My husband lost his job in September, so I completely understand. I'm going to be taking some of this advice to heart.
Good luck! I know a place that is always hiring. Great advancement opportunities, see the world. Join the Army. It's SOOO awesome.
Oh Tiffany, leave it to you to find humor in the midst of adversity. :) You kind of have to in this life, don't you think? I hope that something great is in store for you in the very near future!!
I fully support all of your money making/saving schemes, I mean plans.
Loosing your job feels like getting punched in the gut, and it hurts for awhile. But, good things do come. I wouldn't be surprised to see you in a better situation very soon! Until then, Max's cute face will bring in loads of cash with the panhandling. Lots of Love.
It's a perfect time to finish/revise/sell/whatever-stage-you-happen-to-be-in-right-now-on-your novel, eh?
Your list is hilarious! Thanks for making me smile this morning. You're right, good things are to come, I just know it!
hmmm, I think you accidentally left out "workin' the corner". It's okay, you can edit to add.
You have the best sense of humor. I think you do have some totally solid ideas there. Let me know which ones are the most successful.
What is extortion exactly?
hang in there kid.
love yer gutz!
I knew Lucy's tongue was good for something other than licking your guests. :) Yes! Good things are in store for you!
I would pay to see y'all pan-handle!
We need to talk, it's been too long.
I hope the new gig can cut out at least the charging the neighbor kids...poor guys! ;)
funny as always. Also, that supposed FB "friend" of mine never responded to my message. Guess she really didn't need the best freelance writer to be had ..... her loss.
I feel terrible that I didn't know about your job loss! Moreover, how could they let go the best cookie description writer on the East Coast??? I HEREBY BOYCOTT MRS.FIELDS!!! (At least until next week...come on, it's mall season!)
