Subtle Glow

my stubborn will, is learning to bend...

I am on life overload.

There is crazy - the kind that happens slowly while you’re not really paying attention.  Then there’s the crazy where you see it coming but there’s nothing you can really do about it until all of a sudden you realize OOPS!  I just lost my mind.

I think I might be trying to drive myself crazy.  At least a little bit.

I’m going to veer sharply off topic now and ask, “Are you hiring?”

My brother needs a job, and he has been looking for one for about a month now, and yet still he has no job.

Were you wondering what he is looking for?  Well, I can tell you, the answer is: pretty much anything.  Anything legal that pays regularly.  It does not even have to pay enough for him to support himself.  Just enough to give him more than zero dollars when he is done.

These types of jobs seem to be extremely hard to find.  No one seems to hire for these jobs.  He and I are both completely dumbfounded by this.

Meanwhile, my kiddo is turning 9.  I have sucked royally at planning a birthday party (again!) this year.  So, it is tentatively scheduled for next weekend, but I’m now considering moving it to the weekend after that. Because, I will be leaving that weekend and will be gone for two weeks.  So planning a party for the day before I leave sounds like the perfect way to go!

That is, of course, if I really am *trying* to drive myself crazy.

The job situation is terrible. My roomie was making $14 per hour in Omaha; then he moved here, and even with 16 years’ experience, they only offer $9 per hour. Nobody can live on that in today’s economy. I feel for your brother. But, it has to improve someday… right?
