Make: Moves, Decisions, Money

I'm back in town, Nashville that is, but the house is a little more baren than I left it. Matt has mostly moved out and Stuffy grabbed a few things as well. I was using his computer desk, so now my computer sits on the floor by my bed. That's fine though. I won't be here too much longer anyways. I figure I'll start slowly moving out starting tomorrow. Viking will be leaving for Oregon on Wednesday for a business seminar, and Matt will be almost completely moved out, so it will be just me here in the house for several days. I'll be working a good bit of that time, but when I'm not working, I'll probably be packing or trying to get back into the gym. Maybe I'll pick up reading again. That would be nice. I don't read enough.

That's another thing with not being a full-time student anymore. I have time for things like reading and maybe even exercise. I'm excited about that. I'm also going to be looking at new jobs though. I might go up to Bank of America and check to see on teller positions. I think I'd be good at it and, though the scheduling might not be as flexible as it is at the hotel, the pay will be better and more consistent. I need consitency right now. My goal in all of this, of course, is to get leveled out on my bills and my insurance needs. I've got to become completely self-sufficient before the summer is over.

Finally, I've got to clear my head. There's a lot going on right now that could potentially bother me a great deal. Some of it is concerning my friends and the decisions they are making. It's all concerning stuff that I've been through and that I know isn't a good idea, but why tell them. It's not as if they will listen. Some of it has to do with a more deep and personal level, but again, not much I can do about it. I've got to really sit down and grapple with what I have control over and what I do not have any control over. You can worry about things you have control over because it is a motivator, but the things you have no control over just eat up your time with useless thought. As cliche as it sounds, it is best to just pray about it because you must recognize that God has control over both, that which you can control, and that which you have no control over.

Peace and love.
