Happy Friday Eve, y’all! I hope you are doing well, and the week has treated you well. It has been a while since my last post, and I had promised myself I would write more, but too many things have gotten in the way. When I do write something, I am sharing it with others, so I would prefer it to be either optimistic or something happening in my life that I want to share with others. The only exciting thing that has happened recently was that we finally got snow. Of course, the week before we got snow
, we had a terrible ice storm
. I could have done without the ice
, but finally seeing snow on the ground, even if it was only for a few days, was nice! It rarely snows
in the south where I live, but when it does, everyone is sent into a panic, and they start preparing for their world to come crashing down.

I have been applying for jobs daily, but there was one job I had seen posted several times and applied for each time. Finally, I received a call to schedule an interview, and I was over the moon excited. Of course, I was extremely nervous during the interview, but I tried. I was honest with all the questions I answered and was simply just myself. Now, I must wait to see if they want to schedule a second interview. It is not that I want the job, but that I need a job. I know I would do well with the job I interviewed for, but I hope the ladies who interviewed me thought the same. Although life has not been easy lately, I refuse to surrender and will continue to fight until better days happen!

Unfortunately, I have been unemployed longer than I expected. I did apply for disability, but waiting for the government to do anything is like waiting for miracles. In my mind, the job I recently interviewed for was my only hope for a steady income and insurance, which has been lacking for too long. I have felt a heavy weight on my shoulders because I am doing everything possible to take care of myself. I also want to take care of my husband and our five amazing cats. It is something I cannot control, but I feel that if I did not excel during my interview, I ruined my chances of getting insurance again in the near future. For too long, I have felt like I have this heavy weight on my shoulders, while being held under water, and I cannot find my way to breathe easily again. This is an exhausting and stressful feeling, but the only thing I can control at this moment is to know I did the best I could during my interview, and I hope something good comes from it.

Thank you for taking the time to visit my site today. I wanted to share a slight update on what has been happening in my life. I hope something I have shared helps you understand what I have been dealing with lately, and maybe something resonates with you. As always, I am looking forward to reading any comments you may have, and I will respond as quickly as possible. Please never forget I am always sending y’all LOTS of love
, comfort, support, and MANY positive vibes
!

Always, Alyssa
