So the bakery that I worked full-time at is now closed. The owner was advised by her Bankruptcy Accountant that it would be best to close the bakery immediately. So I came in to work on Wednesday and was told I wouldn't need to come in to work the next day. Probably was to be expected with the occasional bounced paycheck, I just didn't expect it to happen quite so soon. And if I'd known there was a Bankruptcy Accountant, I would have started looking for other jobs sooner.

I still have a part-time job and a fully-employed husband and I just filed for unemployment benefits so I won't be on the streets anytime soon. But this is going to suck balls now that it's Christmas and I have to save all my pennies so not so many Christmas gifts will be had. Well, homemade gifts are always best, yeah?

And it's going to be really weird to have all of this free-time too. Since the beginning of '07 I have had either college and work, college and work and a second job, or just two jobs. I keep thinking that I need to get things done before I have to work on Sunday or that I don't need to plan dinners for the hubby and me this week because I'll be working like always... but now that isn't relevant. I have all of my evenings off for the first time in almost 5 years. So strange...

But now I made a list of Things To Do Now That I Am Less Employed. And #8 on that list is to Apply to Fucking Everything Including Espresso Stands. This list is not, of course, in order of importance. It also includes things like, Paint toes, Work-out, Update resume, and Build a giant-ass castle in Minecraft. I got my priorities :P
