It's raining here too. I've finished my laundry for today... the house is still clean since we did a really deep cleaning for the inlaws to visit-- so I'm just sitting back and relaxing today unless something changes.
Samantha is very upset again today. They'd already cut her hours on her job, and she just called me because they changed the schedule for next week, and cut her hours again. They have her down for 14 hours next week.

I told her that God will provide her with something better, to not give up.
Today I'm going to do some research and see if we can't find her some grants and just let her go on to school. It will mean that we have to take on her car payment and insurance, but I can't see her just wasting time and getting only 14 hours a week. She'll never get her car paid for at that rate.
I can understand why she's frustrated. She puts in the time at work, and all her money goes for her car payment and gas. She still doesn't have anything left to put in savings or spend on herself for anything.
On another note, I have an item on ebay that I paid $30 for new a couple of years ago-- used it for 6 months, then replaced it with something else. The last time I checked, there were 7 bidders fighting over it... 11 watchers on the auction, and the current bid price is $70 with a little over 3 hours left on the auction. It will be fun to watch the last few minutes on the auction.
Hope everyone has a great day. I'm not going to stick around the forum too much, because I want to go play a couple of board games with Kara & Michael. I'll check in again later.
