Well, I thought I had my evening planned out, and it was busy, but then some bad news from the family knocked the wind out of my sails, and I'm hoping to at least take care of the items that involve my interview tomorrow. Seems when I have a lot to deal with of my own, something happens with the family, and I gotta deal with it one way or another.....

....well, someone in the family is having an extreme problem with finances and debt which had been buillding, and I was waiting for something to happen....and now it has.....and all I can offer is a shoulder to cry on. (and that's enough!) But the bad news really dampened my spirits for the evening. I'll just add that some of their kids got very upset when they found out, and I'm really more worried about them.

So I got a few more papers filled away and off the floor as part of my organization project before the phone rang. Now I'm going to find an outfit for my interview tomorrow and organize my resumes and hope for the best. I have to take care of myself first.....and my debt first, too!!!!!

~*~*~*~Good thoughts coming your way for tomorrow~*~*~*~

Sometimes being there is the most (and the best) you can do for someone. We're all proof of that here!

Hang in there-

I hope your interview goes well!!!

It can be so hard finally getting to the point of saying you have to take care of yourself first. I'm not sure I'm there yet. But good for you. If you're there for them emotionally that's a wonderful thing. A lot of people don't have family they can count on like that!
