Ironically this post follows the previous post titled, ZOOOM Life and Living. I state that fact because it has been over a year since i wrote and life is very much the same, only different.
My daughter has moved out and is working at a company that basically told her everything she wanted to hear including an extortionate salary. She is working for this company but hates almost every moment. The good part is that by taking this job, she was able to move into the area that she wanted. Now she is setting herself up to find her dream job and until then, she continues to text me all day long. She still hasn't found her "people" yet, and how could she? She talks to her mom all day and complains about her awful job where she makes more than her father ever did.
My son is still unemployed but we are currently on a path to remedy that. He is working with the Dept. of Rehabilitation. This is a government agency that helps people with disabilities find jobs. This involves lots of appointments, testing and coaching. I'm kind of tired, but I stick this out because my kid needs a life, a life away from his mommy.
My husband isn't happy happy with his job either and my mother is dealing with a deep sadness. I am pretty sure she is depressed. Last week she started crying right in the middle of our phone conversation, crazy.
Me, I am wondering how to deal with everyone's sadness. I have no answers as to how I am supposed to do this. I have my own stuff and things to deal with. We have money from an inheritance and we can't even find a contractor willing to take some of it off our hands. Gosh, i don't even feel like blogging about this right now. Let's just say that everything hinges on a "friend" helping us... yeah, a friend. This "friend" is an architect and offered to draw us up some plans but that has yet to happen. Oh well.
