For the past four months I have been unemployed.but, I am lucky.
I am surrounded by an amazing group of friends and family.
My sanity was saved when they rescued me from the cold NY winter.
They let me vent and cheered me up when I was down.
And
They bought me chinese food.
twice.
That means, two fortune cookies.
In each, a message I took as greater meaning.
In each, a message that came true.
In each, a little hope.
In each, the understanding that sometimes the little things can give you the strength to get through the big things.
In each, the realization that if it wasn't for the people that gave me a roof, made me smile and offered me a meal, I would not be where {or who} I am today.
so...to you {you know who you are} I say,
thank you.

ohhh, i totally understand where you're coming from. i was unemployed for five months until this monday. it is SO hard. but, just as you have found, you really start to appreciate the things you do have more like friends and family. hang in there! you'll find a job soon! i know you will. i did! so your turn must be right around the corner! :)
love you.
I love both of you! My "Day" and "Night"; I never have to worry, because you have each other! A bond that will never be broken!
Love, Mom
P.S. I am not sure I will be able to call you my "Day" and "Night" anymore, as I probably will never know what color hair you are going show up with in the next few months.
great blog! thanks so much for stopping by & saying hello. it's good to be connected.
and yes, steer clear of those "lucky day empty subway cars" (:
