Up, down, Up and down again
We moved to Georgia in March of 2014 and I gave up all income I had up north as an independent consultant. As a result, I found a position with a local firm in about a month or so that would have gone perm, was doing so until a hedge fund bought out the firm so I was sent packing as a contractor. May 9 to July 23. Wow. So I got job hunting with a vengeance and found one on Friday, not bad - some bad things but it is a job and the pay is decent so finding this in three weeks is a freaking MIRACLE in this awful economy. My wife, however, decided to spend the last few days attacking and attacking, finally compared me to a total waste of a husband married to one of her friends. That broke my positive attitude entirely, and later chewed her out for it. I have had an upbeat mood during the job hunt, had to, cannot afford negative. Went out maybe twice a week to a nice bar up the road for a single drink just to feel like I have a life dammit. She attacked me for THAT, costs money. We go out yesterday and she purchases a freaking Halloween witch for $48 and that, of course, is a WISE PURCHASE and that lead to another fight. So today backing out at the library, I tapped another car badly and wrongly parked ...... and the stress went to pieces, I fell apart. Still not put together at all and feel like sleeping apart for a while. Not happy at all.
