packing

Well the economy has kicked me where it hurts, not only was I laid off a year ago and still not working, but now I am giving up my house and my independence and moving in with a friend. I know it is only temporary and she is a really good friend to open her home up to me, but it is still very hard. So I am digging out the boxes from the garage and getting all my precious things packed away. All I need to take with me to her place is my bedroom furniture and clothes. I know in my heart that it will be fine, but still there are no words to express what I feel in my heart. I am sad beyond belief.

My focus still remains on school and getting the best grades possible. I have to get work before I finish school, something, anything. Living with a friend will be less rent, so my monthly expenses will be so much easier to handle on my unemployment. It ends on March 21, and don't know if I can get an extension. I am praying for a job so I don't have to file for an extension.

Then when I finish school, I am so praying that I find a job in my chosen career of medical office management. I won't have experience, but will have the education.

So this move is temporary and I believe 100% it is temporary. Now I know how my daughter felt, when they had to move in with me. I opened my home to my kids to help them get on their feet and would do it again in a heartbeat. So I need to just relax and move and be thankful that I have a friend who is in a position to open her home up for me. I can't move in with my daughter, she is getting ready to move back to Colorado. And my other children live in different states, so moving with them is out of the question. I love Arizona and want to stay here.

It will be a busy month; packing, storing, moving, and going to my son's wedding. And oh yeah, school; free writing, draft, final all at the same time; not to mention my math class as well which is kicking my butt.

Well until next post......
