8.7.14

I was pretty determined to get to bed early tonight. I will be in bed pretty early, but not as early as I was hoping. I’m exhausted from today. Today is my busiest day teaching. I teach a class from 8-9:30 am and then again from 5-10 pm. This morning I got up around 6:30 am, wrote morning pages and then left for work. My student had to leave early so I managed to get home around 10 am. I meditated for a little while and then practiced Reiki while I fell asleep. I then slept until about 1:30 pm when I got up, took a shower and went back to work. The point of this very long and terrible story is that nearly the entirety of today was spent either being at work, commuting to or from work, or sleeping. I get to do it all again on Thursday.

I’m going to quit my job tomorrow. I’m ready to be done. These are not sustainable working conditions. My hope is that she says I can be done on Friday, but if she wants I will offer to work next week as well. I just really don’t want to work next week. I’d really like to be done. Not working next week would also give me some time to solidify my plans to fly back to the US and also prepare some more for that (mentally). It’s going to be a big change. I’m ready to go back and feel positive that I can pursue something new. Hopefully find a badass job that I enjoy and work at paying down some debts. If that doesn’t work, I’ll maybe just leave again. I could fly down to South America for a while. I’m not really sure what I would do, but it sounds like there is a nice backpacking scene and it’s supposed to be a pretty inexpensive place to travel around. I could probably make some friends while I did that for a while. Who knows. The point is, I have options and people who are rooting for me, even if I can’t always root for myself.
