Well - we just got back home from being up North this weekend
Trek talked with his father about the possibility of living in their rental house
He said yes - showed us the house - and told us all the rules

We've been trying to make this move happen for quite some time now
Since last October if you want to be more exact...
We we're planning on being up their just before Christmas
But it just never worked out right to happen for us

Almost every other weekend we've been trying to go up there
So Trek and I could look for jobs and talk to people about employment opportunitys
He is a very good worker with a great history and has never been turned down for a job!

But whenever he would go in for an interview or to talk to someone
They seemed interested in him but we would never hear back

We finally asked a few people what the problem could be
And they all told us that nobody wants to hire someone who needs to relocate for a job

So - after getting a few paychecks
And a small tax return

We're planning on moving back up north
Without any jobs set up for us
Which is HORRIFYING

We have enough money set aside to make it for 3 months
This includes no extras - limited gas for cars - and limited food
NO EXTRAS - no fun stuff, no eating out, no random purchases

Which we are both fine with
This move really needs to happen
It's needed to happen for a while now
If you'd like me to explain why - just ask and I'll dish it out for you

But yes - even though we have the money set aside for 3 months
It is still terrifying not having any kind of stable income
Having no jobs or anything to fall back on...

As soon as we get down there and set up the house
The job hunt WILL be on - even if we get crappy fast food jobs
But until then we will be living off of just savings...

So I am asking you guys for help
Any commissions or donations you guys would be willing to give
Will be added to our savings and help us just that much more

A dollar will buy two cans of tuna
Five dollars will buy a crate of ramen
Ten dollars will buy some gas to go job hunting

The list goes on of the simple things a small amount of money will do

So I'm asking you guys for help
I've been honest in saying we're not flat broke
And we do have a little money saved up
But this is just kind of a scary thing to go through

So if anyone can help in any way we would greatly appreciate it
I don't mind "haggling" for commissions right now
And even small donations will be rewarded in some way

And even if you can't help out just spreading the word can often make an impact
So post a journal or tell a friend who's been looking to commission someone

I'll be making a journal of any progress and names of donators as soon as things get rolling
I appreciate you taking the time to read this - and thank you for any kind of help in advance
It really means the world to both Trek and I
