Okay so now I am the only adult working in my house. I gotta say that was not something I was expecting. I was hoping my husband would suck it up and stay where he was, but instead they fired him. It was not a surprise. He was just a seasonal employee. But it is a bummer.
Just as things were financially starting to stabilize, I am back to the oh shit. How do we pay for that or the other thing. We just bought this house. Err... Excuse me while I panic. Now I need to cancel my private employer insurance that I just got because well, we can't afford it and the state of Arizona says we are poor enough to qualify for state medicaid. I was so excited to have my own insurance start this week. I hope I can cancel it. I mean its a life change right?
I also now regret ordering a Valentines Day Gift. Damn, now we definitely can't afford it. Shit it already shipped. Yes I am still panicking!
So what do I do? Should I get a second job? A better paying gig? I like the new gig. I mean how many people can say that they got a chance to work for Facebook's Marketing Team? Its a great opportunity for me to learn about Social Media and marketing in general. Yes I thought I knew everything about Facebook. Now I know I didn't know shit about it.
I was planning on going back to school with the help of my Vocational Rehabilitation Counselor, which I finally get an appointment with later this month. I managed to get my Mom to agree to help me with my school debt so I can go back to classes later too. I also wanted to take a class at the Community College to work with Adobe Suite Software and learn more about the graphic side of advertising. Though that would be awesome and fun. But now I am panicking.... Do I continue with my plan to go back to school and learn more about Marketing or do I look for a second job so we can get off Government Assistant.
For those of you asking, why doesn't he just get a different job? You have missed a lot. He is not the type of man that will get a job, any job, even if its one he does not like so his family can be financially secure. He is the type of guy that only wants to take a job he thinks is easy or doesn't work with people. Turns out he hates people. All previous suggestions that he go work at one of the fast food joints or retail stores have not gone well.
So let me know what you think. Should I continue with my plan to return to school or drop that to get a second job?
