[QUOTE="Abbey, post: 129986, member: 179"] ha...don't even know where to begin. My job search is [B]REALLY[/B] wearing me down. It's taking it's toll in many ways. I'm working the business with husband, but I swear it will cost us our marriage. We did a big job last night that went very well, but in the end I wanted to strangle him. Talked to a good friend of mine who is a CEO of a major casino chain and he said things were not just slow, they were at a freeze here. Not good news.:pouting: Did get offered one job, but it requires me to carry a gun. [B]A GUN[/B]??? Ummm...no. Then, yesterday I get a call from....(drum roll here) the Dr. Phil show. My easy child daughter evidently wrote into him about her weight issue. They want me to go on the show with her for a 'bikini makeover' show. Keep in mind that she's gained over 100 pounds this last year. They wanted my input on why she has gained so much weight. Well, beside the genetic factor that has plagued her all her life, I didn't talk about the abusive boyfriend who she is still with, etc. Called daughter, said I'd be more than happy to go with her on the show, but I don't want it to be a showing of dirty laundry on national TV. Let's see..what else. easy child son, who is the captain of his swim team can't swim this year because he can't pass the physical. His eyes are so bad. Spent hundreds of dollars (keep in mind I have no job, no insurance) on getting him the right glasses/contacts. Still can't pass the eye test. He never mentioned that he can't see. Tried several different places, but they all say the same. Bottom line is that I live for the end of the day. I watch the clock until it's 9pm and jump in bed. I know my depression is in major mode. Okay...I can't even get off a soap box right now, but I'll stop venting. Abbey [/QUOTE]
