When it rains...

it pours. Sometimes it's a good thing, like a nice warm rain that cools off a hot summer day. Sometimes is a not so good thing, like a raging thunderstorm that tears down trees and forces your kids into your bed at 3AM. Just like rainstorms, you have to take the good with the bad right? It's been almost 2 years that I've been unemployed. I've applied for literally over 150 jobs during that time, possibly more. I received a note in the mail that my unemployment benefits will run out within a couple of weeks and I went on a job applying rampage. I applied for over 20 jobs last weekend alone. I've now received 3 calls for jobs (after none for the last two years) and actually did get a job bartending at a local restaurant. I'm not sure why it happened this way, but I'm happy about it. Things are provided when they are needed. I re-read an older post from a little over a month ago where I went on a rant about everything happening for a reason and boy oh boy do I sound bitter. It is a weird saying, I still agree with that, but boy, I needed to CHILL! Now I'm just worrying that with all this good, some bad must also come. I just hope it's the thunder and not the storm.
