I don't normally do this kind of thing, but...

Loc: Maine (IBS-A stable since July '05!)

Adam's job, to be totally blunt about it, SUCKS. The pay is crap, the work environment blows, and now they're jerking him around with the hours and the schedule... all of this on top of him driving 60 miles each way to get there, which with current gas prices is sucking up about a quarter of his paycheck. He's not even getting medical insurance out of the deal, because we couldn't afford to have any more taken out of his check.

Soooo....

This Friday, he's going to be job-hunting up here in the local area. He's tried looking in the paper and online at job postings with absolutely no luck, so he's going to try his luck just driving around and going to every business he can think of. We're getting a little desperate. With colder weather coming, we literally cannot afford to buy any heating fuel, and to say that I'm freaking out a little is an understatement.

If you pray, if you light candles, however you send up wishes and thoughts to the deity of your choice or the universe at large, I'm asking for a few good thoughts Adam's way, if you can spare them. We've lived together for 2 years now, and we seriously just CANNOT catch a break - health problems, job losses, car problems, my ebay stuff has been SO slow - our luck is just awful. We NEED a break, and we need it before October.

Thanks for any good thoughts you can spare, guys. And hey, if you have small-town job-hunting tips, share those too. *hugs*
