FEMA

My period came about 5 days early this month and I was mildly disappointed to know Billy had not knocked me up. Realistically I know this is a good thing b/c we are not back together yet and not in the best position to be bringing life in to this world. I really hope we do someday! Lately I've been thinking about how I would love to be a foster parent once I am settled in LA. I think it would be really wonderful to open up my home to a child in need and provide them a safe space and lots of love. I have a lot of love to give. I really hope Billy and I get back together and its as wonderful as it was when we were together before. It would be so amazing to start a life together and later on, a family. 

Today I applied for 6 contract positions with FEMA to go to Houston and assist in disaster relief for 3 months. I have some experience and skills that would make me pretty useful in that capacity. The experience I'd gain would also be invaluable. I really hope I get it! The pay is great and once I finish the assignment, it would be time to make the move to LA. I want this so bad! But I'm trying not to get my hopes up. I am praying though. It is a wonderful opportunity. My education, experience and skills are going to waste at my current job. And my compensations leaves a lot to be desired.  🙏🙏🙏

I got TABC certified so I can start doing beer, wine and liquor demos. Probably one a week on the weekends. Easy money and I am just trying to save as much as I can for my move. I am probably going to try to walk a few dogs with Wag a week. I miss my pet sitting business and spending time with lots of awesome dogs. I have been having so much fun going out with friends, but it has also been kinda expensive. I need to find more inexpensive activities for socializing. I did have a fantastic weekend though. Hung out with some good friends and made some new friends.

Just counting the days til I get to see Billy again. I can't wait to spend time with him.  😊💕
