I did pick up a chicken and rooster yesterday! The people had them in a residental area and couldn't keep them so I volunteered. The rooster is a bity thing but can he crow!! hehehehehe - H should take lessons from him, maybe he wouldn't be invisiman if he did!

I bought DD school books today...$337 and then I got the bill for next session of crew and the trip to Portland (which I am sure DD will want to go on) for a crew total of $600. Plus, DD's 16th bday is next month and I still have to pay $350 for driving lessons sometime. I want to make her bday special and I know what she wants to do (go to Vegas with 3 friends and see "Tony and Tina's Wedding") but it is not looking good. I kept thinking of all this on the drive back to work and getting madder and madder. I know H will ignore me if I even ask him for his share. He didn't even respond to DD's email for Father's Day. Why even admit he gots a kid! He's out running around screwing whoever and partying!? I want to scream - how can I be expected to pay for everything and he gets off scott free. He thinks the $450 a month covers everything I bet and how wonderful he is doing that <gag>. It goes toward school tuition. This year I get $100 of it <yippee> because I begged and they reduced the tuition to $350 but it goes toward DD's insurance and ADD drug so I still have not enough help from him. I know other's are in worse shape than me and I have savings (thank you AUNT!!!) but I didn't sign up to parent alone!!! <needed to get it out in writing> <stomping feet and screaming> Now, back to happy thoughts of chicken and rooster. <sigh>


I am wondering if the school will give you a break in light of your situation. I know the private school my kids attend would not hesitate to help someone in need and your daughter's school might do the same.
