Flu makes me blue!

I've tried so hard lately to keep myself healthy and sickness free. I babysat for a little guy two weeks ago and he had a fever and a runny nose but I made sure I kept my kisses and hugs few and far between. It looks as though the flu bug has caught up with me despite my hard work and flu prevention methods. Drat!

Sam and I are in the process of looking for an apartment. We saw a really cute one last Tuesday but we decided that it was a tad too pricey for us, especially since I'm still only collecting unemployment. Surprisingly there have been quite a few 1 bedroom apartments that are fairly reasonable and they include EVERYTHING! I'm talking heat, hot water, electricity, cable and wifi! What the heck?! Most of these places are in downtown Portland. In all my years of living in Maine I have never lived in downtown P-town. Not gonna lie, I'm kind of excited about being able to walk to buy groceries and visit museums on nice days without having to hop in the car.

I have sent my resume to so many companies in the past five weeks! Seriously, NO ONE is hiring it seems. I opened the newspaper the other day and there were only a few help wanted ads. I figure the state will continue to help me out financially as long as I continue to show them my efforts. I used to be bummed when I would get a new job because I always felt like I was missing out on something fun and exciting. Now that I have been out of work for three months, I can safely say, I am not missing out on anything!

Alright, well. I guess I should go check my facebook and maybe change my status.
