Oops, I didn't again

 it's been so long! 

My baby has been playing on my phone a LOT and older kids commandeered my computer for a while, and I actually spent some time on my oldest child's computer but forgot blogging was an option. I wouldn't say I'm doing bad, per se, but I'm not doing great, either? Things are happening, and I don't hate everything right now, but man I've been weird. It helps that I cut back my hair yesterday - shearing off my hair is therapeutic. 

Speaking of my baby(? it was recently I think!), she started kindergarten! She's the first to leave in the morning and the last to arrive home in the afternoon :'( because her school is far away and I guess other kids need transportation too. Anyway it's only been two days and I'm trying to give myself permission to rest, but also I could be taking walks, or writing, or cleaning, or using my rowing machine, or.... a lot of things. It's only day two! I can still make good habits right? Then again today's lunch was crackers and potato chips.... I guess I did do a grocery pickup and take a shower, so it's not like I've done NOTHING. And I read, which uh let's say is a healthy habit haha. 

Kid number two convinced me to finally schedule a hair appointment! So we're going to do that in about twenty minutes. Just long enough to ramble on a blog post and ask my husband to make dinner. Unless he wants to go with them....... there's an idea. But if I go, maybe I can help trim their hair in the future?.... though the hair cuts are only like $35-45, which considering another salon I was looking at online was like 60-70, I consider a steal. Not as cheap as cutting at home, maybe I can practice on wigs or something. Hair salon at home. I've briefly considering being a hair stylist, for like friends and family and anyone who doesn't want a super professional. I kind of like cutting hair. But I would have to learn a lot more first. and build up stamina. 

There are so many times I've considered jobs. I would love to try a bunch of things. Maybe that's where kid number two gets it from? Does everyone feel that way? Or just people like me who've made it to 38 only having worked like two different jobs, and are reinventing their lives... Maybe I've already made a post like this, but I'm considering all sorts of things - grocery stores, therapy, ultrasound technician, garden centers, elementary schools, daycare centers, CNAs, accounting, and even programming. Writing. Music in churches. They're all appealing for different reasons, though maybe for now I'll just work in schools so I can have summers off with the kids. That's what will most likely happen... I might substitute for paraeducators or even meal workers, since I do have cafeteria experience (one of my two jobs!!).
