Hey Kat,

It is always a bummer (to put it lightly) when things are not going as you had planned, either in relationships, with children and or jobs (and yes sometimes in all three.) frown However, forgive my rose colored glasses, I'm an eternal optimist and I think sometimes you have to make lemonade out of the lemons you've been dealt until something better comes around - and almost always something better does eventually find it's way to you as long as you keep making the effort to find it and having the patience for it to arrive.

Sometimes Mondays are just the pits even when you're in a job you love. While I like the job I'm in and am thankful for it, I've been on the search for a new higher paying one for the last 4 months. I've submitted multiple applications with no luck so far, but I intend to keep submitting them and sooner or later something will come through.

I'm pulling for you that your situation has some big and positive changes coming sooner rather than later - I'm confident those changes will come for you!

BA
