My Rantings and Other Non-Sensical Thoughts

Well, as you've probably noticed, I removed my Quitmeter, because I have failed at not smoking. I started smoking on Tuesday afternoon. *sigh*. I don't have a reason why, but I can tell you I felt *HORRIBLE* for starting again. I know it's hard and it's an addiction and I am going to try again.

I think smoking is like being pregnant - you shouldn't tell people until you're at least 2 months along.

I had off today because we wanted to do a lot around the house. Some guy came out to help us with the pool, so that's already starting to look better. Then we mowed the yard, got groceries and Tom went to a job fair. He talked to a few companies and he applied for 5 jobs online. He also left another message with the woman from Wells Fargo who called him on Saturday (4th message he's left).

I'm really trying to keep it together, but he only gets unemployment for another month and I don't know what we're going to do if he doesn't find a job by then. With cutting back on all of our bills, my salary covers our bills with $36 left over. Gas isn't factored into the bills & that runs us about $40 every week and a half, so make that puts us in the hole already and that's WITHOUT groceries.

Please, please, please say some heavy duty prayers because I don't think I could handle that pressure.
