The Search is On

Well, it's official. My husband and I had a discussion this morning and I need to start looking for a job. A real, outside the house, will pay me wages, job. This is of itself does not bother me; I actually like to work, I like people, I love to learn...and I'm bizarrely organized for a chaotic chick like me. I love the idea of bringing some fundage into the household, Monkeybutt is in school all day, the Girl Child is 5 and will be starting school soon...and is ready to be with other kids all day. I would prefer staying home with them until next year when they start school, but I have yet to find any viable work-from-home options I actually think I would be a blessing to any company that would hire me...and therein lies the problem. Who will? I haven't worked outside the home in eight years. I've spent the time raising my kids, playing with other people's kids, taking care of the homes, etc. I have been organizing MOM'S Club events the past few years, I taught VBS and Sunday School at a church when I lived in Illinois, sat on committees, etc. I've organized crafts and storytimes, but how will that translate to me landing a job I could be happy in? I'm not a teacher and I don't have my Bachelor's (only my Associate's). I figure my best bet will be a friend or acquaintance who knows of a someone looking for an efficient, friendly, fast learner (is this reading like a resume yet?) to work for their company. I will keep you all up-to-date on my progress. Wish me luck...
