Well, today started out badly. I got up, got dressed and went to the jobsite that I worked at yesterday. I sat there for over anhour waiting for someone else to show up to get the day started- after all, this was supposed to be an 8 hour day for me. Nobody showed up by 8am, so I called and started home. When someone finally called me back, I learned that I was not needed until next Monday. Needless to say, I am home looking for work. I put in another application for a job that I felt I was qualified for, submitted my resume' after adjusting it to fit this particular job. Now the waiting game starts. Hopefully I hear something in a day or 2, but I think that I will call the company and ensure that my resume' is there. It can't hurt, and maybe it will get my name noticed... who knows? I do know that I need to find something that can ensure me a full time paycheck.

I am looking for a small truck. I hope to use it to generate income of some sort; gosh, raking leaves, removing clutter, anything. Of course, the problem is I only have a limited amount of money, generated through the sale of my full sized truck and my little daily driver. I hope to find something suitable in the next few days, but I refuse to go off half-cocked. That's how you get screwed.

It's funny, you know? I spent so much time thinking that I would be able to find meaningful work that I didn't worry too much about it when I was active duty. Makes me think about the ant and the grasshopper http://www.dltk-teach.com/fables/grasshopper/mstory.htm. Well, winter is here (figuratively, as well as physically) and I am running out of food. Oops.
