Never Say Never
I keep re-learning that lesson, years too late.
This time it's the "I will never work retail again EVER" utterance I find myself having to take back.
And wouldn't it figure, I'm liking my job at the mall. (I reserve the right to rescind that statement the morning after Black Friday.)
And I've been trying for days now to write this post in my head, to explain all the reasons why, without belittling stay-at-home motherhood, but I don't have the skill or the clarity to manage that right now. It just suffices to say that it's amazing how we can turn out to be so different from the person we once thought we were.

Yay for you!
I'm glad you are liking the job...
It's too true...first, we are never the same person for more than seven years at a time; second, life has a way of happening.
YGG! and always (HUGS)
Cool! Congratulations on the job! And hey...Black Friday is usually the worst only in the wee hours, so hopefully it won't be too bad for you! I worked during a Black Friday once and I dreaded it, but it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be.
Did you make it through Black Friday?
I did make it through black Friday. I worked in the evening, and it was slow by then.
Thanks for asking.
Told you! I'm glad it wasn't too bad! :)
