A brave new year is coming up fast. After discussing things with my husband, I have decided and he has agreed, that this is the year I will be living on purpose. With purpose. So I can have a life with purpose. My life at the moment is uneventful. My job is uneventful. There is no meaning. No sense of doing something. Wake up, go to work, come home, go watch tv, go to bed, start all over. Every day, a mouse on a wheel, going no where. I'm ready to change this. The dream.. the big dream... is to work at Best Friends Animal Sanctuary. In Kanab, Utah. Looking into Kanab, it seems like my prefered kind of town. Small, fairly isolated. 4 seasons. What do I need to get there? More muscle, less weight, to sharpen my animal knowledge. I believe I am qualified enough to get a job there, but I need to be in shape to do the work. So that's step number one. Step 2, or like, 1A really, as it will need to be happening at the same time, is to save save save money. To get the job requires a two week trial period, which means two weeks travel expenses. Then, if I were to get the job, it means moving all the way out there. That could cost a song as well. I mean, we could try and go the cheapest way possible, down size our possessions and only take what we could cram in the cars. Rent out there is pretty cheap, but I don't know what the pay is like yet. And we'd want several months pay saved up, to handle anything that comes up, as well as give Aaron time to find a job as well. So that is what this blog is about... the road it will take to get there. The diet changes, the exercise, the penny pinching, the hope, the fear, the dream, the terror. Wish me luck!
