My life is changing now.
God has provided for me in the most splendid way for the past number of years. Now, He is apparently going to provide for me in a new and different way, only I have no idea what that is. There is a great big bunch of excitement and sense of anticipation.
Oh, and a lot of panic.
I need three things:
- income sufficient to provide for a family of 3.
- a house to live in.
- a car to drive.
Oh, and I need them... immediately.
My work history for the past 11 years is nil. I have no marketable skills beyond a rather disturbing ability to remember everything about the particulars of wine varieties. I have lived on such little income for the past 7 years that I cannot possibly qualify to purchase a home, and I can not even show enough of an income to rent. And, I have nothing with which to purchase a vehicle, pay first and last month's rent, or actually rent a moving truck. Mostly, it's rather alarming.
I have been gasping for breath in a dizzying survey of my available resources.
My goal for the weekend is to assemble my resume (?!) and look for available employment opportunities. That, and we are going to float the river. A little work... a little avoidance.
I was counseled by an attorney friend to find Mr Right and get myself married. Which, I, personally, think is an outstanding idea. But, I have been looking for him for a really long time, and I don't know where he's gotten to.
How, in the name of Pete, did I end up in a situation like this?

well, there is always eHarmony.com, though I would consider marriage to be the worst idea in a situation such as this!
if you mother is still staying with you, I suppose entry level jobs can be found (bad hours, bad pay) and they may have to go to public school, and you and/or mother may have to work multiple jobs to make it. sucks, but sometimes we have to do what we can do, until show another path.....

I wouldn't jump into a marriage for an income. I was in a bad marriage once, and I don;t wish to repeat the process!
Mother never ended up staying with me. She moved straight into her beautiful new house. I was reasuring her just yesterday that I won't move in with her. I think she was a little worried about that!
