When It Rains, It Pours.

It seems like problems just come one right after the other. Matt is finally out of work because the company was just bullshitting them too much. He's back to job hunting and has only gotten paid 2 weeks out of the 4 he worked. There are not a lot of jobs out there right now so who knows how long it's gonna be till he finds another one. To make matters worse, our kitchen sink drain is backed up. The water from the washing machine backs up into the sink and it just doesn't drain. We tried everything we could to unblock it, liquids, hot water, unscrewed the U tube thing but nothing. The blockage is in the pipe outside the apartment. The landlord is not responsible for blocked drains so now we have to shell out money for a plumber and we really can't afford it We sill have no living or dining room furniture and the prognosis is not good. The rent is due tomorrow, luckily we have money for that, and then there are bills. This is very frustrating because I have never been in this situation before, not since I left home to join the Navy anyway. This lack of money and gainful employment makes me uneasy.

On a lighter note, I decided to drag Matt to the park this afternoon for a little while. We just sat down on a sarong under a tree and hung out for a bit. That didn't last long but it was refreshing, kinda got my mind off things. Next time I'll make it a picnic.
