Hello, Lovelies!
I'm sorry it's been awhile since I have written, life has just been one crazy day after another (Yeah, whose isn't, right?).
Last Friday I drove from NC to MA for my best friend's bridal shower and bacherlorette party. All in all, the weekend cost me $475...ouch. And I really, REALLY didn't want to spend it - in fact, I almost didn't go! But I felt guilty since she IS my best friend and I AM in the wedding. But still, that's a lot of money! I used some of my tax return for it, but I really would have liked to put that money towards my debt. Oh well, she's worth it :)
So, fiance and I are moving. 600 miles away...back to the Northeast. I know, I know - what are we thinking, right??
Ok, so it won't be THAT bad. The weather won't be as good and the people won't be as friendly, but we'll be closer to a lot of family, and we miss that! We are looking forward to cookouts and birthday parties, stuff like that...things we haven't been able to do a whole lot of since we moved away. I'm hoping the good things will make the bad things a little easier to swallow. But, we'll see...
So, anywho, I have been searching and searching for a job (and a part-time job) back north. And it seems I am running into two major problems:
1) No one is hiring (awesome)
and
2) People I HAVE heard back from seem to be worried that I am not REALLY moving to CT since I am still living and employed in NC...but come on, people, I can't move without a job! OF COURSE I am looking while I am still here! It's so frustrating. I have no idea what the best course of action is...
We ARE lucky in one respect, though - fiance's dad owns a three-family house and we are renting an apartment from him (yes, renting...we don't want to sponge off of someone!), so if we don't have jobs right away when we move, at least we know we won't be evicted! But that's not really the point. I still have other bills I need to pay and I don't want fiance's father to think we are trying to scam him out of money, either. And I want to keep working on paying off my incredible, never-ending debt!
Sigh.
Until next time!

Keep the faith, stay focused, make the most sound decisions possible. It's awfully stressful moving before lining up a job, and in this economy it could very well be very difficult to find one. Time will tell. You are a hard working individual, so hopefully that will help you along the way. Good luck! Do your homework, but Trust in God...
