Before I freewrite, the update for my health is – still sick, getting better. I’m so thankful to all of you for your suggestions, upvotes and help. I’m still weak and tired, but many of the other symptoms are gone now. Time to recover! = = I do not think I have ever been desperate. Maybe the time or circumstance is desperate, but I try hard to keep thinking of options and ideas and looking for the bright times ahead or appreciating those that are actually there as I am in hard times. When my son was 4, I was out of work from June to December. I had savings and severance from the last job, but those were running out. I only wanted to work in Coronado, because bridge traffic is so difficult. Since @bxlphabet was so young, I wanted to be close for school events and any other reason. I did my best to enjoy our time together and was cheap and tried not to worry about money. I applied for every job I could possibly do on the island and got few callbacks, even for jobs I thought were right for me. On December 1st a friend called who I had not spoken to for a few months. She asked if I had found a job yet. She had a rich friend who gave out care packages for the holidays. She had been helping a lady in Coronado for a few years, but that lady disappeared. So the rich lady gave my friend the package, and asked her to find someone to help. Five minutes later I opened a fat envelop and had: - $250 Target Card - $250 Walmart Card - (2) $100 Cards for both grocery stores in town – $400 total - (2) $500 Visa Debit Cards - $1000 total - $100 cash My friend was as shocked as I was by this generosity. I wrote a thank you note right then, and she took it to her friend who stayed anonymous. Days later, I got a job offer for a great position in walking distance and aligned with my skills. The salary was higher than any other position I had applied for. I started on Dec 6 and stayed there 7 years, and loved every minute of it. So feeling desperate during the time leading up to this really would have been a waste. My photo was taken off the balcony right when I first got to Bangkok 3 years ago with no real purpose but to help people lose weight naturally. My passport is full now and needs to be renewed. 80%+ Americans are fat. Still not desperate. My post is for the #freewrite daily challenge by @mariannewest.
