Ramble for Feb 28th

z



It's been too long!! So sorry for not posting... Life got in the way and took over and lead me along for a while... Still haven't found a job but it is not for the lack of trying... Since Dec 10th I have averaged at least 5 positions a week in terms of applying and had 2 interviews... So hard to not get caught up in that negative thinking and all that goes along with it...

We have been struggling hard to keep our heads above water, 1 paycheck a week does not go far and we have to stay strong for the kids because I don't want them knowing how we struggle.. The have food, clean clothes, a roof over their heads and lots of love they don't need to know about the grown up problems...

We have been talking more about our wedding plans and I am so excited :) To us the wedding is not just about me... It's about us and our special day that represents how we feel about each other.

I will post again soon. I have to apply for a job online... fun :)

i admire your attitude with not wanting your kids to feel the burden. it is hard to remember to watch our words around these little people.
good luck with the job searching. i feel for you and LOATHE job interviews. I blank. Completely blank and go red and sweat.

Yep, April 25, 2009 :)

Yes it is especially when they are old enough to repeat you.

I don't like them either. I am so afraid I will make myself seem like a bumbling fool. :)

Congratulations on setting the date!! Weddings are such a special time :)

Unfortunately, my children are teenagers and are well aware of the financial problems I face. It isn't necessary to mention them, they are a part of my everyday existence. Them knowing adds a sense of guilt to go along with the pressure and stress.

I hope you find a job soon. Not just any job, but one where you will be happy. I look at job hunting as similar to dating. They both make me just shake my head, roll my eys, and think UGH!!

Thank you both for the congratulations... Amid all the stress we are still very happy and excited :)

Job hunting is the single most frustrating experience next to dating... I want to find a job I will be happy at but unfortunately that is not a complete possibility so I have to find one that I can try to be happy at...
