After talking with my husband and my dad, I have decided to send my boss an email explaining what I am going to do about quitting my job. An email is less confrontational than a face to face meeting would be and I can say it and not get distracted. I feel real bad about this decision but I have to think about my happiness and my family's happiness above my paycheck. Speaking of, if anyone knows where someone is hiring please let me know!!
Wish me luck as I do this. Today will be the day!

Work
Ok, I am new to this so bare with me. To me this is a way to vent, atleast thats what this blog will be about.
I am confused about what to do with work. I am extremely unhappy and want to find something else, not sure what, but at the same time this is such a busy time for the office and there is so much going on with personal stuff, for me and my boss, that I do not want to leave in the middle of everything and make it worse. My boss wants me to stay obviously but knows I am very stressed and wanting to leave. He has given me the choice to try and work part time after 60 more days full-time and that way I can still help since he spent the time paying me and the girl who trained me. He would not loose all of his investment. I am not sure if I want that. It would still be the same job but a much smaller amount of time to do it and a much smaller pay check. I have a hard time not bringing the stress home when it consumes me everyday. My precious little girl does not deserve that and neither does my EXTREMELY understanding husband. I have spoke with some christian friends who I trust and most say to quit and find something else. The other one says to trust in God to change my work environment. My husband has told me he wants nothing more than for me to be happy and he can see that I am not happy where I am. How do I get past this nagging feeling that quiting is not the right thing? Is that nagging feeling God trying to tell me that I am suppose to stay? Everyone around me that I truly trust their opinion has told me to quit. I have never been a quitter before. I have been praying about this and I feel like God is trying to tell me what to do, as is what out FANTASTIC God does for us, however its hard to know whats from him and whats from my own mind and whats from the friends.
I guess mostly I need some prayers that what God says I am to do will be evident and MUCH louder in my head than my own thoughts, and those from my friends. Thanks to all those who read my first blog. I will work on something fun to read next time.
