Crashing Down
Lately I've been so stressed! Every time I have a day set aside to work on my school work something happens so I don't end up getting anything done. I was supposed to mail a package last Friday, and didn't get around to it. I asked G to mail it all this week and he blew it off. I couldn't since I had to attend state mandated trainings earlier this week and didn't get home until after 5 pm. So today I got ready and left for the post office at 3:40 pm. The line was out the door, so I drove to 2 other post offices that usually aren't so busy. Given my luck, one was closed indefinitely and the other one closed at 4 pm, so back I went to the first post office where I waited in line for 40 minutes!!! I didn't end up getting home until 5:30. I am so pissed! What a F...ing waste of my day! I usually weigh and ship letters from home, but this one had to be taken to the post office.
Next weekend G is flying to MT for a 3rd interview and they want to show him how "great" their company is. I never though he would go this far! There is a huge difference in applying for jobs to test the market vs. flying to a company for the weekend. He told the company his expectations for promotions and salary growth over the next 2 years and they said "It shouldn't be a problem". Given these were G's expectations, not ours or mine. In two years he wouldn't even be making what he is now, not including his bonus. After I teach for 3 years and secure a principal position I will be making the same if not more than him. I just don't know if we can live off his salary until I get my "ideal" position. If I move with him then we will have to live off only his salary until I finish school. We've been praying about the situation. I don't know how living apart for 6-12 mo. could possibly be good for our marriage? I guess I just have to let go and need to realize God will make it work if it is his plan.
