I hate talking news, politics, etc. But I am really starting to get pissy here lately. As you all know I moved to Texas about 7 months ago and I have been currently trying to find a job for the last 2 months. Yes, you heard me I am still looking. I have been a few interviews and nothing. I actually got a job at a bank awhile back but what they offered to pay me wasn't even enough to cover my gas and daycare weekly. Ugh...how is one supposed to survive these days?
Don't get me wrong I am extremely thankful for what I have. I have a husband who works so hard for our country who makes not nearly enough for his sacrifices and hard work. I have a awesome mom and sister who help me so much with Layla and will send anything they think she might need. Amber one of my best girl friends who sent me cute things for the house since I had nothing really when we moved here. But, it's so wrong to say I want more?
I have a great resume and work ethic and personality so hello can a biotch get a job around here? I just want to spoil my kids at Christmas and be able to get myself ahead and not have to sit and prioritize if there is something I feel like I want to buy.
Sorry guys I am just a little discouraged today. I think I am going to go and spend my $50 gift certificate at Old Navy since you can get 20% off your entire purchase and free shipping. I guess it's not too shabby I am hitting a good sale :)

I hear ya Britt! I wish everything would just get better already! I mean it's been like a good three years since things went under, can't we get a break?
I never really felt the impact of the economy until recently having this office close down and having to work all the way in ft. pierce. like I have told you before, I am just thanking God that I still have a job. keep your head up, things will turn around, soon!
Things will get better and no matter what I will ALWAYS do what I can for my favorite sis and adorable (and favorite) niece. I love all of you and miss you guys sooo much everyday!!!! xoxox
I am sure you will find a job soon. Maybe God has different plans for you that you just don't know about right now. The economy is so hard right now, we are all feeling it in different ways. WE have two house payments because we can't sell our old one. Ugh, we justhave to pinch pennies. I wish you the best.
Hi! I just saw you were following my blog so I wanted to come & visit =] I became a Mary Kay consultant for the exact reasons you are talking about - getting paid to cover gas & daycare is tough. I love working from home and making work fit my life instead of life fitting my work. I hope you find something that works for you & your family without wearing you out. Your little girl is too cute!
