[QUOTE="Scent of Cedar *, post: 649275, member: 17461"] It takes a time and half a time, to change how we interpret who we are. But it can be done, and you have begun the process. There will be many times, I think, when you hardly recognize yourself, and when you are not sure changing was a good thing. That is how it is with me, when I decide to change. Brene Brown (you can You Tube her) writes that we human beings are [I]wired[/I], hard wired, for challenge. If you can learn patience with yourself, and kindness for yourself, and compassion, this time of uncertainty will pass. Keep applying for different jobs, check out Craig's List. You just never know. They say 90% of what happens to us in life has to do with showing up. That is all you really have to do. Just go where you said you would and do your best. When you are home with the kids, do your best there, too. If it can only work that you work nights, you will figure it out. Take it one small, small step at a time. Remember that we all get as many do-overs as we need, and that it is a human privilege to make mistakes. That is how we learn and grow. You are doing really, really well, and I am so happy about that. :O) Cedar [/QUOTE]
