She Works Hard For Her Money

The Captain lost his job today. He's been there for 6 months and was starting to get concerned because he wasn't pulling in customers and numbers like the others. No one talked to him at all about it in this time frame. His boss told him that there was nothing he could have done differently to have a better outcome.

I'll now be working more hours at the store which is great except that the husband will be out with the father in law doing contracting stuff all the time now. Which means, when I really need a nap (and lately I've been having killer migraines, KILLER) I won't be able to partake in the festivity of said nap. Meh.

Hopefully he'll find something soon. I think we're gonna end up on MA for the kids because my work is union and there are almost a dozen people in front of me who want full time.

Please let the "Life Sucks Royally But We Shall Overcome" phase begin.

"Life Sucks Royally But We Shall Overcome" - doesn't it just?

Having been "financially challenged" for the last decade, and seeing a definite change for the better in our quality of life in the last 4 years, I have to say that the climb up began once the "We Shall Overcome" kicked in. I really believe that if you let yourself get discouraged, you'll never get out.

Oddly, my finances aren't much improved (I have less debt, but make less money) now, but the jobs are more to my liking. Maybe, going after the Dream Job I'm Not Supposed to Be Allowed to Have, was the key...?

Good luck to hubby in the job-hunt... I'm sure he'll find something soon. And as for MA - hey, you do what you gotta do for your kids, right? That's why it's there.
That blows. Sorry about his job.

On a different note, my doctor hooked me up with these lovely pills that I take if I see spots and my migraines don't develop fully if I take them. You may have already tried this and it may not work for you, but it's been a life saver for me.

I am so sorry to hear this, Trish. He was in a really tough business. I know he will find something that he loves, and you will get a house, and life will be wonderful. Just have faith!

Trish, I've got the choir warming up but before you start singing...remember: it is what it is...Here I sit 4,000 miles away from the Queens english, with 14 credits towards a MA pulling weeds to make it happen for my kids...sometimes overcoming is a bitch and it seems too much to ask...Hold ON!!!!

Nice To Meet You

Hi. I just got here last week. They call me the Littlest Little. I'm glad to be here and I'm sure I'll be seein' ya around. This my mama. She's always telling me that she loves me and is so blessed to have me in her life. Sometimes she cries. Wait, that's all the time. Someone should get her a tissue or two or a box. This is my daddy. See my pinky here? He's wrapped around it already. I don't think he minds though. This is Fluffy and she's the coolest auntie there is. Her little girl, Monkey? I dig that one. Hopefully she and I can be the best of friends. It's my uncle, Pedro Juan. Everyone says I'm a mellow baby and that he was the same way when he was but a baby. That's cool with me. I love my Peej. Hopefully I'll have photos of me with my cousins and siblings tomorrow. And Uncle Kota? Mama is trying to find the picture of us together. She's not all that fast on the uptake. Cut her some slack though k? If she gets her poop in...

Help, I Need Somebody, Help, Not Just Anybody, Heeeeeelp!

So yeah, there's a lot of crap on that side of the page ya know? ~~~~~> I want to make this three columns wide. Two smalls on the sides and one large for my useless words and thoughts. I need to move some of that crap somewhere else and I'd rather the somewhere else not be the garbage. I'm still in Blogger. I have no clue how to go about getting my own domain name, what is a good cost, who to trust. So please, help a bloggin' sister out. Any helpful advice, tips, paths in the right direction would be AWESOME! I don't mind paying someone to hook me up. I would like to note however, I don't have one of those magical money trees. Thanks folks. I heart you all.* *except you people who come here for the Doodlebops sans makeup. I mean I like that I have "a lot"** of traffic but it's really rather depressing when 70% of it is from that alone. Christ, what else is out there to boost the traffic? Johnny does the Sprites and there is video? **and by a lo...
