Looking Up?

So last week kinda sucked. If you read my post, you know why. This week however, things might be looking up. I have gotten two responses for jobs. One is a nanny gig and the other is a clothing store. While the nanny job would pay more, and probably be loads more fun, I think the job will be during the school year, and I won't be here during that time. But the clothing store job will still be cool. And hopefully I'll get a discount.

Jon is still looking. We're hoping for a manager position at the movie theater, but if that doesn't work out, I have a lot of jobs saved for him to apply to. Now it's just a matter of him actually doing it.

I'm hoping either one of the jobs works out. I need it, and I'm tired of being afraid that we don't have enough for food or gas, or even a little for fun.

I've also been down on myself a lot more recently. I can tell I've gained weight, and it isn't helping with my already low view of myself. There's a gym in the apartment but I don't feel comfortable going alone, and he'd never go with me. The only thing he wants to do is walk but that does nothing for me. I need actual exercising and work outs. But he doesn't understand that.

Sorry for cutting it short, but the writing bug just has not bitten me today.

Have a good night.

Sorry

I know it's been quite a while since I last posted anything. Life has sent me through quite a lot of twists and turns recently. I somehow made it through my freshman year of college unscathed except by my own human stupidity. I won't reveal my grades, except for two: English and US History, in which both I got an A. So I'm very proud of those grades, though everything else makes them basically obsolete. I'm mad at myself, but I already went over that in another post.

So life is really hard right now. Just over a week ago I officially moved in with Jon for the summer. While it's been great being here, the trip here, the arguments, and the lack of jobs/money, hasn't been wonderful.

I was only an hour in on my trip down here when I hit something in the road and blew out two of my tires. The money I had earned working with my dad ended up going to pay for two new tires and a lugnut key for my tires since my original one was broken. Which everyone found surprising... but not me, because the car is almost 20 years old and falling apart. Nothing can be right on it.

The arguments have been plenty, however they're not nearly as bad as they could be. For the first week, we fought every day, but they've died down immensely. I'm happy here, with him and the kitty. Although there is a possibility of us having to move because his apartment people suck. Apparently, if you don't resign your lease immediately after they give notice (even if your lease isn't up until August), they open your room up for other people to move into at the beginning of the new lease cycle. It's very annoying. I just got everything moved in, and now we may have to pack everything back up again.

Jobs wise, I've applied to about 10 and am now just waiting and hoping for something to happen. His end of the search has been slower, but he did go out and apply at the movie theater. Please send good vibes and positive thoughts our way. I know I'd really appreciate it.

Well that's iIcan say for now. it's super late and I unfortunately do need sleep to process.

Sleep tight and stay fresh,
Kaylee
