My Life Thus Far
I AM Worthy!
Day 3 (for me) of the new layout and I'm still trying to adapt. Ugh! Why can't I let this go? It's like everything I've ever known and loved about my diary is gone, and yet it's still very much the same. Functionally, nothing has really changed. It's the look that's throwing me. Each day it gets a little easier, though. Maybe someday soon I won't feel the need to start every entry with how much I hate the new layout. I dream big, clearly.
I had the best intentions of getting up semi-early this morning, maybe going for a short hike or even to the gym... but neither of those things happened. Instead, I laid in bed and scrolled Craigslist looking for job openings in Kitsap County. Between Indeed.com and Craigslist, I'm not coming up with too many enticing options. Just when I was about to give up on the idea of actually ever being happy at a job, I expanded the search criteria to include Olympic Peninsula listings... and I think I might have stumbled across my dream job. Wellness Manager for The Food Co-op in Port Townsend. The pay is amazing. The job sounds right up my alley. I love Port Townsend. The job and the company aligns with my ethics way more than VS ever has or ever will. The only way this job could be any more perfect would be if they were an all vegan co-op. Alas, I don't live in a vegan world, and I begrudgingly accept this. I'll take what I can get.
My plan is to go into The Co-op on Thursday and see what kind of vibes I get from the place (before applying). Even though I love Port Townsend, am there constantly, and have driven past the place no less than a hundred times, I've never been in. For some reason I just always assumed it was a members only kind of thing. But apparently it's not. So, I'm going in to do a little reconnaissance before I go through the effort of submitting a resume. I'm only partially qualified for the job, but I feel like it's something I'd be successful at. I'm all about naturopathic living, homeopathic remedies, wellness in general. I think I'm a good candidate. The posting has been up for 23 days and they haven't filled it yet, which tells me that they're being very selective about who gets it. I hope I stand a chance. I'm so overly-critical of myself. I'm trying not to fill myself with feelings of doubt and unworthiness. I AM worthy!
Work was uneventful this evening. It's back to being slow and boring again. I'm not complaining though. I'm grateful holiday and the worst of semi-annual is behind me. I can go back to life as usual. Especially with all the extra time I'll have on my hands this week.
