Another THANK YOU & a tiny update :)
First, thank you ALL. Again. The love that was pouring out of my mailbox today was so much more then I even, in a million years, expected. I can't say thank you enough, to each and every one of you, for the thoughts, prayers, cards, gifts and general good juju. You rock, in a big, big way.
And now a little update 
I had a VERY weird interview today with a very, very Christian company in the Springs (though not Focus on the Family ). When they called to schedule the interview, they called me back to tell me it was a Christian company, and asked if I was "ok working in that environment." I said of course, so off to the interview I went!
I'm very qualified skills-wise, and the conversation with the interviewer was good. There's not a chance I'm getting the job, though, since he told me his number one priority was to hire someone who "really believed in the mission & vision of the company, and was really passionate about it." So I'm pretty sure that this liberal, non-church-going Jew isn't quite the candidate they are looking for, but it was a great conversation and interviewing is always good practice.
AND. . . I have an interview tomorrow for a job in Greeley. It's a total departure from what I've done before, and pays about half of what I made previously, but I'm excited about it. It sounds like a cool job, and a new direction, so I'm crossing my fingers that they like me and will come up on the dollars.
Thank you all for the juju - it's working!! And because of you, I feel like there's actually a light at the end of this brutally long tunnel. In so many ways, you have literally saved me. So thank you

Katie Talks About...
I've applied for lots of jobs in Christian and Catholic organizations... it's what's available in social services right now so that's where I might end up. I don't disclose that I'm Jewish (then again, I haven't been given an interview so...) but I probably wouldn't lie and say that I completely align with their mission spiritually... so hard to say. I'd hate to say something in an interview that would make me ineligible for a job (ANY job) right now...
I really hope the interview in Greeley is something awesome for you! Can't wait to hear all about it!

Good luck! And I happen to know you haven't seen the last of the mail. We're all rooting for you.
And I lived in Greeley for 20 years. Very family friendly, IMO. hope it goes well.

Thank you - for now AND future! I went to school in Greeley, so I'm pretty comfortable there, but we actually wouldn't move, I don't think. We live on the north end of Denver, so it's about 50 minutes away. I'd probably just commute, especially if I can do 7-4 or something like that!
We'll see - for now, it's just nice to not feel like there's no options at all!

Yay for good news! Continued hugs, thoughts & prayers.
