Some weird things have been going on which leads me to believe I died and no one has the common decency to tell me.

As with just about everyone, finances can be very tight at times. To make matters worse, my husband works at a job he can't stand and worse still, it is closing the facility here and moving it to South Carolina. So, for the second time in 2 years, he is having to find another job.

A couple of days ago, I was thinking how it would be nice if I could find another part-time job ( I work out of my home 5 hours a day) to earn the extra we need. I could only fit it in between 8 a.m. and 10 a.m. (yeah, I was dreaming) and didn't have any idea where I could work for those 2 hours. The thought had no sooner entered my head when my mother-in-law called and said her medical office needed someone to work 10 hrs a week in her department...ANY two hours between 8 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. Yes, I got the job.

Then, a relative who has owed me $100 for over a year suddenly called and said he was sending me $200 because I waited so long. Of course, I'll believe it when I see it because this relative basically disappeared after I lent the money, but at least it's something to think about.

Then, a very good company called my husband from his resume he submitted and he has an interview today for the job. If he gets it, it will mean more money and stability.

Then, another company called today and wants my husband to return the call to set up an interview for yet another very good job.

And then, the mailman brought me a check for $10 from Walgreens. Apparently, they looked over their records and realized in 1999 I was overcharged for a prescription.

Anyone think I should buy a lottery ticket? Or, should I quit haunting my house and let the forces that be take me where I'm supposed to go after death?
