In the last seven months, I have, for the first time, been gainfully, full-time, non-seasonally employed. For pay. With benefits. Way more than 9-5, on most days, except Friday, which is more like 9-3.
And I'm married.
And I just volunteered for the leadership committee of the minyan we attend.
So, all in all, I'm a busy woman with much less time to think than I would like. Also, less time, and more importantly, inclination to learn. My job uses most of my brain power. I'm happy with my job. I like it alot. It IS somewhat of a culture shock to go from always doing lots of "book learning" to full time lab work and all the things that go along with it.
I think at some point in the near future, I will realize my dream of becoming a professional Niddah Guide (note, I did not use the words "Kallah Teacher." Not only Kallahs want to learn about Niddah, and I would definitely rather see myself as a guide to the sources than presenting myself as having all the answers.) So the only Torah learning I do lately is reviewing Niddah over and over again, in the hopes that when I have whom to learn with, I won't have forgotten everything I learned.
