Jobless...

Well, I officially quit my job today so that I can stay at home with Tru full time. It was a hard thing to do. I actually really like working and have worked ever since I was 15, so that's what, 9 years of employment. I liked my job and the people that I work with, but we can get by on Trent's income and I just can't imagine dropping Tru off at daycare everyday and not really getting to see my baby. I don't know how working moms do it, I really don't. I will say though that taking care of Tru 24 hours a day is a lot harder than filling a copy machine with paper and registering students for classes. It's the hardest full time job I've ever had.
On Friday we went out to Trent's work Christmas party and dropped Tru off at a sitters house, and I cried. I can't imagine doing that everyday. Wow, so that makes quiting my job that much easier.

Now my dream job is to get my personal training certification and start working part time as a personal trainer. That is the current goal now. That is what gets me out the door everyday in this cold weather to go running to try to get back in shape. So we will see how long it takes me to actually become employed again... (probably as long as it takes me to lose 20 lbs of baby weight).
