So, where to begin...

So I took a week's vacation to work on my bathroom (pics to follow in a later post) and ended up getting a nice summer cold. When I returned to work I found out my position was being eliminated. I'll not go into my thoughts and feelings on this at the moment, but my life has been turned upside down.

So for the last week or so I've been looking for a job, submitting resumes, putting in applications, scanning the net, and generally wanting to slit my wrists. Today our childcare was unavailable, so instead of my usual routine of job hunting and finishing the bathroom as I had planned, I'm here baby sitting.

It's hot, so I let the dogs inside to cool off. I left them for a second to have a smoke and take a phone call, only to return to find one of them had a case of the runs. So I come in to the lovely odor of dog crap. I clean this up and start to feed my son lunch. He's not agreeable to this and fights me every step of the way.

I hate looking for a job, and I currently hate my living situation.

Mary has been very supportive during this time, and for that I am extremely thankful.

Most of you already knew about this, but I guess some of you didn't. I'll let you know if we end up having our home foreclosed on or not though.
