For the last two years I have held down two jobs: a full, day-time job and a part-time evenings and weekends job. As I was juggling these two responsibilities, it was increasingly hard to get anything done at home. My house was a wreck, my laundry laid unfinished, my half-hatched DIY plans for the wedding lay strewn about the apartment, and I felt like I was never able to do anything because I was so tired all of the time. Turns out 65-hour weeks can be a problem...
When I requested the time off I'd need in August for the wedding and honeymoon, it was turned down by my part-time job. Granted, it was most of August, but it was frustrating that they expected me to alter wedding plans for my retail job. Therefore, I put in my notice, which ended last week. I didn't realize it, but working 40-hour weeks feels like a vacation!!
I have been able to get so many things done, and it's only Wednesday! Invites = done. Favor problem solving = mostly done. List for rehearsal dinner = made. I still have a lot to do, but for the last five months I've felt nothing but behind. DIY, here I come!
