Of course, you all knew that.

I thought being employed at a job I despised was stressful. I'm finding unemployment even more stressful, paycheck whore that I've become.

Finding a job in social services at this time of cutbacks and restructuring has been frustrating. I'll keep trying and hope that someone, somewhere will hire this old woman. Hopefully soon. I need the bucks to support my grocery and bill habit.

On a totally unrelated topic, anybody want a kitten? A stray mom cat had her kittens in front of our house back in April. They're more than ready to go to new homes, but with the massive kitten and cat overpopulation we have in the Central Valley, it's hard to find good homes for the little ones. My oldest daughter took in one of the males, but we have two males and one female left. And what's even more confounding is that mom cat appears to be in heat again. Yipes, I need to make an appt. for her to be spayed, asap.

I've included a pic of the babies. Seriously, if any of my out-of-town friends want a kitten, my sister and I are ready to take a road trip. We'll travel far to get good homes for some very sweet kitties.

On a lighter note, faire season is approaching. I'm excited about seeing all my St. Luke's buddies and other faire friends. There's much sewing to do and I need to get busy.

Much love,

Anna
