Sorry for my vent about $$ yesterday.. or was it the day before???  Anyway.. i hate to write about finances, but honestly they are what is causing me the most stress right now..

Because David wasn’t paying his child support for a good stretch of time this year, the girls’ dance bill got behind.  so now i owe something like $500 for my final bill for the year.. which has to be paid by the end of this month so that they can dance in the recital that they’ve worked all year to dance in… Needless to say to the other mothers out there, it’s kind of essential that bill gets paid.  so I am super-struggling this month because of it.. how exactly i’m going to pull this off/?? yeah.. not quite sure, but i do feel like it will work out..

I am also super concerned, because my unemployment insurance is running out in August.  So I have a plan.. i’m applying at a couple restaurants for waitressing or bartending positions for the summer.  I wish i could wait and see if I got a summer school position and then apply for these jobs, but i can’t.  I wont know if I can teach summer school until the end of June/beginning of July since it all goes by student enrollment.. and restaurants are hiring now. 

Yes, it kind of sucks to be a waitress with a Masters degree, but to be honest, it doesn’t bother me that much.  Yes, I wish i had a good paying job in my field, but right now i dont.  And I will simply do anything to provide for my children.. so i’ll apply tomorrow =)

good news is that all 3 restaurants i called tonight said that they’re hiring =).

SO.. just wanted to say that i’m really happy to be back here!!! I can’t believe that i took so long of a break from here, but i really don’t plan on repeating THAT anytime soon! =)

Also.. suggest me some new fave’s because i’m thinking a few that i used to read are gone.. and hey, I always love making new "friends"..
