I am EXHAUSTED! Literally drained. Last night I couldn't sleep and ended up watching Springer re-runs until about 6:00 this morning when I finally conked out for a couple of hours. Guess what I did all day? Cleaned the house and watched the sky-I am a very interesting woman.
So, I think God does not want me to work. I say this because I've got an interview tomorrow in Madison and we've been having flood and tornados warnings ALL day. Apparently the interstate is under water in some places, as are many streets, and I need some of those roads to get to my interview. Ggggrrrr.
Unfortunately the rain shows no sign of stopping or letting up. It is absolutely pouring. There is water running down the wall and making a pond in my laundry room. Gross. Aaron's not home and I'm going to drown. Lovely. |

Wow... all in good time... I used to get mad when i did not get a job i wanted. Then I got the job I have not which is more than I could have hoped for. so it will all work out just have faith in yourself. your a good person so your time will come.
as for the rain I hate that is is happening to you... maybe just maybe it will make someone mad enough to leave... and then hey look a job opening lol I know i know I am not right but hey every rain cloud should have a silver lining.

I just went through this laundry bit last week. I even got the powerwasher down to the basement and blasted all the nasty stuff down the subpump! I feel your pain.
Wishing you luck on the job thing!

Disasters seem to abound this year, whether it is wild fires, tornadoes or floods. And my heart has been going out to those who were caught in the direct line of fire. I doubt, however, that the favor is returned by any of them. Our farm was in the direct line of a Kansas tornado on May 22 and was virtually destroyed. The sad thing is, nobody seems to care about that one. A farm is a business, the same as a downtown business, and when the pens, corrals, pole barns, sheds and big barn are blown to smithereens, it is just as painful to us as if we had been caught in a tornado in a completely destroyed town such as Greensburg. We are still hearing about them over a year later. They are doing a documentary on rebuilding the town, for heaven's sake! People who are caught in large scale disasters seem to have volunteers coming out of the woodwork to help clean up and rebuild. Organizations hold fundraisers and plead for donations to help them rebuild. The governor or president visits. The newspapers and internet tell their heartbreaking story of tragedy. But we have nobody who cares. We are isolated and invisible. The only help we have had is what we hired. After weeks, we still are not nearly finished with clean up. Three days ago a neighbor commented he had just put new tires on his tractor and wondered aloud if he ran over some "trash" in his field and got a flat whether he could sue the owner of the barn where the trash came from. I considered that a direct affront. Each day of my experience following this tornado's destruction I become a little more hard hearted. It's like I am being told by everyone else, "Clean up your own damn mess!" So why shouldn't I have that attitude toward anyone else who runs into a natural disaster?
