I'm not sure if I just shot myself in the foot, or gave myself the biggest gift ever. I put in my two-week notice at the Big K tonight. I have managed to work things out the point where I will be fiscally ok until April. I am currently beginning my clinical's and undertaking three HUGE classes that need mega study time. My son told the babysitter the other night that he thought it was "Stupid" that I work until after dark, and that he always takes care of himself. So taking all of that into consideration I handed in my two-weeks.
Could I have stayed at the Big K... definitely. Would it have been stressful.... for sure. I just hated that every weekend that I had my son I had to work. Not only that but it's really hard to re-charge when you're running from one job to another to studying to clinical to whatever.
So... I'm happy. I'm looking forward to two weeks from now when I'll have a real weekend off work. However, I just can't shake that feeling that I might have made a really big mistake. Because while I have things taken care of until April... what happens after April is up for grabs. But hey, ya live, ya learn, right? And if worse comes to worse... maybe I can work at Big Boy.....

Well, you've been talking about it forever, Kerry told me yesterday you really did it, but I didn't believe it until I saw it in your own words. Congratulations, enjoy your time off and as for April, I'll quote Scarlett O'Hara, "I'll think about that tomorrow, After all...tomorrow is another day."
Leave it to a kid to put in perspective for you. Five years from now, you don't want to realize that you missed your son's prime years while you were working two jobs and going to school. In April, you can then consider if you need to find a second part time job.
