Red is the color of the sun with my eyes closed...

Well I feel tired and groggy right now.  As a female, this happens certain times of the month so I won't go into too much detail about that.  Sort of had a long day but it's almost over and I have a snoring doggy next to me to remind me that it's time for bed.

I'm currently watching President Obama give his State of the Union Address.  I've never been a politics person and I don't know much about it but I do know that it causes a lot of controversy.  I always try to avoid controversy as much as possible especially if I don't know what I'm talking about.  I have a lot of friends and family that either love Obama or hate him.  Some even have a strong hate for him.  His speech has been pretty informative tonight.  He's basically stated a lot of what we already know.  He says he wants congress to establish a new jobs bill to ensure that new jobs are being created across the country.  I realize that this won't happen over night but it's reassuring that maybe luck will soon come.  I also realize that over the next few days I will be surrounded by people that don't like Obama but I will keep reminding myself that they don't know what it's like to be in my shoes.  Some of my friends have great jobs, some not so much but either way they HAVE jobs.  My husband has also been looking for a better job for the last year or so.  He hasn't had much luck.  Our friends constantly ask us how the job hunt is going and I know it's because they care but honestly, it seems like most of them have gotten lucky and we keep struggling and I'm sick of it.  It's almost as if I don't want to be around some of them anymore but I still plant a smile on my face around them because I'd be lost without some of our friends.  This is just a phase.  Soon we'll be back to normal and happy again... stress free... someday we won't have to worry about money and I can't wait for that day to come.

I still didn't meet with career services at school but that is supposed to happen tomorrow.  Hopefully I can get some advice and direction because I need it!!!

Well I am tired and my head hurts from wrapping it around the State of the Union address and wondering what everyone else is thinking.  I think it's time for bed, good night world!
