We are actually trying to support our household and the daughter at college right now. And I dont know how we are going to get everything paid from day to day. I so want her to do well at school but I dont really know if we can keep paying for everything. I keep saying a small pray that Jeff or I will find a new job and things will get better. Hugs to you and Bear! I hope it all works out for you...Yarn Tailshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09547463744296641573noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20757662.post-17969459978855154092009-08-20T00:00:14.808-05:002009-08-20T00:00:14.808-05:00I know, I know, I have been MIA in blogland, but t...I know, I know, I have been MIA in blogland, but this post....well, it hits home as well for me as I am looking at about an $8000 pay cut this year.

We forgo the extras right now. And we know it will eventually get better. And it will for you, too. Keep your chin up. :)Alicehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18000962853788425167noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20757662.post-26927447096143886332009-08-14T14:05:05.097-05:002009-08-14T14:05:05.097-05:00I am sorry about the e-mail from your principal. ...I am sorry about the e-mail from your principal. How cold and insensitive. I know you thought this could happen, but a phone call would have been nice, to tell you in person and talk about any future openings or leads. <br /><br />Working more hours and coming home so tired, just can't be the answer. Sounds cliche, but what is your true passion, this might be the time to really throw all your energies into that. Do you really need those 3 hours? That way you would not need the truck and the gas and the stress. Unless, you get your insurance through the school. Do you really love being a teacher? Is it your passion?<br />I'm just asking because you have so many other talents, your blessed with them.<br /><br />Another cliche, that probably isn't helpful now, but sometimes a crisis is really an opportunity. <br /><br />Know your not alone, really.<br /><br />Take care of yourself sweetie. I'd buy a bunch of your blueberry muffins anytime!!!!<br />XXXXXXXAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20757662.post-52706781509317578692009-08-14T00:47:16.798-05:002009-08-14T00:47:16.798-05:00Working to live, and living to work...there's ...Working to live, and living to work...there's got to be a better way. I always feel tied to a job...the pay check, the insurance, the bills. It never gets any easier. Things are about to become very different for me, but I can empathize with you.
