Hi Linda. I noticed in your other post about living your dream that things are still unsettled at your place. How is it going for dh and job hunting? I know how stressful it can be!
Thinking about you and hoping things work out!

:)

[Linda/NE]

Thank you so much for thinking of me!!

Somedays I think things will be fine and other days I feel so lost.

The insurance jobs dh looked at don't seem to be panning out. One of them they want a 4 yr. degree and the other, the agent had a heart attack the day after dh set up an appt. to see him, so dh hasn't been able to even talk to him about it.

There just doesn't seem to be anything around here that would pay enough to support a family of 7! He's looking into going back to school for computer drafting. The problem there is he can't start classes until the fall, he can barely do anything at work now, so we need something to get us through the summer. Then once he would start school we'd need something to get us along until he finishes and lands a job. We're hoping most of his previous college classes will transfer and it will only take about a year to finish. We don't figure it's worth it to move now, cause we'd just have to move again (most likely) when he found a job.

I've applied for a Early Childhood area managers job but haven't heard anything so I'm sure it's already filled. There really isn't alot of education jobs available around here.

I just hate things being up the air like this. My emotions go from the excitement of dh having regular hours and being around more, and possibly financially better off--to depressed that everything will change and pessimistic that he won't find a decent job even after we go through all this.

So, I guess all I can do is trust that God is going to lead us where we need to be--(just wish he'd walk a little faster! LOL)

Thanks again for your concern!! It's reassuring to know that even if we do move and our lives get turned completely upside down, I don't have to leave here! :)

Wow, I know exactly how you feel! You need to come for a visit!
Another great reason to love this board....amazing how our lives parallel each other so often!

Take care and come vent whenever you need to!

Sweetie, I pray that everything turns out ok. Come here anytime to vent. I know that powerless feeling of having things spin out of control, and you feel like you can't voice your fears to your dh cause then that will just make him feel more worried. Take care of yourself!!!
