Wrenches thrown into life

Just when I thought that life was finally back on the right track, a major wrench is thrown in the journey. But first, I should go back a few weeks. As I mentioned before I was accepted to a graduate program. I began my studies two weeks ago and so far have been enjoying it. About three weeks ago I started a new job. Well, not exactly new. It was the job I was doing as a temp but now I am a full-time, permanent employee. So things were looking up until.... Tuesday. Kasich released his proposed state budget and the agency I just joined is facing a more than 50% budget cut. There is now a campaign to get the legislators to reverse some of this cut so that no one loses their job. So now my employment fate lies in the hands of our elected officials at that statehouse. Say a little prayer that things work out for the best as I really do not want to be looking for another job in three months.
