I know, I know, I've heard the cliche...Life doesn't care if you have plans. But for me to keep my sanity, I need a plan. I know things will not go exactly as planned. But I need a light at the end, a goal, a direction. That's just how I roll.
Drum roll please...I now present to you...
THE PLAN....
I'm going to talk to my admin to try and go back full time as soon as possible and stay full time through the end of the school year which is mid June. If Dan has not found THE job by summer than I also work summer school. Wah. If he has, then we start trying for number two!! Woo Hoo! In the fall if he has THE job, then I will go back part-time (if they let me) until the end of the first semester, when I will start my leave of absence to stay home with Joaquin and hopefully a baby #2. Yipee!!! If he still doesn't have THE job then we cry and our plan is useless and we go back to the drawing board.
It's funny how we're looking at this whole thing. I feel like we should be freaking out and miserable and looking at this like a huge set back. But we're not. We are really looking at this as a new start, a jumping point, a way to get us where we want to be.
We are fully aware of our crappy economy and know it will be hard to find THE job. But I'm really hoping that our positive outlook is a sign that things will be OK. I know this is so Oprah, but I do believe that we attract what we put out there. Right now, we're putting out some pretty good positive vibes. I just hope we stay that way.

yay! it sounds like a great plan! It's so inspiring to see you taking what life gives you and working with it!
Sounds like a good plan to me! Go for it girl!
"So Oprah" made me giggle. I'm sure things will work out.
I especially like the part about getting #2!! Yay babies!
I hope this plan works out. I know it'll be hard to be full time again, but you have such a good attitude about it - it's really inspiring!
Let me know if there's anything you need!
