JOB

That's right folks, I've got me a J.O.B. As of tomorrow, I'll be the new Executive Director for the Memphis World Trade Club. And....I'm pretty excited about it. It's a part-time gig, just 10-15 hours a week from home. I think it's going to be the perfect set up for me. Since it's a club and not a business, I'll be an independent contractor. You see, all of the officers and board members are "volunteers" that have demanding day jobs already, so the club has to have someone handle the day-to-day dealings and that's going to be me. I'll manage their website and member database, coordinate their monthly club meetings and all member communications, and help manage and coordinate the details for their annual Port Night event at the Peabody in November. I don't know much about International trade, but I will very soon!

The kids are going to start Parent's Day Out at Highland two days a week (Tues. & Thurs.) so that I'm not trying to squeeze work into nap time every day. I believe it will be super flexible and low stress, which is exactly what I was hoping to find, but wasn't sure existed. I mean, where do you even look for low-stress part-time jobs that are very interesting?? And I didn't find this job, it found me. It was totally a God thing and I am so thankful. An answer to our prayers.
