Job Front

I may actually change my plans. I was planning on going out to Nevada come school starting for the girl I babysit for to try and get my mom to come back East. She is in a not-so-great place right now and she is willing to stay there because she finally got a job she likes. I will not go into details, but this is the most ridiculous and ludicrous thing she has ever thought was logical. I have decided I will not do that as I am going to be spending a week with her beginning Saturday afternoon. I feel that I will talk to her sometime then and if she is not willing to come out east then I am no longer willing to talk to her about certain aspects of her life. They are 100% off-limits and those sections of my life will like-wise be off-limits. If she wants to start living appropriately, rights will be opened up to her once again, but I cannot put my happiness and well-being at risk for someone who is not putting their life and happiness at the forefront in their own life.

I am thinking that I want to try putting my resume in with ManPower and doing temporary work because I do not really know what I want right now. I feel like maybe if I can get ideas of what I do and do not like I can start putting together a more appropriate game plan for job hunting. Plus my boyfriend and I are looking to get out of the area. We want him to have at least a year under his belt at his current position as it is his first of the sort, but once that is done, we want to get the heck out of New York. If I am in temporary positions it will be easier for me to pick up and go when he finds something. I am also working on getting rid of personal possessions. I have two 5 x 10 storage units from my move crammed to the brim with crap. I want that to change. Having just one is optimal and having it with much less stuff would be amazing. I only have the bare minimum where I am living. I have brought a few things as I have gone, but only stuff I intend to use on a daily basis. I also brought my books because as I read things I intend to get rid of them
