  Sorry?

  For......being........nice?

  A little lost here.

  As for fitting in....hm, I think a good chunk of us don't feel like we fit in. That's why we're here. (or leave and come back and leave and come back...)

  4 weeks left.. of work for him.. not complaining.

  just trying to remember to breathe.

  and talking (or typing) helps.. if he can't (which he likely won't) get a job here, but gets one down in _fill in the blank_ and we can't sell the house (which we likely won't) .......... .

  Free: Alrighty then sounds like we have a plan of action!!

  Noni: He is going to apply for unemployment, but that won't even cover our mortgage, let alone water/electric, cable (need cable as that's our net anyway and we need highspeed for our bus) gas etc And yep we're going for foodstamps and a friend is helping out in helping me locate other relief places....

  He is looking into that training, in fact MI does offer that, the problem is employers are not paying enough regardless. So, ok, we don't mind moving, but houses aren't moving. There are abandoned houses in even the nicer areas of MI. Abandon your house, screw up your credit. But if you can't make the bills.........

  That is basically the idea Free. Neither of us have ever been to Europe.

  And like I told him a thousand times.

  I am only flying over that dang ocean 1 time. Not 2. Just 1. 1 is enough.

  And no, I highly doubt we'd throw you off your own balcony. Just tie you up in the closet while we raid your fridge

  NJ: Thank you thank you thank you. I am trying to keep my head up. But it is so friggin depressing. We went through the want ads and the company's here and dang, it's just empty. And at the same time there are maybe thousands of unemployed people vying for the same jobs.....

  Good days, bad days Reminding ourselves constantly it could be worse....

  Ah yes, until we get to visa's, work, finding a place to live (after all, I doubt you want 4 people and a dog living with you for too long eh?) and holy shite, relearning how to drive I think they'd suspend my license after the 3rd time I smacked someone because I was driving on the wrong side

  Stilllllllll really, "retiring" over there is something we've talked about.
