Well today is Saturday. Me and the kids dont have anything to do really. I am slowly doing house work and watching TV. I made the kids clean there rooms. They gave me such a fit. They can sure make a mess without me but when it comes to cleaning it up they think I should help them do that. SHEESH!! I told them that I was not there maid and if they can make a mess then they sure as heck can clean it up. It tool about 45 minutes of them stuck in there room crying and wining but they soon figured out that I WAS NOT going to let them out until they cleaned up. They have got to learn to clean up after themselves. I cant do it all.

Eden. Thank you for your entries in my guest book. Why did I let him back in? Well I think I have a habbit of doing that with guys. I think they can change so I let them hang around. With JT its hard because overall he is a very nice guy, underneith though, he is controlling. I had a very hard time getting him out of my life. I eventually did have to go to a lady at church for some help. She is a professional counselor. We met with her and she was able to stop him in his tracks when he would try to turn my words around and control me. The problem is, he doesnt realize it. Until he does he wont ever change. I dont have the time or the energy or the need or want to hang around and wait for that to happen. The fact is (and I told him this and he was sad) he and I DONT mesh. We couldnt work and its unfortunate but its the way it is. He needs to move on like I have. Anyway, Eden that was probably more then you wanted to know. LOL But thats what happened. Im not assertive and had to have someone help me end it.

Well it is quite a borring day. The problem is I have very little money. I just got paid yesterday but there is only about forty dollars left. I made a mistake in my check book and some checks were overdrawn. My bank paid it but of course they tack on some extra fees. I think I paid near one hundred dollars in fees. Thats hard for me to swallow but I know I did it to myself. Its my fault. Anyway, normally on a Saturday we would go to Walmart and get groceries and supplies for the house. ITs usually a nice little outing but obviously I dont have the money for that. I will have to go to the store and get something because we dont have the simple things like eggs and milk.

Im hoping to get that child tax credit soon. Im not sure if I qualify or not but it would sure help if I did. If I do qualify it would have been mailed yesterday so we will see.

I had to give my two week notice at work yesterday. I make to much money now if you add my child support of 881 and my work income of 1350 per month. It puts me over the top and Ill get kicked off CCAP. I called my daycare and asked how much daycare was and she said that for all three kids its 1400 dollars per month. I cant afford that unless I quit school. I dont want to do that eather. That puts me at the bottom. So I decided to quit work and go to school full time. I should be ok with my grants and scholorships. I get paid more if I go to school full time.

Well the kids seem to be starving again and we down to our last popcycle. (bad spelling)

Ill write more later.
