Uncertainty



Woman in Transition is a blog that shows my transition throughout my life and I cannot wait to share with you all of my adventures and transitions as they occur.  I feel like I have not blogged about my life in a long time.  So here is an update:

Sean got a job!  Not just a summer job or after school job, but a big boy job!  I did not want to post until it was official, but he will be working at Darigold (milk company) in Issaquah, WA starting in August.  We are so excited!  It was fun and nerve racking going through the final steps of waiting to see if it was official.  My man has earned it.  I am so proud of him, plus its taking me closer to Seattle.

This also creates more debate on where to live because we want to live a little north of Seattle, but that commute would be awful for him.  We were thinking about Bothell and are not thinking about Bellevue.  We are looking to rent (would love to rent a house) so Rudy could have a backyard, but we will probably have to rent an apartment before we start looking to buy house in the next year or so.  There is also some hesitance because Darigold might relocate Sean after his year of training to the other branches: Salt Lake City, Boise, Cadwall, Montana, Oregon (cannot remember the cities), Spokane, Tri-Cities, Sea Tac, or Seattle.  So there is a chance we could stay in the area or in Washington or move far away.  I hope we can stay in Seattle, so we can look for houses and start a family in the next couple of years J. 

I titled this post uncertainty, because my job is being funded by a grant called the College Access Challenge Grant and is up on August 13, 2011, which is also my last day!  My job was only temporary, and I knew that when I started.  It has been really great because God has blessed me health and dental benefits from this job and a steady paycheck.  I am not really sure where what career or job I will have after this one.  This can be a really scary time in someone’s life or really exciting!  Here are some possibilities, let me know what you think!

-I could work in higher education (different colleges).  I really have enjoyed working at WSU in admissions and recruitment.  I have a really great team and like this kind of atmosphere.  I could see myself doing something like this.

-I could substitute, because lets be honest, teaching jobs are hard to come by right now and with all the budget cuts….. My passion is kids and I would love to teach, so maybe someday I will have my own classroom.


-stay at home mom with Rudy J.



-I could work in a coffee shop.  I think it would be amazing to open up my own coffee shop with comfy couches and chairs….but until then I could work in one.


- program coordinator.  I am a program coordinator for a recruitment event at WSU called Imagine U.  I could work somewhere coordinating something.  I love to organize and plan things.

-serving/volunteering or working at a church.  I would love to get up and go to work at my church.  I could maybe organize events and mission trips.  That would be awesome!

-taking pictures (not sure if I could get a job, but maybe more of a hobby).

If anyone has any ideas or leads, let me know!  Especially, in the Seattle area.
