Ok now that is taken care of and I have my friends yet because of this ASSHAT who hacked his or her way into my dreadful life.. I have some good news to report. Jeff and I got our stimulus check today in the mail. Thank goodness. We need it desparately since the job I applied for hasnt called me back. I have to say McDonalds hasnt even called me back so I dont know what to say about this.
But anyway I didnt get any photo's of Saturday for you all. We took a few dollars and put it in the gas tank and went to Fondu Lac WI to help with the flod victims down there. But one small problem Jeff had to work Saturday morning so by time we go there it was raining and the lady we were suppose to be helping wasnt home anyway. We tried calling her and couldnt find the street she lived on and so forth on down the road. The numbe Jeff was given was wrong he thinks. I mean come on if you are going to run a rescue mission get the facts straight ok..
But we tried. We had no idea she wasnt going to be home until after we got there and drove around for about half hour looking for this house that we never found. Jeff was pissed off. We were under Severe Thunderstorm warnings all day long and never knew it because we werent home to see the TV. Or even hear the weather radio. But it was nice to get out and just be a family but on the little money we have its not easy. Even though our stimulus check is here I still want to go back to work. I am ready to leave the nest for a while.
I thought maybe I sounded to desparate at my last interview and that is why she never hired me or gave me a good review with her general manager. It was a job I could handle and they didnt want me. Jeff says its because I am not mexican or work for cheap. Well you have that one right. I wont work for cheap and I could have made a career out of this job. I am hoping in the next two days maybe they will call back yet. I mean come on we got our stimulus check didnt we. Someone should call back???
But we are going to cash it tonight and put some money in Jeff's wallet and then the rest is going in the bank for food and such. It will carry us out till January if we are careful. No planned trips so we are safe. The only thing we have planned for July is my dad is coming to visit on July 9th to July 11th and then we get to go to EAA in Oshkosh because Jeff gets the tickets for free from a customer of his.
The only thing we buy at EAA usually is a soda pop and then we leave and come home and eat. We bring water and soda with us but sometimes its nice to get a fresh cold soda while walking around and then sitting and watching the air show. That is my favorite part of it. Jeff doesnt like the reinactment much because its to loud but I love watching it. Esp how they get what looks like the bombs going off. Not real ones of course but most of you understand what I am saying..Well I suppose. You all have a great day and I will catch you all tomorrow ok.... Enjoy the weather if its beautiful where you are all at... N..

Congrats on the stimulus check. I'm using it as a bank buffer myself in case any incidental unplanned expenses come up.
Sorry aiding the flood victims didn't work out. I guess everything happens for a reason.
I haven't a clue what a stimulus cheque is but I'm glad it came in time. And sorry your trip to help others didn't pan out but if you had a nice drive then it's not so bad.
I'm glad you got the check too, Tweety.
Off topic, but I want to make sure you don't miss this. I also sent you an e-mail. I changed my address because I got one of those bogus e-mails that wasn't really from you, which means they have my e-mail address and will continue to bombard me with spam, and/or sell my e-mail address to other spammers. Everyone in your e-mail address book would be safer if they changed their e-mail address.
Hammer thanks. I know about helping the flood victims. Its sad to know some of them actual lost there homes because of it.
Jeannie a stimulus check is for the American empire to make more money.. LOL.. Sorry its for people to boost the sales in Stores here from President Bush.
Gayle sorry for all the hassle. I didnt know but surely learned my lesson the hard way didnt I??
What Jeannie said. Am glad that you two had some time together at least. Weird about the flood victim thing tho.
Am keeping my fingers crossed re the job....
I'm happy for you that you got your stimulus check. Good luck on the job.
Yay! It was getting scary - I read headlines today that some people were getting way more than they should, others weren't even getting theirs. Glad its safe with you now. Now, for the stimulus of being able to put food on the table and to drive back and forth to work...
Tweety, it probably isn't your interview skills - thousands upon thousands of us are without jobs. I just read in the paper that a chain of buffet restaurants here closed their businesses, and didn't even tell their employees. People went to work and the doors were locked.
Everyday I read in the paper of more shutdowns of businesses, factories, grocery stores, etc., thanks to our global economy. What the economists don't seem to get is if we (the U.S., which consists of U.S. citizens and millions of illegal immigrants and a smattering of legal immigrants) go down, the rest of the world will as well. They can't seem to figure out someone has to stay employed to buy the cheap crap from China.
Well, you tried your best to do your part for the flood victims - its the heart that counts....
BJ thanks. It was a good day to be together. Rainy and it sucked that we couldnt help the flood victim but hey if they dont want to be home its not our fault.
Squirl thanks. It will help a little bit now that its here.
Gardenia Like Jeff said when we went to Wal mart last night if the economy falls and the banks shut down the house is ours anyway. You are right about things shutting down and slowly but things are going out of business slowly. What doesnt make sense to me is they took a mall out and tore it down about year ago and now they are putting Condominiums up there. Like anyone is going to be able to afford one.. There are no jobs to be had and they are putting up condo's. Come on...
Yup! You sure did,Tweety. I hope you received the e-mail from me informing you of my new address.
Okay, sorry but being canadian, I have no idea what a stimulus cheque is.
But, I'm glad you got it anyway :-)
I love that you're teaching your kids to help others out. That is such a valuable lesson.
Good for you!
