Today's Quote

“As parents, we should remember that our lives may be the book from the family library which the children most treasure. Are our examples worthy of emulation? Do we live in such a way that a son or a daughter may say, ‘I want to follow my dad,’ or ‘I want to be like my mother’? Unlike the book on the library shelf, the covers of which shield its contents, our lives cannot be closed. Parents, we truly are an open book in the library of learning of our homes.” Thomas S Monson

Bipolar again

It's back to feeling Bipolar. I went through this during the time when David and I were separating and getting divorced. And NO, I am not bipolar. It's just this way when things are unstable. When I have a situation where very little if anything is certain. And trying to figure out which things I can rely on and which ones I can't.

So much has changed since Jacob was born, and it causes a certain amount of emotional whiplash.

Even just since the Holidays. I have had to do some serious reevaluating.

So, here's what I currently know:

Apparently, William (Anna's) brother took a list of names and resumes to Libya last week and had them approved by the government for these people to come on board with the company and work there. David's name is said to be one of them, and was approved. William is supposed to be in town next week, and should be interviewing and signing people on by Friday the 22nd. For those who sign contracts, there is supposed to be a large amount of cash handed to them.

Meanwhile, we got a 48 hour disconnect notice for the Gas. That was 40 hours ago. For those of you who have never encountered this situation, there is a company that helps out with this sort of thing. They are called LIEAP. They help out with your main source of heating from October through February. We turned our application in to them in October or November so that this WOULDN'T happen. We now find out that they need all of these different things faxed into them in order to make their decision. We found out about the last item tonight.... it will be faxed in first thing this morning when my Mom gets to work. And then they still have to make their decision and IF we are approved, THEN they will pay the bill so that our gas doesn't get shut off. Um, HELLO!!!!!!!!! If ANYONE drops the ball in the next 8 hours, well.....

MEANWHILE, David has gotten several calls related to an application he submitted to Redbox. It looks like he has a part time job coming his way. BUT it will be at least 2 more weeks before he sees his first paycheck.

AND tonight, David is supposed to go work for Anna taking down her Calendar store in the mall. She supposedly needs him on Tuesday too. He is supposed to get paid for both days. However, this to is a paycheck we won't see for a min. of a week.

Do you see the irony? I am really getting tired of money we are "Supposed" to be getting but "Who knows when."

And then of course, we should have David's W2 any day..... And the Unemployment Appeals hearing is this month. Soooo when you add it all up, by the end of the month, we SHOULD have somewhere around $520,000 (DREAMING!) . BUT even IF that were to happen...... That's 2 weeks too late!
