You are now entering the PANIC ZONE (enter at your own risk)
So yesterday morning the people who I puppysat for came home, but not before Derek and I could display our obsessions. Derek, while on the roof catching the dreaded frog, noticed that there was a hole in their gutter and that they were clogged up. So the next day he got out on the roof and fixed it.
Then, because I couldn't take it anymore, I cleaned the house. This swiffer was from a small portion of the floor... dirt and hair is a major enemy.
So now that we're coming up on my last week of lessons, I am in panic mode. After this week, I am unemployed, and my money will slowly, well probably quickly, dwindle until I screw both Derek and I (him because we share financial responsibilities) out of house and home and we end up homeless and dirty (eewww dirty). I'm not sure what to do. There are just no jobs out there, and I need to be making more money than I'm used to because I no longer have free government money to support me. In fact, I'll have to start paying back my loans, so I'm double screwed. I've started the hunt by looking into preschools (you know the place where my entire graduating class as well as a bunch of recently laid off experienced teachers are looking), no luck so far. I also joined nannies4hire.com although I'm finding out that nannies don't make shit for money (think $14,000-$19,000 a year for full time work). I'm incredibly stressed out. I freak every time I have to pay for anything, I jump on any ridiculous and undesirable effort to make money, and I am an overall cranky miserable wench.
Damn shitty economy.
