Summer is coming and this is the time of year that I can do even more shops than usual. Of course, being off most of the summer is the reason why! I do have a few things to do with my teaching job over the summer. I have a three day workshop in June and a trip to Houston for the Statewide Conference at the end of July. Last year I worked quite a bit during the summer, but I have promised myself and my partner....well and the kids, that I wouldn't work as hard this summer. I printed a calendar for June and have it quite filled up with shops, but I also have at least ten days blocked off NOT to do shops. I am even going to visit my mom in Marshall at some point!
I enjoy doing the shops and making some extra money. It allows me to buy things the boys need as well as take them off for fun activities. It also helps pay the bills. I work weekends during the school year and over school holidays. However, what is the point of making extra money if you don't enjoy life a bit! This is another reason for slowing down a bit. My exhusband got a full time job and I am receiving child support again and that changes things for me too. Of course, if I could just win the lottery then I wouldn't have to work at all!
