work less, live more

I quit one of my jobs this week. I’m so excited to be able to make plans and do something for myself besides working. And I’m about to get a raise at my other job. I’m so happy!

This is going to be a difficult task for me. I work two jobs and about 65 hours (at minimum) a week. Working interferes with my life a lot, but I work in a town where there’s a lot to do in summer, and not so much in the winter. I’m saving up for the winter, but I need to learn how say no when people beg me to take their shifts and stuff like that. I would love to be able to relax a little during my summer and enjoy myself, maybe work on some of my other goals.

But since I enjoy my work, I do not feel like I’m “living less.” So I’m taking this off my list until I need it.
