thanks everyone

for your prayers lately.  I didn't get the job and am not feeling too good about myself.  Brad and I might have to reevaluate things and decide to move.  I just can't do this much longer and keep my life on hold like this if I can't find something where I'm happy.  You spend too much time at work to be this unhappy.  I'm grateful for a job and hate that the economy is what it is where some people don't have a job or are losing jobs but when I go home crying sometimes - that's not worth it.

Thanks again.

Re: thanks everyone

  • I understand your frustration, Katie.  When I was a paralegal, I would come home crying and sick to my stomach. You'll find something (and I hope its here).  I'm just so sorry its taking so long.
  • Thanks but with what I do, I don't know where else to look here so I think we'll have to go somewhere else unfortunately.  Plus now that Brad is having to do swimming/diving too, it's going to take a toll on us.

    I'm just Debbie Downer today.  Can't sell the condo, can't find a new job, can't move, can't start a family.  I feel so confined/closterphobic!!!

  • I'm so sorry it didn't work out.  I've had some big dissappointments like this before and wondered why God didn't give me what would make me happy.  Honestly, everytime He gave me something better.  Hang in there!  You're in my prayers!
  • just wanted to offer my ((hugs))
  • Katie, I'm sorry that all this is coming down on you.  I know that things will work out for you, and I'm going to continue to pray for you guys.  However, if you do look for another job, you could always come to bham Wink
  • I am so sorry. ?I know how you feel- everything just seems to happen all at once and you feel like you'll never be able to dig yourself out of a horrible situation. ?I promise it will get better though it might not seem like it right now. ?I'm a firm believer in everything happens for a reason so hang in there girl! ?We are here for you. ?:) ?Let me know if you ever need Hannah and I to come over your way and cheer you up!
  • yall are all too sweet and I hate to sound like this but I feel like I keep trying, I keep praying and I don't know what else to do.  I know God has a plan, but I wish he'd clue me in!!!

    Steph, I feel bad talking this way b/c I know you're going through a MUCH more difficult time.

    Love all yall.

  • I hope things begin to work out and look up for you really soon. I've been in a situation that I thought would never turn around, so I know a bit of what you're dealing with. Don't give up, keep trying. We are all pulling for you and praying for you.
  • I totally understand where you are coming from! My last job was like this everyday! You are totally right, you need to be happy! Your job takes a toll on everything else in your life! After alot of searching I found something else. I am hoping something will come up for you! I am definitely thinking of you!
  • Katie, I'm so so sorry! I know you wanted this job. I hate to hear you didn't get it. I know how you feel and I am praying that you find something soon! Maybe you won't have to move. I hope it doesn't come down to that but there are some Huntsville Nesties that would love a new member!! Let me know if there is anything I can do for you!

  • You deserve to be happy!  I hope things turn around for you soon.  I'll be praying that something comes your way.

  • I'm so sorry.  All of this bad stuff lately for you has GOT to mean there's something fabulous and wonderful for you on the horizon.  Keep your chin up, and come vent here anytime!  (((hugs)))
  • I'm so sorry Katie.  You deserve to be happy.  I will continue to pray that things work out for you and that you are able to do what is best for you, and your hubby, and your future. 
  • thanks again everyone.  I really appreciate it.  I continue to pray for us/myself as well.
  • Hey...I am so sorry to hear all this. I am praying for you and sending you HUGS! You just have to keep believing that for some reason you have not yet found another job. Things will get better...Hang in there!
  • I'm sorry you're going through this Katie.  Nobody deserves to be this unhappy.  Just remember that God has an even bigger and better plan for you.  I'll keep praying for you.
    Siggy coming soon....
  • Oh Katie, I'm so sorry to hear this. I was really hoping this would be the one! I understand how hard it is hear no all of the time. I'm sorry to hear that ya'll are thinking of moving. The athletic department would suffer a great loss in losing your husband!

    I hope that it doesn't come to that and something comes along for you here in Auburn. I know it is a tough situation to be in! That is exactly how I felt back in North Carolina. I knew that if I wanted to have any sort of a real job, we had to move. Luckily it worked out for the best for us, but if it hadn't and we were still in NC, I'd be equally as miserable as you are. I truly hope things turn around for you soon!!

  • I'm sorry things aren't working out Katie!!!  That other job doesn't know who they're missing!  I hope something even better comes along.

    If you do decide to move, Huntsville is a great city.  There's even an empty lot next door...

    But I hope everything looks up soon!!!!!!

  • yall are too much.

    We don't know what we're going to do yet, or where we'd go.  We couldn't do anything until Brad sees what's avail at the end of a school year.  He'd love to go to NC (ha ha Heather) and the financial industry is HUGE for me there.  But who knows.  We'd be even further from family then.

    We just have to talk about it and Brad just wants me to be happy too.  He knows how much I love it here and he likes being not too far from my family.

    God has a plan and he's going to open a door eventually but right now I'm stuck in the freaking hallway!!!! 

    We'll see what happens.  I don't want to go anywhere but I need to find something that I'm happy with.  Right now this isn't doing anything for my career, my health or anything.  Esp w/the commute.

    We'll get there though and I appreciate all the support.

    Some parts of NC are fabulous--I'd move back to NC if we moved to Raleigh in a heartbeat.

    Just don't move to Robeson county! ::shudder:: Ick!

  • ha ha, Heather, yes Raleigh is the area we would love to be in if we have to move.  Hopefully we won't get to that point.
  • I am so sorry you didn't get the job.  I am hearing alot of people that are so worried about their jobs and just unhappy.

    I sure hope things work out !!!

  • ugh!  I'm so sorry :(
  • Oh no.....I was really hoping this would be your break!!  Keep your chin up!  That just means that there is something better out there for you :)
