Are you serious...?

Just when I thought things were going to get worse...they got better. Never in a million years would I have thought that my mom was going to get a phone call at 5:30 pm on a Sunday from a job agency offering her a job. And never would I have thought that I would accompany her to the office to fill out paperwork, and I would end up filling out an application and get hired on the spot. So now we BOTH have jobs! It is so surreal, I still can't believe it.

I'm really excited because that means we don't have to move back to Connecticut (even though I was already looking forward to seeing my best friends), and I don't have to get rid of any of my books or my "pimp" chair; but I'm a little afraid. I don't want to get my hopes up, and then something happens and we lose this opportunity. I don't mean to be so negative, but this has happened twice with my mom this month alone. So for now, I'm cautiously happy, and very relieved.

Dusting off the spiderwebs

Wow! 8 months, that's how long I've been away. I was reading my 2 blog entries of this year...how I said it was going to be a bad year. Boy was I right! It's been a horrible year for me, I'm still trying to stay afloat but it's hard. I started school in February and I knew I was going to be too busy working and going to school to blog, and I was right. Then in August I had to withdraw from school due to financial reasons and that was pretty much the beginning of my world crumbling. I am currently unemployed and have been seeking employment for a while now to no avail. My mother is also unemployed and she hasn't had much luck in the job search field either. We're close to becoming homeless at this point. And there is a high possibility that if we don't find employment real soon we will be moving back to Connecticut.

I don't want to get into the details of how I feel about that - it's just too emotional. I just wanted to get reacquainted with this blog and with any readers that are still around. Now that I have the time, I plan on getting back to my blogging ways, so expect more blogs from yours truly. :)
