My husband started doing several temp jobs this year after being out of a job for more then a year. The one he started back in June asked him to stay & go permanent in July. He got 90 or higher in every test he took.
We have gone through 4 shift changes. People are starting to bug me, because they keep asking me where he is? Or what I am doing? I thought everyone would know at this point what happened, obviously not. We want to change it again, & that's not an option at this point in time.
He works Thursday through Monday. 1-11 PM. He is not inactive at church. He comes for one hour, & has to leave. It is hard for him to even get a job, so I try to support whatever even if we don't like it. That means I ask for a rides a lot more or go to parents homes. My parents have been gone a lot too in the last month.
Now with my work opportunities & how they are going for me.
I have been helping a library with their sorting for many years, and thought I wanted to attend college in that area. I had someone come in to train me before I went, & did the college peace. When I was finished with the training my volunteer coordinator, my trainer, & myself sat down to talked about what I was really capable of. We all decided I need to go explore more options. When I told my husband what was going on he said " You found that out after waisting 7 years." I said " No it wasn't been a waist I still lorned things from doing it."
I went back in my head to think about what experiences I had done growing up that I shut the door on. this one kept popping into my head at church when I saw this person, & I hadn't really talked to her at all. I was nerves, because I didn't think anyone would let me open this opportunity again. The next thing I knew she came over to sit next to me at church, & she asked me if I wanted to hold her baby. It made my friend Kim cry to watch me hold the baby, because Kim knows my hart. I wrote a note one day after asking Kim what she thought of this person to see if she wanted to get to know me better.

Later she emailed me back, & said "Thank you for your card! I thank you for holding my baby, it was nice to give my arms a break! And thanks for helping me with his bottle last week. You are welcome to hold him ANYTIME! I would absolutely love to get to know you better. Let's get together. What is your week like? What kind of things do you like to do? I can't wait!" Natalee. Natalee and I have been doing things together ever since.
I asked Natalee what she thought of me asking other moms, if they wanted my help. She said " Yes" She helped me sell my serve by writing a note explaining to others what I can do. Here is a list of things I do right now. I ride around in the mom's car & sit there with kids wile she runs into a store, watch them do activates outdoors for their safety, homework, feed baby, teach them to use their manners, & love them like they were mine. Here is the reaction I get from the kids. When I am helping mom with her house projects the kids sometimes want to help me, they Ask their mom can I move over by Tricia's house, when I don't come hey ask where I am, the baby doesn't like other people much then their Mon, but for me he smiles, & lets me pay with him, I get little gifts like bracelets, & pictures that they drew.
I met a sister who runs a non profit for single mom's hopping to help them out, but they haven't found anyone yet who wants my help.
