So remember how i was supposed to start being a Nanny for an infant in the coming weeks, well, it has been removed from my to do list.
So, here's what happened, I woke up this morning to a text, which said that her sister just found out she is pregnant and she quit her job. Her sister offered to watch the baby. And she is going to do it. I understand the situation, of course you'd rather a relative watch your kid over someone else. But, it is kinda lame, she and I had been talking about me doing it before he was even born. Well, oh well.
In all truthfulness, I knew it wasn't going to happen, I don't know how, I could just tell, I knew something was going to happen. Maybe it was God preparing me, I'm not sure, but it's alright. You know, I was worried about taking the job I have because I had promised to watch this baby. I even considered turning it down out of loyalty. But I didn't, I figured, if it came down to it I could quit my job and just be a Nanny. Turns out that won't be necessary. This is more stable and easily more flexible too. For instance, if I ever got sick, it wouldn't only be inconvenient for me but for her too. I know it's for the better. Less stress now.
I was very concerned about how I was going to get everything done being so busy. Now, not the problem. I guess God knows the whole time! Now I can see I shouldn't have been worried.
On a different note, I got a yellow shelf at the rummage sale a couple saturdays ago. Yesterday I painted it black and now it is hanging in my bedroom with a picture from my wedding and several candles, it is very nice! I'm pleased!
Today I have a lot of cleaning up to do. My living room is kind of a mess as well as the dining room and the bedroom. Off to make my house clean! It's crazy how fast things accumulate when you are busy! Certain things become less of a priority. Cleanliness needs to be higher on my list! :) Anyway, have a good day!
None of this sounds like you're actually sad or even disappointed. Like you said, your current job is the more stable and flexible position. God was definitely preparing you.
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad you're having a good attitude about it! You're such a wonderful woman! I hope everything is going well for you today and that the housework was easy! It all worked out! You're the best!
ReplyDeleteI am both. I just am ok with it.
ReplyDeleteThanks! I definately think he was preparing this situation.
I didn't say you weren't, I just thought it was funny that you titled the entry with "Sad, disappointed" and yet if you wouldn't have titled it that and someone simply read the entry they probably wouldn't come to that conclusion. =)
