Little Sad Tonight

[Luv Bunnies]

This will probably sound whiny but I'm feeling a little sad tonight and thought writing it out might make me feel better. My husband interviewed for a job almost a month ago and we've been on pins and needles waiting to hear if he got it. The recruiter kept saying she would have some news for him and then she wouldn't call for days. She said she was meeting with the company last Friday and would call but she didn't. We had to wait through another weekend with no news. Yesterday, no call. I got home today and there was a message from her saying they hired someone else.

My 11 year old son left for 5th grade science camp today with his school. My husband went as a chaperone. There's no cell phone service at the camp. I can't call him to tell him about the message. He said he would check in with me each day by calling collect from the camp phone. But I don't want to spoil his time by telling him about the message. On the other hand, he's waited long enough and should probably know so he can get on with things. I don't know if he'll call tonight since they just left this morning. On top of that, I miss my little boy already. I know he's going to have a great time and daddy will take good care of him but I still miss him.

Then this morning my 3 foster bunnies were going in for their spay/neuter surgeries. I took them back to the rescue place for the week so they could get their surgeries and medications and start healing. I will pick them up again on the weekend. I'm worried about the little girl since spay surgery is pretty major and she's such a sweet little thing. I know you're not supposed to get attached to fosters but I worried about them all day.

I will say that my 14 year old son is home with me and he's a sweetheart. And my own two bunnies are here to entertain me. Thanks for reading this far. I feel a little better now but I'm still not looking forward to breaking the news about the job to my husband.

Awww -- rough stuff! If it's possible, have your DH get a phone card so he can call and not spend as much as a collect call. If that's not possible, maybe you can get the number where he is and call him back direct?

Anyway, I hope you feel!

ugh! We hated that waiting to hear from the recruiter thing. But, how nice that DH got to go on the Camp Trip!

Remember, something will come up for your DH eventually. After being let go from a job he'd had for 8 years, my husband worked under contract for a few months, then nothing for 6 months. The job he finally got was via a friend (you know: "networking"). Hang in there.

Not getting the position this time can feel pretty defeating, can't it?

There is an opening out there for your DH. I hope it reveals itself to him soon!

Take care now and know that all will be well.
