I posted a few weeks ago about some changes in my life.
Well, here it is.
I got a job.
I know.
You are probably shocked.
Despite what some people think I never wanted to stay at home forever.
I was considering school to become a physical therapy assistant and did get accepted into the program, however, as summer went on I just wasn't feeling it.
If I'm not feeling something 100% I'm not going to do it and I'm especially not going to spend a lot of money on something I'm not quite sure of and the school isn't cheap.
They will hold my seat up to 2 years if I change my mind.
I randomly started looking for part time administrative assistant jobs in July.
It isn't easy to find them, most are 40 hours a week and the part time ones I was finding were 30 hours a week.
I wanted something that wasn't anymore than 20 hours.
Then I found it.
I was looking about once a week at the available jobs at a local university and not really seeing much, it is a very small school.
Then one day it was there.
Administrative Assistant, 15-20 hours a week.
What???
I immediately sent my resume in.
I received a call about 2 weeks later.
I scheduled an interview, which went really well and about a week later received a call to come in a 2nd time.
I was so nervous.
I wasn't sure if it was to come in for a job offer or a 2nd interview.
It was a 2nd interview, but I also knew I had the job from the way she worded things, they were just waiting on checking the rest of my references.
Two days later I received a phone call and was offered the job.
I'll be working anywhere from 15-20 hours a week, no more than 20 hours and sometimes less than 15 hours.
It is the perfect job for a mom who wants the best of both worlds.
It also helps that Davis will be in preschool so I won't feel so bad.
On the days he is at preschool he will attend the maximum of 5 hours a day. The preschool is only 3 hours, but they offer extended days for up to 5 hours each day.
The other two mornings I work I will drop him off at my mom's, who lives within walking distance of my job and pick him up a few hours later when I'm done.
I'm excited, nervous and excited!!!!
