This just in...(from the world of the unemployed)
Yes, y'all...I'm alive. Although sometimes I wonder if it's any consolation. (laughs)
I'm still living with Jennifer, still unemployed, still struggling with Forrest (and all THAT involves), and still...waiting for something really good to happen.
This unemployment thing is really a bad trip, I'm sure most of the bazillions of unemployed folks feel the same way! But really, REALLY, I'VE HAD ENOUGH!!!!!! My unemployment benefits ran out two weeks ago, and I started to really panic. Yes, Will is working part-time at Sam's Club, but on his salary, we'll never move out.
On the advice of several clinicians and therapists, Forrest really needs his own space - being cramped up in this house is a trigger for him with his Asperger's.
As for the rest of my family, Gracyn is good, she's excited that my mom and dad are going to pick her up this Friday and take her back to Fresno with them for a week, during the Thanksgiving break. It'll be a nice little break for her and for me, although I always miss her so much.
Will and I are...ummm...well, I'm not happy, but at least I'm talking to him about not being happy. (I don't know if that's progress or the first step towards divorce) It's been twelve years of up, down, waaaaaaaaay down, a lil bit up, down again, a quick upward motion, and down to the fiery pit again. (Read between the lines)
Went on a job interview today, for a job as an Executive Assistant to the CEO of a non-profit company. It's close by (about ten minutes away) and it seemed to be promising, but I have to wait for them to call me in for an interview. (Today I interviewed for a staffing agency that recruits for them - they saw my resume on Monster.com)
I guess those are all the updates of importance. If I've forgotten something, well, send me a note and I'll see what I can do.
I'm out...
