New Year, New Hope

Well, welcome 2009! Who would have thought? I graduated from high school in 1979...wow...so very long ago! Well, my hope is to find a really good job before June 2009 where no crazy people work. (good luck, huh?) I was laid off Dec 5Th from LVD Strippit and I finally feel like I am ok. My best friend, my Grandma died on December 18th...so it has been a not so Merry Christmas. My Grandma was the love of my life and we could talk to each other about anything. She is the only person who really loved me and who loved me unconditionally. If you know me you know I have been having family issues for the past three months and I will just say Grandma was there for me. I still cry all of the time over her death. So many things that I do and places I go remind me of her. I was always taking her little goodies and spending time with her and signing her out of the home when I could and now she is just gone. Nobody from my family calls...it is just Al and I and the pets. Al has his own teenage life... I need to find a job! I am considering volunteering or something while waiting for some sort of job call. I have applied for dozens of jobs. I really want to get a job in an engineering department doing CAD or Admin work. I have realized that CAD is my first and true passion work. I lost my 2 best buddies in 2008, Grandma and my mentor, Judy Mohn. I hope 2009 is a better year.
