful of my environment and what I leave behind. In this job I would be helping the recycling at work, composting with restaurants and multifamily housing recycling programs the city has. I would be able to use my degree and work in area of new passion for me. After I sent off the resume I became really sad because I want it so bad and now it is in someone elses hands. That is hard to deal with. I could really use all the good thoughts and prays possible. Otherwise I might be with out a job by August or September because I really need to leave WIC. I think the job is starting to affect my daily happiness and relationship with Corey. Upseting that ones job has that much impact on their life. Please wish me luck. I will be in such a mess if I get an interview.

Good luck sweet pea! It's no shock to me that your work is affecting your life in such a big way- think about how much time we spend at our jobs, how much energy, how much of OURSELVES that we pour in daily- what's left over? Our culture gives such weightiness to our careers that it's impossible to put our full focus on what matters (family!) while working a full time job. So if you're going to do it, you have to enjoy it so that there's a good portion of you left over at the end of the day for your "real" life!! I hope that came out right :) Good luck pursuing something that makes you happy and leaves some Carol left for Cory :)
