Will keeping a blog help to keep me sane? (Like I was every sane to start with...lol!)
I am not good at keeping dairies or blogs, but I will try ....
I have been unemployed for the past year and a half. My unemployment ran out a few months ago. I have been on job interviews with not much luck. I have had an interview as of last week and have attending training classes (not paid) to get my cdl permit. I have past the permit test as of yesterday and start behind the wheel training on Monday. So that is a highlight....
But no pay will come in until I pass the road test. So at home things are a bit strained. We have one income coming in and lots of money going out with not much to spare. I clean vacant apartments to cover our rent - a bit of a barter system. Not a job that I like at all ... but hey it keeps a roof over our heads. We also have a small child out home who is autistic - but not "officially" diagnosed. She is in the ESE program at her school for children with autism. She is a work in progress - a happy, laughing, ball of energy!!!
Right now, we are at a dangerous edge. With one income coming in, the slightest illness, extra bill, or screw up can send us falling into a downward spiral off a cliff. Dear hubby is stressed, I am stressed ...
Dear hubby works his main job - then looks for side work like car repairs, towing, scraping metal, etc. I need have this job pull threw for several reasons ... we just need to make it threw the summer and then things will be looking up.
I may have to go hat in hand to my father, because I do not see how we can make it pass these next few months. My hubby is burnt out... I have been trying to find side jobs baby sitting, but not much luck has come my way in that direction. I am dreading having to make that phone call, but I will have to :(
Well have to clean my apartment then clean the two others ... so will post later
