So fickle


I am so fickle.  First I decided to go back to school and take business administration.  When I was trying to explain to my father as to why I decided to go back to school, I thought, ‘Yeah, why am I doing this?’ I thought about how I’d have very little time to write if I go back to school full-time.  I want to write.  Just recently, I got a casual position as an Educational Assistant and an Early Childhood Educator.  I’ve worked two shifts in two weeks.  I’m still working as an online learning Centre assistant but the money as an educational assistant is definitely better.  If I were to work two shifts a week, I would make more money than I do at the Centre.  I’m unqualified, which makes me wonder if I should become qualified to ensure more shifts and the possibility of a full-time job with the schools.  Of course, that means going back to school.  I can do that; it would mean part-time studies while I’m working, at one job only.  I don’t think I can handle two jobs, part-time studies and writing.  We’ll see what happens.  In September or October I’ll take another look at things and make a decision.  Chances are, I’ll quit at the Centre and concentrate on the schools and my second novel.  I’ll try not to lose my mind in the mean time.
I finished making the changes that my editor wants me to make on my novel.  We'll see when my book will be accessible, hopefully soon.  I'm still working on the website too.
