Pray for Us

It has been way too long since I last updated. I am sure that everyone knows by now, but if you don't I lost my job the day after I last posted, February 6, 2009. I was devastated! I was with the company 8 years. I had no idea that it was going to happen because we all had been told the week before that we would probably be able to stay above water. I was the only one let go in our building because I was the over-flow in my department. I was VERY unhappy there, but stuck with it, because I knew I had to have a job. I am a lot less stressed now, but am scared that I won't find another job. I miss a FEW of my co-workers tremendously! I did get a severance from the company and then I can draw unemployment for at least 26 weeks. If anyone knows of an office job in Cedar Rapids or Marion, that you think I am qualified for, please let know.

I am online at least half the day everyday, looking to see if there is anything new, and applying if there is.

I haven't had to do this for 8 years, and it SUCKS!

Please pry for our family that something will turn up very soon!

Blessings,
Janese

Is it Spring Yet?

Well it has been way too long since I updated my blog. How is everyone doing? We are fine here. Both kids have been healthy, so far, and I am glad for that. It got up to around 40 degrees here today. It was a total heat wave to what we have been having. It kind of spoiled me. I am soooooooo ready for Spring!!!! We still have a lot of snow on the ground. Did everyone check out the new photos I posted on my blog the last time? Jaron is doing so good in wrestling this year. We are off to another tournament this weekend, but it is here, so we don't have to go too far. I would love to hear from all of my friends out there!!!

Take care,
Janese
