The good, the bad, and the ugly

The Bad: I got laid off from my job and unemployment is barely going to cover my bills.  And since this happened a week before my trip it's far to late to cancel.  Sadly, we'll have to cut back and be more selective with some of our touring choices :'(

The Good: I was really starting to hate my life there.  The environment was unfriendly and growing more uncomfortable by the week, so I'm actually relieved in a way.  I can chalk this up to a lesson learned, start looking for a new job before getting stuck in this situation!  At least while I job search I'll be at home all day so I can ride and study for my CPA exams a LOT in the mean time.

The Ugly: Poor boyfriend will have to be buying most all of the groceries and probably more than his half of rent until I get another job.


As anxious as I feel about all of it, everything is already lined up and booked for the trip, boyfriend is taking care of the ponies and a couple of friends have agreed to come out and exercise the horses a few days each week so they don't go completely idle while I'm away.



These cuties always cheer me up

 Until next time, I'll be surfing job postings :/
