Cat Forum / Cat Anecdotes / June 2005Out of Lurkland
I have been depressed is why I haven't been posting lately. The only jobs I seem to find that I can do, I never hear from after i apply. The three Temp agencies have never called me. By the end of next month i will finally qualify to get part-time work through AARP. But I did get my bankruptcy going. My hearing date is July 28 at 4pm. And since they go alphabetically, it will be a late day for me. I will have to leave home at 2:30 to get there in time. Since I want Jeff to go with me to hold my hand, he won't be there to feed Sheba. So I have decided to feed her a small meal early and another when I get back, then give her insulin. I hope it doesn't mess with her blood sugar too much. Trying to make my money stretch for a long period, when I don't know if I will get a job soon, is nerve-wracking. I have become a first-class penny-pincher. Since i live so far from the city, I do a lot of job searching on the internet, including applications and resume, in order to save gas. $2.02 a gallon right now. Fortunately, I like pork n beans and weiners. I found some cheap food for Sheba at Walmart (Special Kitty) that has no food starch (carbs). I still smoke some; but my sister in Texas is sending me cigarettes. She gets them cheap there. But I have to give her my garden statues when she comes up here for vacation. I was originally going to take them to the Flea Market with a lot of other stuff one of these days. I am rather surprised that there aren't more jobs at the Temp Agencies with people going on summer vacation. Maybe this is a bad year for employment. But I am hanging in there. One of these days I am sure there will be a job for me. I just gotta be positive. Well, that is a quick update on my situation. I am trying to pull myself out of depression. I even started taking my vitamins again! (when I get depressed, I say, why bother?) There has just got to be a file clerk job somewhere for me. But I need it soon. Purrs, please? -- CATherine Of course purrs. Hope all goes well and things get better. > I have been depressed is why I haven't been posting lately.

Purrs that you sort out your problems and overcome your depression. I know it's not easy.

I know all about depression and how it robs you of any initiative you ever had. I am a little confused about something though, and need to make sure I have understood properly. You are down on your luck at the moment. Your sister can get you cheap cigarettes. Is she asking you to give her your garden statues in return for this "favour"?

[quoted text clipped - 4 lines] > >Tweed Well, I was telling her I planned on selling the statues at the flea market for $5 or so. She offered me $15 apiece. So I made a deal with her for the cigarettes instead, since she can get them cheaper than I can. She can't afford to just give me money and I have no idea if I could pay back a loan in a reasonable time. So we worked this deal out. And since I really like my statues, I would rather they go to someone who cares for them like I do and I will someday get to see them when i visit her. So it is a win-win situation. -- CATherine >I have been depressed is why I haven't been posting lately.

My news server had a breakdown and I only got a few posts this afternoon. So a lot of posts got lost in cyber-space. Anyway, when I finally get a job, I will be doing a dance of joy and thanking all the purrers! -- CATherine CAT, glad to hear from you again.

But people all the time are donating cases of various kinds of cat food. We never use them, they don't like to switch brands (makes for upset tummies and stinky litterboxes). So we just give it away to people who need it. There is tons of Special Kitty, a lot of Friskies, 9-Lives and Sheba down there right now. I wish there was a way I could get some to you. I wonder if the shipping cost would be exhorbitant on that. Would you be interested? Sherry >snipped > [quoted text clipped - 14 lines] > >Sherry Thanks anyway; but I am afraid the shipping cost wouldn't save me anything. However, maybe someone in the group lives near enough to drive there. Aren't you in Okla? Steve Touchstone lives in Lawton. I sure hope someone nearby can use it. -- CATherine Lots of purrs and hugs, CATherine -- try looking online at this site -- I noticed it in Newsweek and have checked it to see if there are any summer jobs for my teen son. www.snagajob.com You can look for specific jobs in your area with this -- there was mention in an email today of a retail merchandising job in our area (Albuquerque) but it sounds like this company has jobs all over -- here's a copy of the email I received: Hope this helps, Christine SnagAJob WEEKLY UPDATE **You are a subscriber to the SnagAJob Weekly Update** *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*- http://www.snagajob.com/e/Advantage Work for a FANTASTIC company and make GREAT money on a PART-TIME OR FULL- TIME basis!
