Getting My Cr*p Together

September 13th, 2015 at 05:25 pm

I am holding my own doing my best to maintain a good attitude despite my job and marriage woes. I am not ready to talk about my marriage, but it is not headed in a positive direction despite my efforts.

As you know, I feel like my job is out of my league and I wonder how long I can last at it. I also found out this week the big boss gave his notice. He said he can't drink the corporate Kool-Aid anymore (He doesn't like how things are being run). All of this has kicked my butt in gear. I have looked into how to get on the sub list for the county. I think I will do so. I can always take a day off per month to sub to keep in the loop. If I ever do lose my job, I can bef up the subbing. I am also picking up what I can for mystery shopping.

In addition to all of this, I am working on the smaller ways to earn including Swagbucks,Instagc, mPoints, Epoll, and Pinecone. I am using all of these small items to earn Amazon and or Paypal. Any money going to Paypal from the snowflakes is being split between debt and savings. The mystery shopping is split this way too.

All of this does not eliminate my anxiety, but I know it's small steps in a positive direction.

Today's snowflake is $9 from Pinecone. I transferred $5 to savings and $4 to my credit card.

    It's good to have a back up plan and your plan to sub sounds like a good one. I predict we are going to have a teacher shortage nationwide pretty soon, so subs will be at a premium. Hope things work out for you so you can have your stress level go down.

    More power to you with the subbing - good idea though as a backup plan.

    I hope things start looking more positive for you soon.

    It's wise of you to use the skills you have to keep you in the loop for other possibilities. Wishing you well!!

    Sorry to hear things are so hard after making your move for work! I'm hoping there's a silver lining somewhere. Your backup plan sounds good.
