Update

Starting over can sometimes be a scary thing. I have been in California for a week now, my funds are down to 18 bucks, and I am starting to get worried. I started an accelerated tax class on Monday which will run until the end of next week. After I complete the class I will be certified to do taxes in the state. The business that is giving the class is making it sound like I will have a job immediately. In the mean time, I will be submitting resumes online.

I have always been a very independent woman and have never depended on anyone else for anything. I didn't live with others, they lived with me. I was the one that took care of them. Now everything is reversed and I am finding that it is going to take some time to get used to. I know it has only been a week and that isn't much time at all to adjust to a major life change. Mike, his mom, and his daughter have all made me feel at home here. It isn't them, it is me and something that will pass in time.

It so awesome to wake up in my husbands arms every morning. Seems like I waited forever for that to happen and now that it has, seems like it has always been this way. I know that we have shared another lifetime together and will continue to do so when this one comes to an end. It is amazing...truly amazing!

It sounds like you are just exactly where you're supposed to be. It takes a lot of courage to allow people to help you. I'm certain you are working in return.

Blessings!

Keep on trying. California has been hit harder than some states because of the aggressive pro-employee regulations that keep companies from wanting to stay here when the economy is down. I know for a fact that the California State Tax Franchise Board has been hiring lately, though. From what I hear, a lot of people apply for the positions while still taking the classes or right before starting them.
