I am moving to BC.
wow wow wow
I am shaking, I don’t know what to think. The nanny family text me yesterday asking when I was wanting to go. I thought they just didn’t need me anymore, it’s been a couple weeks since I have heard from them. I asked what they were thinking for wage since that would have been my deciding factor. Turns out they offered me 3 grand a month, that’s amazing and an opportunity I cannot pass up. I of course have a few other questions, would my wage change when the kids are back in school, would I be guaranteed a years worth of work at least. She must have got busy when the kids got home because she hadn’t answered me till today at lunch and just said she is going to call me once she discusses it all with the dad. She told me she could use me anytime after June 4th, I told her I could come out the end of June since I have family grads to go to, grooming and eyelash extension appointments to finish, not to mention my little niece Blakely turns 1 on the 27th and I don’t want to miss that. I also told her I had decided to do my first IUI at the end of June which will work out perfect (I think) I get it done then a couple days later hop on a plane or drive to BC. This is crazy I don’t know what to do my mind is just reeling with everything. Like this is an ideal opportunity for me and my future child. I’ve been looking at prenatal care in Vernon, looking at activities, shopping, ect in the area.
My mom has already told the kids at the school, they are disappointed I won’t be back. I said I would visit for sure when I could. I don’t feel it’s official yet though, I think I will need a date picked before I do. I love that the family is so supportive with my decision and still wants me to nanny for them. It will be hard to be away from my family while I’m pregnant and when baby is a few months old (I would take 3-4 months mat-leave) but I am loving that I will be able to take baby with me to work and have some “siblings” to love all over them.
Since the family will fly me back once a month I should be able to get half a day or a full day of grooming in to keep some clients and make a little bit of extra cash. I am hoping my parents or brother “rent” my house so that payment would be covered and I can still keep my house. I would still have a place to live and make my own when baby is here. I would be back to work for the summer which will be filled with lake days, splash parks, hiking, farmers markets. It will be very eventful for sure. I would move back eventually and I love my house and don’t want to give it up.
My days are going to be packed during the summer. If I end up pregnant I’ve been pinning tips on hiking while pregnant as well as traveling. I have figured I’d have to drive back a month before my due date to get ready and just in case I go into labor early and since I wouldn’t be able to fly I’d have to drive. Then I would rest up and nest at home. I would possibly even get my mom to fly out and drive back with me to make it easier. I think I’m so on edge with it all because I’m not 100% on what is happening, I like plans.
On Saturday I go to pick up my stroller!!! My friend is coming with me and she’ll possibly bring my niece if her grandma isn’t feeling well enough yet. We will get some shopping done, I am going to get some more baby items if I find something that will be useful and I really like.
