Flying by the seat of my pants. Husband supported.



I have always been a "fly by the seat of my pants" type of girl.  Never planning,  never thinking of the consequences of my actions until it's too late.  Now I am unemployed too.  I fucking rock.  I have an amazing husband that supports my craziness, even promotes it sometimes.  I had a shitty job at the tobacco store, I was the manager so it was a good job but I was treated like shit and overworked.  There is an entry on here about me quitting said shitty job, if you'd like to read it.  Anyway, my husband encouraged me to quit because it was killing me, aging me and breaking my spirit.  Then he supported my decision to take a little break and find myself again.  When I was working so much, (6 A.M til 6 or 7 P.M) I had no time to do anything for myself or anything with my husband.  Our marriage was on the rocks, my sanity was fading fast, my district manager could give two shits about what was going on, it was a mess.  I hadn't been outside during the daylight in a year and a half unless it was to go to the bank to make the deposit.  Thank God if we needed change or store supplies, that was another short trip.  When work errands become the only good part of your day, it's time to make a change. Since quitting I have slept in, done nothing some days, written others, taken pictures, drove my one year old new car around that I couldn't enjoy except for seeing it in the parking lot at work.  I see life in a whole new light since my mama passed away, life is too damn short to be miserable. I am selling Mary Kay now, I love it.  It's on my terms so I sell what I want, when I want. There is a lot of pressure on my husband to be the sole provider right now but he is amazing and never lets me down.  He lifts me up and encourages me to do what makes me happy, even if I don't know what that is right now.  I am looking into a few things, I am a good business woman, I am a people person like crazy, I never meet a stranger and I am kinda competitive so when I get my mind set on something...It's a done deal.  I just want to make people happy, that makes me happy.  How do I incorporate the two things into one awesome life plan?  Hmmm???  I will have to think on that one. Right now, I am the happiest yet the most scared I have ever been in my life.  We don't make enough money to pay my car payment, (2 months behind now) I don't have car insurance and my phone will be shut off in 6 days. I cannot fret, for everything always works out in the end, I don't know how but it does. My husband is a damn magician ninja sometimes and I couldn't be more appreciative of the man he is, allowing me the time I need to be the woman I am supposed to be.  The woman I can be, The woman I will be.
