Getting on with life...
I made a decision today. I am still in the process of praying about it, ensuring that it is the right thing to do, but the more I think about it, the happier I feel and the more it makes sense to me. As most of you reading this probably know, I have been working for Imperial Parking for the last two and a half years. In this time, my life has changed a lot. I started during the year I took off of school to figure my life out, and now, as I draw near to the end of my 2 year massage program, I am feeling really ready to quit. Today during our professional development class, it just came to me. "Angie, take a leap of faith and quit your job at the end of May." That would give me just about another 2 months of working there, but would bring me up to just about the end of my program. It would give me time to focus on preparation for my board exam, time to relax and a week or so of free time after I am done, to RELAX, go to Swift Current with Jay, not worry about responsibilities and start looking for a massage related job. I know that I may not find a massage job right off the bat, but like I said, I think it is a leap of faith to save my sanity and bring a little joy into my life. This is my grad gift to myself :) If worse came to worse and I was running out of money (I have a little saved up), I could go out and get a non-massage job somewhere until I find something massage related. But I feel a strong sense of calm and peace about this decision. The only thing that scares me is telling my dad about this. I realize I am 23 years old, and it is my life, but I do have to live with him, and I don't want to hear "I told you so" if I can't find a job right away. I am sure I will find SOMETHING....So if you would pray for me, and let me know if you think I am completely retarded, I would appreciate it. :)
