It's in New York, (something?) falls.
Pristine is the thought that comes to mind.
Check out the water.
Some of the falls.

I'll keep it short, I was laid off last month.
Insurance, mortgage payments etc. will be strapping the finances very soon.
I went for an interview and recently a second.
I really need this job, it has good benefits including overtime.
Working in the manufacturing sector leaves my opportunities very limited here in the northeast.
The wife is starting to freak since we can't afford the Cobra payments and we won't have any insurance.
A wish for some luck (or prayers, is that okay?) would be appreciated.
Thanks to my friends here on FR in advance.
Never never ever give up hope; keep looking forward and up, not backward and down.
All will come right in the end, if you keep that open and positive attitude. Best regards, Jimmy
Saying a good word for you.
Things will work out, and your kids will see how a good man gets through tough times.
Prayers up!
“Commit to the Lord whatever you do and your plans will succeed.” Proverbs 16:3
When you seek God’s help and guidance, it’s more than fate. I wish I could tell you all the “coinkydinks” in my life since finding Him.
Prayers up for you - Go get ‘em!! :o)
I will be happy to pray for you yankee! We pray about our work all the time, since we are self employed!
prayer bump
We were in your position about a year ago. I found work first, not a dream job, but with benefits that eased that COBRA burden. My husband has started his own business. Slow going and still scary days, but we are on our feet and you will be too.
There is no poverty that hard work can’t cure. Your family will be in our prayers.
I thought you were talking about the Mustang Cobra car. I'm on my first cup of coffee so that explains my confusion.
We went through a few months of no work here, it was scary.
Wishing you luck and saying a prayer for you and your family.
Good thing I planned on a big garden this years, hope I don't need it!
Prayers your way!
Philippians 4:6-7 ~ “Be anxious for nothing, but in everything, by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God, and the peace of God, which passes all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.”
Philippians 4:19 ~ “And my God shall supply ALL you need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus.”
All will be well. Tomorrow the sun will rise and all will look better. Prayers up for you.
That's funny, I could never afford a Cobra or for that matter the insurance.
Things have really changed the last five years, I worked in the aircraft industry as did my wife.
The place I worked closed and moved all the work out of state. No transfers allowed.
I landed a job with a manufacturer of consumer products taking a fairly substantial pay cut. Then two years latter the massive layoffs hit where she was so she stayed home with our baby and toddler.
Things got very tight then and have been since.
Funny, we were making about a hundred thousand a year back in 2002. Prior to the layoff last month we were struggling by on less than $40,000.
We never knew how good we had it.
The friend that lined me up for the interview told me almost the same thing.
Knock them out!
Prayers for you and yours. It’s hard to be looking for a job when others depend upon you.
Definitely! Prayers on the way.
