The new plan ....

I. AM. SOOOOO. EXCITED!!!
I have a plan. Actually, it's something I've thought of several times, but then quickly dismissed. It's so unrealistic. It's not very responsible. But I just LOVE it!! Ironically, it was Tom who thought of the plan last night on the way to Toronto (more on that later - I can't get sidetracked now, LOL) So the plan is to give work a choice. I can work part time, or I can quit. Their choice. As much as I'd LOVE to go in on Monday with this "offer", I'm going to wait until most likely August.

1. I need to save a bit more. I'd like to have at least 3 months saved up so I don't need to stress out Tom too much ;) I'm putting a fair bit away via my CSB's so as long as I squirrel away a little more I'll be good August-ish.
2. Noone is goig to make this career change work but me. I need to take a risk. I need to take a chance. Really, there's no reason NOT to do this!
3. I get to call the shots. I'd like to work somewhere where I know I'd be happy... Not a warm body getting a paycheck.
4. I'm hoping, really hoping that by the time I'm ready to do this, the economy has picked up a little more ...

So there you have it.
My goal is to save up approx $7000 (that way Christmas is covered as well ;)) and when that happens I'll drop the shoe. Seriously. How exciting is that??
