I was layed off about 2 weeks ago, and Im not handling it extremely well. Because I was payed in cash (yes, a stupid move on my part) I dont even qualify for unemployment. Ive been beating the job market, with no results. The money (or lack thereof) is a huge issue, but it's also what to do with...

I was a fool, long story, but got arrested Wednesday night. At least they were nice enough to just charge me with disorderly conduct (a misdemeanor) and my mom bonded me out with her signature yesterday. One night in the county jail is enough to convince me to behave myself permanently. Go...

can get. I just wish it would END. Maybe it did, maybe it will, but Im not sure how much more I can take mentally. I started dating this illegal (as some of you may have saw in a different post) about a year ago. I slept with him on the second date, backsliding Christian that I was. Whatever...

My brother is 3 years older than I am, and up until the point he got married we were pretty close. His wife is younger than I am (24) and was my friend prior to them ever getting married. She has horses, as do I, (also own a calf) and wanted to keep them here with my mare. Ok, no problem. Add to...

Ok, since leaving a highly abusive and controlling relationship where HE took all of my spare time, I've been a little lost. I never did have a lot of friends, and the few I do have live out of state. I work over 40 hours a week, split shifts though so it seems like I have a lot of time where...

My boyfriend of one year was arrested Thursday due to a domestic assault on me. I'm ok overall, the bruises will heal a lot faster than the emotional scars will. He was an illegal, and due to this arrest, was deported this morning. I don't claim that deportation will stop the chances of me...

Long story...my now very "ex" boyfriend tried to strangle me Thursday and he was arrested for domestic violence. He's an illegal immigrant and will be deported Monday. Still just reeling from the affects of this all. My mind is going crazy I swear.

I have a friend telling me to dump my b/f because of his "disrespect" for me. The only problem I have with him is pretty basic, and it's the lack of communication. We'll be texting for instance, and than he'll drop off and never respond again. He's been known to just turn off his phone. I see...

Just curious how many of you have relocated for a new job? I'm struggling with being content where I am currently employed, for a number of reasons. I'd really like to move to another state and switch careers altogether, but lack the "guts" to follow through. I have a great family that I am...

As it started. For those of you who read the "first dates" post, my "knight in shining armour" went to a pretty typical guy, fast. He invited me over to his house tonight, and I went, even though the warning bells were ringing loudly. I know he's there alone during the week, and my better...

Went out with a coworker on Saturday night. He had asked me via text messaging about 5 weeks prior, than finally followed through. I met him at the resturaunt that he had me pick out, had a nice meal even though I was so nervous I had a tough time eating anything. He was, and always has been...

I've been having strange symptoms for the last 2 years. Generally was tingling around the mouth that would come, than go. Had a more painful episode around Christmas that was characterized by stumbling, feeling that the face muscles were numb, and my right hand going cold, literally. Again...

I had this forwarded to me from my farrier, and thought it was worth sharing. How many have had this said to you? "It's just a horse!" Just a Horse From time to time, people tell me, "lighten up, it's just a horse,"or, that's a lot of money for just a horse". They don't understand the...

Just curious, because this isn't an animal I hear a lot about besides in the industries directly applying to them. Anyone grow up on farm, live on one, or have a soft spot for these big beauties? I work on a "commercial" dairy, 415+ a shift. Holsteins, of course, but I'm amazed that they're...

Sierra was sold Saturday night, thanks to my ad on Equine.com. Her new owner is very happy with her, and intends on retraining her and using her as a CMO mount. So...I now just have Lacey and Kelly. I don't intend to buy another horse, for a number of reasons. I love the two I have, and have...

on Sunday. I'm so excited about this! It's a trade...this gal is taking Sierra (who was way beyond my capabilities and time) and I'm getting her yearling Paint filly. This filly has excellent bloodlines, and I'm really hoping to get a speed horse out of her. She is gorgeous! For those of you...

Saw him live for the first time Saturday night. I'd been a fan of his for over 10 years, and it was awesome to finally get to see him. He sounds as awesome in real life as he does on his CD's. I'll go to another concert of his in a heartbeat if I get the chance. So...anyone else out there...

I thought instead of posting this on horse forum I'd ask it here, and maybe get a wider variety of responses then just from horse owners. My pasture runs up along the neighbor's lawn. It's one strand of "hot" high-tensile fencing, with a liner of polytape. The top isn't electric. Anyway, I...

I've had my 6 year old Appy mare since she was 5 months old. I was so "horse-dumb" when I bought her. I had owned my older mare for 1 year prior, and all I knew was that I wanted an Appy with spots. Wow, did God give me a blessing! I started Lacey under saddle as a late 2 year old, but really...

Hopefully I can find a job. I have a Jailer/Dispatcher exam next Saturday (the 14th). I want this job so bad! Getting it would make my world a little easier, since finishing college kind of uprooted my schedule. Anyone else in a similar situation?
