Sunflowers, Farmers market, and Unemployment

Aren't these sunflowers great? I got them today at a local farmer market with Jon... I wish that I would have made a trip there earlier in the summer.. today with $20 in my pocket i got

2lbs of yukon potatoes, 1 lb of green beans, 6 ears of corn, 5 zucchinis, tomatoes,1 green pepper, 1 purple pepper, onion and these sunflowers. I thought that was a good deal for fresh grown produce of WI.

Now that i am done traveling for the summer and done with school, the reality of "i need a job" is there.. Interviews have all gone well, but no takers, its just a tough market. I applied for 5 new jobs this week so i am hoping for interviews. I do have one interview on Thurs for a job in Racine so I am focusing on that right now. I know that God has a plan for me but it just might take some time and I am trying to be patient. I am anxious to have a schedule again, have a job I enjoy and start earning a paycheck again before student loans kick in at 6 months.. I think my husband is a little more anxious for me to earn a paycheck again than I am.

Although I am anxious to get back to a job, I am also learning to make use of my free time outside of job hunting and interviewing.. I have been tackling projects like cleaning closets, drawers, bringing stuff to goodwill and other tasks. I have also been cooking more and trying new recipes which is fun. Now if only I could motivate myself to get to the gym more often with my free time! I am also enjoying the time to meet up with former coworkers for lunch and other things like that while i am available now. Work will come soon enough and I will wish for a day off then so i am trying to remind myself and just trust God, our provider.
