Congratulations on being pregnant. Is "back home" far from where you are now? Will it be closer to family? Good luck! House hunting is both exciting and scary at the same time!
1. What do you think the first sign of a better economy will be for you when that happens in the future?
**I'd say people I know would go on vacation more but it seems everyone I know has went this year except for me! Who knows, maybe employers will offer more money for jobs for people with education? Then all the people on the board who are seriously hating their students loans will not frown at them anymore and they will be smaller. I don't think the unemployment % will drop anytime soon. I think it will get worse before it gets better.
2. Has the change in the economy changed your look, your style? Simpler hair and clothes? Darker or brighter colors? Wearing the same outfit over and over? Do you think you lok better, worse, the same as always?
**I need to get my roots done!! Seriously, some hightlights would brighten my mood. And my sister is a hairdresser, so in all honesty, I haven't paid for a cut and color in years but it would take gas money to get there and she would have to be home, and I would have to be not working but I do need to do that, i miss her more than anything.
3. Do you a have a project you are working on you can share with us? (personal or professional) What skills have you used or learned to do it? How did you learn them?
**personal-reading a really good book right now that I want to finish. Also I have two more balls of yarn I need add to a crocheted blanket I am working on. Then I can put the blanket on my bed. It is part of the decoration for the room and I need curtains too but have not had the cash as of yet to buy the rod and curtains soooooooooo, soon I hope. I taught myself how to crochet, but it is not complicated (just straight lines). Everyone I have made blankets for likes them and displays them in their homes so it can't be too bad. Keeps my hands busy anyway.
**professional-I am working on paying down certain bills, as well as regular bills(without going over on my credit line hahahahahaha). I have some dated goals for them, but it depends on sales so I have hopes for them. Where did I learn how to do this? I would like to say college but I think it is just on my own and coming to grips with cash flow. That is a real tricky one! Especially with so many sales coming in and so many bills going out. One day I would like to be in and stay in the black but that won't be for a few years for sure. I'm hanging in there. It gets better every month.
