i really don't know what we're going to do. i've applied for about...60 jobs in the last 2 weeks. i've had about 10 interviews and 1 call back...and then they called me again and said nope, sorry. so now i don't have much going for me. i'm feeling a little overwhelmed at this point. i feel pressured to get a job. i actually registered to get a study guide for USPS...it's through a different company that you study and take the test and then they have about a 70% chance of getting a job once you pass....now for studying....ewwww! i took this through USPS about 2 yrs ago...i failed. i also didnt have a study guide. so we'll see what happens this time.
it would be an amazing opportunity and help us financially so much. what a blessing and an answer to our prayers if i get it. so i'll be studying like crazy for the next little while. brandon has been awesome through all of this non-sense. not too much pressure ;-) coming from him to get a job. luckily he hasn't been stressing too much, which is good cause we don't need his chrons flaring up and him back in the hospital. so please pray for me to get this job (again...i know right! *sigh*). we're just trying to find a time we can go to the temple and pray for His
blessings. we have each other to lean on right now and thats what we need. we're trying to keep calm and happy through this crap. i've been trying to keep my mind off of it and so i've been baking and doing a little photography for a friend. other than that, brandon's job is awesome right now! thank heaven. he's getting anywhere from 45-60 hrs a week. his choice. he loves his job and doesn't mind the overtime...especially the pay! we still haven't sold the red truck...have someone interested.i hope everyone is doing good and is getting excited for thanksgiving and christmas!
please keep us in your mind when going to pray!

OH man I'm so sorry to hear of your woe's. I do hope and pray that you get a good job that you love soon. I can understand the frustrations that you are feeling!!! Just try to remember that "this to shall pass". It will get better. We will for sure keep you in our prayers! Good luck!!!

I am sorry JD. I feel your pain a little bit because Chris is out of the Army in May and that means he loses his job because you have to be in the guard to keep a guard job obviously. And what a great time to lose a job with the economy the way it is. SO we are kind of in that same boat. I know things will work out though. Aren't we so glad we have the peace of mind that comes with the gospel?!
Oh, little Jillyn. You're all growed up now! I hate that you have to struggle. You're in my prayers ~ sometimes it's hard when you're right in the middle of a trial to see the point of it, but hopefully down the road you'll look back and say "hey - I'm so glad I went thru that!" Love ya girl! Chin up!
I am so sorry that things are so rough. I hope that the USPS job works out because that would be great. I hope you find a job soon.
Keep hoping!
O Jillybopper! I'm so sorry. So many people are having hard times financially right now. It will work out. There is a humbling reason for this. You are in our prayers. Love you!
That's it. You're in my prayers :)
