  1. I'm glad yours worked out! You know that song "Unanswered Prayers"? Story of my life, lol. When I was 16 I "drove away" in my car with bags packed in the trunk..off to my then-bf's house. My dad and big brother came to get me a few hours later, and I fought them but of course I'm too petite and didn't do much damage. Oh and Dad also threatened the boy with his shotgun if he ever got near me or our house again, lol! I thought it was what I wanted, at the time, but that would have been the biggest mistake of my life. I thank God my dad and brother came to get me that day...because I would
  2. My boyfriend and I have cooked more meals lately instead of eating out or fast food. I also don't buy on impulse as much as I used to. And I am going without things I need/want (such as new clothes even though mine are getting ragged out, or extra snacks, buying parts for the 4wheeler to get it running again, etc.) I have also worked overtime and picked up weekend phone duty for extra money at my work.
  3. Thank you, and good luck on your journey as well!
  4. Yes, they have my application too! I take my dogs there and happened to see the sign one day, so I applied. It's the perfect position for me, but they said it's part-time for now. But I am still interestest because I've always wanted to work in a Vet's office because I LOVE animals. I'm actually going to call them this morning to check on the status. Thanks!
  5. He bought out there because him and his family moved there a couple years ago and love it. The area is beautiful and very country. Oh, I'm 20 and he's 21. And my work is right there at the big chicken and harrys.
  6. Well, I know I can't quit my job until I find another one. That would be insane. And I don't want him to carry all the bills until then, so the only choice I have left is to look from here. I do have several vacation days to use before the end of the year, and plan on using them to go on interviews, job searches, etc...hopefully.
  7. Thank you. I just want this so bad because I've been with my boyfriend for 3 years now, only seeing him on the weekends because we live so far apart. And FINALLY he gets a house and wants me to move in with him..meaning I can see him everyday and start our lives together. And it comes at the WORSE time possible, as far as the job market goes, obviously. So now that it's finally supposed to happen, I'm so stressed because I might not even get to move in with him for a while now. And it's soo upsetting! Ughh! But thanks for the support.
  8. It doesn't matter if it's sugar-free or not, lbs are gonna drop! I lost nearly 8 pounds in the 3 days I wasn't eatting solids, or much of anything for that matter. I lived off Chocolate Pudding (the good sugary kind, lol). Only I have an advantage to easy weight loss, I had the Gastric Bypass a few years ago so it's easier to lose for me. But still, 8 lbs in 3 days? I was shocked, lol.
  9. Well I think I only said "he thinks" about one thing. I drive from Dallas to Marietta for work, and I have to fill up about every 5-6 days. I can get about 300 miles on one tank, so just 2 days of work (70 miles x 2 x 2) = 280 miles. Sooo, I'd have to fill up about every 2-3 days. And with the extra expenses of moving out and having your own house..well I'm sure most of you know about all that brings with it..I just don't feel that I could stay above water while paying for all that gas and those extra bills. I guess I shouldn't have posted for help on here..because I feel that I'm having
  10. I think that everytime I drive on that stretch of interstate/freeway (whatever..) it is between Marietta and Douglasville, I am completely terrified between all the big trucks and crazy drivers. So he's probably right. He already doesn't like me working in Little Mexico Marietta, so that is yet another reason I am looking for a job in Carrollton, Dallas, or in that surrounding area. It'd be nice to find a job, but I know it's tough times and I'm just another person in the pool. But who knows, maybe I'll get lucky? What I do know is that I CANNOT afford to live in Carrollton and work in Ma
  11. I was just telling my co-worker, if it didn't cost money to play the lottery I'd play it lol!! I would be willing to drive the 70 miles just to keep my job, because I really love my job I have now. But my boyfriend thinkg it is too unsafe a drive for a young woman to take everyday. Plus, I'd literally be driving my paycheck away. I would have barely any money left after paying for gas to get between work and home.
  12. LOL! I caught up on my NCIS when I had my surgery...
  13. Wow, thank you!! I will definately contact them.
  14. Yeah I could try that! Pretty much all of them are retired folks though, lol. We're probably going to be the youngest ones on that street. But they would definately be more familiar with the area and local companies. Thanks!
  15. Woahhh. That is just so cool! Just proves the amazing intelligence of God's creatures.
  16. All of the above..lol. Southwire isn't hiring but they have my resume. Applied at Lowe's, HD, etc. Thanks! I'm DEFINATELY not going to quit until I have another job for sure. I'm keeping this one until I get hired so I can put my 2 weeks in. If I don't have a new job by the time we close on the house, the plan is for me to keep living at home until I DO find one. Sucks bigtime, but that's how it's got to be. Which is why I'm desperate in looking for a job, because I'm so excited about finally moving in with my boyfriend that I want to move in ASAP.
  17. We are closing on a house at the end of August. I have been on a desperate search for a new job. I've worked in Marietta for 2 years, but it'll just be way to far to drive everything from Carrollton to Marietta everyday (It'd be about 70 miles from my work to our new home). I've applied at 71..yes SEVENTY-ONE..businesses so far. It's a horrible time to be looking for a job, but I'm just getting so discouraged and upset over this. I can't move in with my boyfriend until I find a job closer. I've applied at places in the Carrollton area, Waco, Temple, Dallas, Hiram, Douglasville, and areas
  18. I'm not sure if they have the best rates..but we use Walton EMC for all gas accounts at my work. I love the people there, they're all so polite and country!! The customer service is great, and they all know me by name. I guess 'cause they hear from me about twice a day, lol.
  19. I used a flea treatment on bandit, he had a seizure andb I took him to the ER vets. He was foamming too. Only it wasn't harts. It was an S name brand but can't remember the name. Hope your dog is okay!
  20. TOTALLY SWEEEEET! I love it. The BF and I are in the process of buying a house and then we're going to eventually add on to the house. When he's building my new master bath, I'm going to tell him to add this to the list of necessities.
  21. When we were little, my older brother ate a giant slug we found on the front porch after a good rain. I think I dared him to, but he was old enough to know better!! LOL.
  22. I know the feeling (sorta). The day before Christmas break from work last year, bosses sent out a company-wide email saying no Christmas bonuses, no IRA contribution for 2009 calendar year, no raises for 2009 calendar year, and no bonuses for 2009 calendar year. Two weeks later, they hired 4 new employees.
  23. LOL Sounds like me and you had the same type of day! : ) Anywho...good luck with everything and congrats!
