I keep sneezing so hard i have to take a deep breath right after because all my air just left my body

09:52:16

I wish my health would let me follow my dreams.

A day and a half of near constant work and I was out for two.
I wasn't able to function until yesterday.
It sucked.

Which is why I got a call from the doc's with referrals!

My last paycheck from the school has about 95 hours on it. I work that job hard

That would not be feasible either lol. I have never shown or proved myself to be knowledgeable. I have only taken lessons for 8 years. I have never shown. And just- the gas is what would kill me. With the price of gas I would be filling up every other day so would end up being more than 100 a week. That would be nuts. I still work- just only 5-10 hours a week right now.

Wrangling Cats and Toddlers are like the same thing lol.

The only time I liked kids was teaching lessons and pony camp.

I like being able to have fun with them, and then giving them back when things start to go south lol.

I like my wfh 'office' job. Means I won't tear up my body more than it already is

Working for myself as an independent contractor - I get to set rates and include Car wear and tear and mileage.

People will pay to have someone knowledgeable and dependable.

It's been 20 years of working hard and learning.

I've got goals and dreams that I hope to someday reach. But content with what I have currently.

I had to make a hard decision- to either quit my job and just do part time at the barn, or continue with the school.
Unfortunately- even with our dual income it just would not be a wise decision.

Not to mention more miles traveled = more frequent oil changes needed

Wraithcry Farm

09:38:16 Celeste 🌕

Yeah none of those would work. I am not looking to make huge bucks- I do not with the job I have now. But at the end of the day I do have to pay my bills, which can be really costly at times, and I have to pay for gas to get there and back everyday. 10$ an hour is my normal rate of pay. Our min wage is higher- but because it is a farm they can pay less.

Alright I am going to bed. Bye you sll

It is never easy - I've got friends in the corporate world who sit on offices and go to meetings and send a million emails a day, and make a ton of money.

But I can't. I would die. My soul would shrivel up.

I've worked at barns making pennies an hour.

Now I work a couple hours but it's all my way. I run the barn and pretty much tell the owner what needs to be done (usually after I've done it).
I also have a decent pet sitting gig - where I get to hang out with a bunch of different animals, and even do training services.

I'm a show groom for one nice lady and that's a fun job. I'm her Show Mom - but she's 40 years my senior

I wish I could work with animals full time. But vet med is NOT for me. And the barn could offer me more hours, but not enough to justify driving 40 minutes one way to get there.

Amen to that boulder. I have always done better with animals than people.
