When i was a little girl they had these commercials where a Mom was completely stressed out and she would yell "Calgon take me away". The scene would switch to her in a big bubble bath with the box of Calgon sitting beside her. One day I looked at the Grandmother and asked her if she wanted god to take her away. She responded; "no! I don't want to die". I thought the commercial was saying 'Now God' instead of 'Calgon'. Needless to say anytime things are going kind of crappy I think "Calgon take me away" now.
It's been a terrible weekend with 'family' fights and all I really want to do is find a good job and find a place for my kids and I so we can live in peace and not worry about what everyone thinks around us all the time. This job market is the worst. Back before I got the stinky job at McDonalds I stopped counting at 76 resumes and jobs applied for. 76! You'd think since I'm working on a college degree in Web and Graphics Design I'd at least be able to find some receptionist job in a tech company, but no.
I have the money saved to fix my car and I'm just hoping that it's enough to do it and pass MD inspection. Then maybe I can find a good job that will pay me at least 30k a year, get some child care for the baby and save up some money in order to get the kids and I into a place this summer. That's my goal at least.
