Okay, everyone, I'm desperate.

It's been over three years since D-Day, WH moving out, you know the rest of the history.

We moved my daughter to university this weekend. I'm exhausted. And free.

I have several job interviews this month. Would all of you please PRAY!!!

I'm tried of being broke. I'm tired of not knowing how to pay the maxed-out credit cards. I'm tired of not knowing if I'll make the rent. But most of all, I'm tired of living in the same community with XH and his wistress. I'm tired of being the poster child for this rotten situation. I hope to be moving back to the city.

I'm soooooo ready to go -- but reentering the work force at my age, after so long an absence, is no easy trick. I've had many first interviews -- but tomorrow morning is my first "second" interview, about three hours from here. I need something good to happen, somewhere.

Please everyone, pray for me, for whatever is supposed to happen, to happen. If there's some purpose to living out this prison term here, I'll do the best I can. But I just want to take care of my family, including the menagerie of animals.

And atheists -- think good thoughts, or whatever might be efficacious.

Good thoughts your way!

You'll find something, and soon. I feel it in my bones.

I've been feeling it in my bones for quite some time. That's why I'm worried. Nothing keeps happening.

Thanks for the thoughts! I'll take them!

A.M.M.

I prayed for you.

I wasn't in such bad financial situation as you (probably), but when I last was unemployed, I remember what it felt like.

When I interviewed for the job I got, I was thinking about it as if I was simply gathering information for some other people who might want the job. That put me at ease, enabled me to chat comfortably with the boss-man, which he apparently liked. The interview was on a Friday, and I was working the following Tuesday.

Relax. You are good enough.

Trust God.

Good Morning, AM -

I have prayed for your job situation this morning.

Georgia

I'll be praying for you as well throughout the day. I really believe that when the RIGHT job presents itself, you'll be rewarded--you certainly deserve it!

Best of luck!

Thanks, all.

Just wanted to wish you the best! I'm thinking about you!

Thoughts and prayers coming your way!

AMM,

I just saw this. Many prayers, and positive vibes, coming your way.

PS: You have mail.

Hey with God all things are possible. Dont "test tube" his awsome grace and love. Its boundless.......

Whose your Daddy?

Well, the job interview appears to be one of my more spectacular failures. Never before have I encountered any kind of problem like this during the interview process.

Apparently, one of the people there was put out at something I said, or didn't say. I'm trying to sort it out now ... but I do kind of wonder, if it's this bad during a job interview, what is the woman like to work for?

Who knows? Sometimes NOT getting the job is the happy ending.

Congratulations then! <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

Well even though I missed praying for this particular job, I am going to pray anyway...for the next one and all the rest.

I sure do admire that you are out there interviewing and willing to start this new journey of your life.

It is so scary, boy do I ever know. Been in my job 20 years now and planning on making a move and a career change is a scary move...until you get in the right mindset, you know the one where energy abounds and you are going to conquer the world? That big burst of unbridled courage that changes fear to excitment.

That develmaycare, hellwiththemall attitude, where either way you just can't lose because you are in motion, and that is the ticket... you are in motion.

Sending big, bright beams of universal love and best wishes your way AMM!

Thanks, Weaver.

I have no choice, so it's not a matter of being "willing" -- it's bowing to necessity.

All I can do is put it in higher hands than my own. "I" won't make it through this on my own.

Electric bill due today, or services cut off -- and I don't have the money!

Call the Housing Authority in your town and ask for help. These organizations are alloted monies to help people avoid homelessness and/or having to live without utilities.

I worked with one of my renters so she could get help when she was unable to pay her rent or her bills, and the housing authority was very helpful for her. Usually you can only get help once a year, but they can direct you to other organizations which also are alloted monies.

We have many people in this country who are facing homelessness or who are unable to pay their utility bills right now. It makes me ill to think of the foreclosures I see everyday in the paper of this tiny little town alone.

AMM, do not be afraid to ask for help right now. There will be lots of times ahead when you can offer help to others and so you need to do this to get to the place of being able to be there for others by getting the help you need now.

I'm glad you are looking to your higher power as well.

A.M., let us know how you are.

OK?

SS

Prayers, encouragaement, strength and faith to you. You can do this with reliance on the one and only who made you wonderfully and specially. You are loved, cherished and can delight in him despite your earthly challenges. He is waiting for you to fully rely on him and believe that he will see you thru this difficult time. Be strong and give all your worries to him. I am thinking of you and praying for your strength and hope to be revitalized. Hugs

I'm okay. Still working and waiting ... like the girl in the fairy tale weaving the jackets of nettles...

The prayers and thoughts are more than appreciated. My situation isn't "new," it just continues, despite my efforts to resolve it. It's turned into kind of an endurance contest.

Hugz to you and your D. Want you to know that your endurance is an inspiration to me. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

I know that in itself won't pay the bills but our mental frame of mind can do wonders in finding those hidden treasures..... even if they have t/b pulled from the most creative places. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

take care,
