Two Dozen

As of yesterday I have two dozen nieces and nephews.  I also consider my friend Kellie's two boys to be my nephews, 'adopted,' as it were.  The youngest was born so quickly her mom had her at home, yesterday in the early AM.
I enjoy being an aunt - I like being able to be a part of these kids' lives, and I like being able to send them back to their Moms & Dads.  I am not going to be having any kids of my own, and being free from that pressure, I think, frees me up emotionally, physically and financially.  I am able to live my own life while (for the most part) setting a good example and being emotionally available for my nieces and nephews.
Even though I'm not a mom, I am a stay-at-home housewife.  This is because my fibromyalgia and cyclic vomiting syndrome, at times, are literally all-consuming.  I had to quit my job because the commute hurt too much, and I haven't gotten one back yet.  I do want to re-enter the workforce, but something easy and low-stress would be best, I think.  My favorite job ever was 7-11, because it was such a low-stress (& low-paying) position.  I think I may try retail sales, but I've also been thinking about maybe applying to a car dealership (there are three within a quarter mile of my home).  When I was in banking, I was consistently (every single month I worked there, including the first one and the 8 months after being promoted to operations, which was supposed to be a non-sales position) in the top five (of the state, not the company) salespersons.  I'm good with people and languages - I do need to brush up on my Spanish before even attempting to do sales in that language again - and genuinely enjoy doing sales as a job (as long as it's a product that is decent, I can't bring myself to try to convince others to purchase something I know is a crappy deal or product).  It would be part-time at first, of course.  I've been thinking about this for a while and I think I will go filling out applications later this week.  I will be looking for something easy, for some extra income as much as to alleviate the boredom that being in pain and not being able to do much creates.
Wish me luck!
