mental health

[adiva]

I went through a very important realization last week. After the last year and a half of crying and being emotionally scarred by my workplace, I have finally decided that I am over it.

What this means is that I am not going to worry about this job anymore. On top of that, I'm not going to worry about my future in law anymore. If it happens, it happens. If it doesn't, it doesn't.

I've known for a while that this particular trajectory in my life was probably not the best one. At least, not with the way it played out. The difference is now, I think it's time I really accept it and think about moving on.

Any thoughts on what I should do in the alternative?

Have you thought about drumming up some investment and making your online business a physical shop?

Sadly, I would definitely need business loans for that. And I don't think the boy or I are comfortable with the risk. I'm figuring I have enough money to last me through my move to Texas and one year after that (assuming I don't find a job). After that, if I still haven't been able to pull something together, we move in with my mom. (Obviously, not the first choice.) But along the way, I am doing things to grow the business. In fact, I'm dabbling into making my own beauty products now...

So the question is, what do I do for a job? Hmmm...

It's hard to focus on stuff when your heart isn't into it so I would say put together a plan about what you really want to do and focus your energies on that outside the office. In time you may be able to quit and move on to something you'd rather be doing. Of course the difficult thing may be figuring out what that is.

enjoy the city before you leave!! go to the park, bike ride through the city, visit (gasp) places off the island.

while you're stuck in the office with nothing to do (something i've been struggling with lately) - let me know if you figure out something besides reading every little article written for nytimes.com. EVERY little article. my brain is so full of useless information, it's ridiculous.

i've got it! keep your LJ posted with all the cool discoveries you find in the city and all the fun things you are doing and plan to do once you move to texas. this will (1) keep you busy and (2) give me something interesting to read!!
