Ever feel like you spend to majority of your time swimming upstream? I have been fighting the blahs a bit. First, it came with a job that I hate. Second, comes the weekly down staffing that hits my bank account. Along the way I am fighting some awful tendonitis that is hurting my runs. Finally this week I had a tooth crack and break - ouch.
I am literally at my wits end! I do not have dental coverage and the crown and associated costs to fix the tooth will be well over a grand. With me only getting part time hours that is not possible.
So, with all the gloom and despair I applied for a travel assignment. I figure it was about time. I need regular hours and this tooth will need to be repaired. Oh it is hell to be poor!
I deferred my student loans to free up some funds, but this week I have only worked 8 hours. Eight of thirty-six scheduled. Not exactly hours that will keep me in the lap of luxury. So, I have started the good ole job hunt. Yuck!!!
I am going to hold off as long as possible, but by July 1st I will require a steady income. I may even be forced to return to Texas for a travel gig. God forbid it comes to that...
