I hid my resume profiles on-line because I just wanted to focus on getting away from the man I fell for who is a con-artist. Since the day I left I have had calls for various jobs. I was out of town, renovating a rental with my mom and her fiancé, her tenant destroyed it. Anyway it took over a week, which gave me time to heal I suppose, get away from everything, and just recover in some ways, work myself to death in other ways. My cell service doesn't work in her area, so needless to say, I return home to her voicemail (a number I hadn't even given out) and there's a message about a position they would like to discuss. Odds are its temporary, but still!?!?!? I have spent years trying to get a job, I gave up, really truly I pulled the plug, and now I get opportunities like never before. I'm shocked.

I'll call first thing Monday, tried already couldn't find her name in the voicemail system. In the meantime, I have a great new haircut, mom's 2nd cousin owns a salon in small town, so for $9, plus tip, I have an awesome new do. I spent my money paying my past due storage, my stuff is safe (yippee), my car is repaired, mechanic is great! My car runs better than ever! Mom and her fiancé say it's totally fine for me to stay with them, get myself together, blah blah blah. Basically I'm looking for housing, but first things first.

I have awesome people in my life, I wish I would have listened to their warnings about this guy, but already I was in too deep. My life is better without him in it, already, which is not a complete surprise but kindof is. Divorce is filed, but paperwork is 2 weeks behind due to staff shortages (out sick, vacation, etc). I'm doing alright.
