The Waiting is the Hardest Part...

It's true. We won't hear anything until February and it could be May. If things slow down it could be longer. We have done all that we can and now it is out of our hands. Thankfully it is only a couple of months after that and we will be home with our daughter. I feel stuck and am aware I need to get moving but am having trouble getting going. The uncertainty is wearing on me now.
I'm still working during the day two days a week at my school and subbing at schools on the other weekdays but subbing has become a little less reliable. I am getting lots of half days and sometimes no days more than before.
With the economy the way it is service work has slowed down so I have been really pushing to get more jobs and hours. I'm still hopefully going to do some catering/banquet serving, have started private art lessons with a teacher I work with, am doing some seasonal retail work in the evenings and on the weekends, and recently got another retail job that is permanent. I'm relieved because it's nice to know that I will have more work over the school year through the holiday breaks and over the summers.
It will be a little busy over the next few weeks with Christmas coming and then it will calm down but being busy will be nice I think.
