Still no job..

[2tiredmom]

Okay. I'm getting tired of not being able to spend some quality time to myself.
Hubby has been out of work for 8 months now. We have gone though all of our savings. I know he feels bad. But really... He will not work in a factory.
He is an Ag guy all the way but only want's certain jobs. He has applied but no luck yet. If it were me I'd be out there pounding the pavement. He has even
put out there that he will relocate. Still nothing. I love my home up here. I love my dear friends that I've made up here in the last 8 years. But I will relocate so it will be my turn to stay home and do nothing all day. Am I bad or what.
Yesterday I had the day off of work. SO I cleaned, cleaned and cleaned. He sat at his computer all day. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.
I go back to work today and what does he do. He goes bow hunting. HELLO>>>> Thanks for letting me vent. It has to get better right.
Thanks again.

Oh I'm so sorry Linda! I hope he can find a new job soon and you won't have to move. But beggars can't be choosers. If I were him I think I'd take any job, especially being out of work for so long. Even if he has a job he doesn't like and isn't making much, at least he'd be making something while he looks for something better.

Thanks Lindsey,

I just had to vent.

I can understand Linda. I like having time to myself too. I don't understand, after all this time, why he won't take "something." It's better than nothing. Is he still able to draw unemployment?

You probably need to have a heart to heart. If he's not going to find work, no matter what it is, then he needs to keep that house spotless so you don't have to on your days off. He's probably doing like Rick did when he was out of work. On the computer all day trying to find jobs. I finally told him to get off his a$$ and beat the pavement, so he did. He was only out of work about 4-5 months I think, but I thought I was going to lose my mind with him around all the time.

You vent when ever you want okay, it's so much better than taking a ball bat to them...LOL

I don't know, he did teach me how to shoot a gun 20 years ago. LOL.
I'm just kidding. I love him to much for that. We also found out he is diabetic too.
He went back to the dr today and it's much better. He is on medicine so it is helping thank goodness. But dr put him on blood pressure meds today too.
It was up. When it rains it pours. I'm in the monsoon season right now. lol.

I'm really sorry Linda. It was a big adjustment for me too when my husband got sick and could no longer work. At first he was so sick, it didn't bother me, I spent all my extra time taking care of him. But then as he got better after about a year, I began to really miss my alone time at home. Now we do everything together and I am never alone anymore, but I have gradually gotten used to it.

I just don't know what I'd do if my husband couldn't/wouldn't find a job, I think I'd be plenty mad! I feel like I personally, would take any job just to bring in some income - and to show prospective employers that I had been working, even if it wasn't in my field. I have heard it looks bad to have such a long gap in your resume - although I'm not really sure about that.

I sure hope he finds work SOON!!!
