Well only one person seems to read the prayer request forum so I'll post it here in better updated detail, though it seems somewhat trite compared to what DC's got going on right now.
Well to save a long story I got laid off Saturday which I thought could be coming after my hours got cut Thursday but not two days later. Not only am I out of a job, but as of the 28th I'm out of a place to live because it's a parsonage (in a non church fashion) so I no longer get to live here. So I've totally had the rug pulled out from under me here. I'm totally overwhelmed and have no idea what's going to happen let alone how or where I'm going to move a two bedroom house full of stuff. I'm also scared silly that in the state whose economy just refuses to get better it's going to go like how it went for a year before I got this with over 1000 applications and resumes and 0 phone calls about any of them.
On the upside there might be two possibilities. First Myth and Ansley have offered there home to me very generously. Secondly about an hour from here where I used to live my step aunts good friend are selling a house and I could possibly live in it by myself pretty much in exchange for doing simple chores and such. Makes things a little bit better but worse in some ways. The house sitting option sounds really good but I have this lurking feeling that it's not right for a number of reasons. First I know my hearts not really in Michigan anymore as much as I love the metro Detroit area. Wednesday of the past week I'd acctually been talking with my small group about this and how I was going to be at least looking into moving out of state since something just wasn't right. Second I don't think I'll ever be able to relax there when it'll be similar to this situation with no seperation between work and home and it could be gone in no time and I'm back here again. As good and potentialy problem solving it sounds I just can't shake the feeling that it's not right.
I'm just so overwhelmed right now I don't know. I can only think about it so directly too or I'll just not be able to handle it. In a days time my life went from ok enough to "Oh, what am I going to do tommarow."
