even more reality is better....

i had come to grips yesterday with everything...i was going to be a working machine.  i would not see t for at least three years, i wouldn't have time to do anything else at all, i would be miserable, but with a job that i loved and wasn't that worth it? 

then, an epiphany...well, maybe not really...but it was a thought that perhaps i was calculating my gross pay instead of what my net was.  i did some calculating, got super excited, got to work, talked to the person that does my payroll and confirmed....if i was doing a school job, working 2 hours at the real estate office, and full-time summer and holiday hours at real estate...i would be making a bazillion dollars more than i am now.  in fact, i could work the 2 hours a day at the real estate office, take a month off in the summer and STILL be making what i'm making now. 

so, with that off my mind, this seems doable.  i'm still not sure about this job...haven't heard anything, and likely will not til next week, so i'm putting it out of my head for now.  but, there are more and more jobs opening up everyday!  i'm applying to each one, knowing that when the right one comes....i'll be ready.
