So Hard

Growing up I was always taught that you have to work hard for the things you want. I got my first job at 15 and have been a working girl ever since. It always made me feel good waking up and working a full day and not to mention the MONEY. Even though I never stuck to just one job field I have always enjoyed what I did.

Now that I am a stay at home mom things are a lot harder than I expected. Some days I miss waking up and going to work.I also miss the adult interaction and not to mention the pay checks. I feel like it is the same thing day after day. Then add to that not having car and living thousands of miles away from ANYONE you know makes it 10x harder.

Sunday I thought to myself I will just do hair out of my apartment to make some extra money and be able to get to know some people. So at church I was scoping out my new clients and to my amazement I saw about a hand full of ladies who look like they get their hair done. SERIOUSLY?! Back in AZ you will find a hand full of ladies you DON'T get their hair done. So it looks like I am back to square one.

    Sorry it's so lonely. You are Brent and so great you will make lots of friends in no time. Then you'll be busy making plans with all the other mommies in the ward!

    I am so glad someone agrees with me! Being at home with your kids all day everyday is so hard. So much harder than working. And you don't get a paycheck! Hang in there girly. You're doing great! :)
