The Good, the Bad, and the Funny Part 6

Journaling:

I am a little scared. My mother called tonight. She suffered a heart attack at work a few years ago on Christmas. She is almost 62 and she was going to retire her business to my H next February. She has given me several nights where I am the manager but she is fed up. She was scolding me to teach full time and to give up working nights. She wants me to take care of myself or else she will have another heart attack trying to help support me and my kids. My H is just giving me a couple of hundred here and there when he gets pais. Nothing for two and half months though until yesterday. H is so unreliable. Obviously. Maybe my mother is just bluffing so I wil say I will take over the business. I signed a part time teaching contract until August. Even if I taught full time I would barely make ends meet in Northern California. I live in one of the priciest places in the country. To compare my mom makes in one weeken what I make in a whole month teaching full time. She banks in one year what it would take me 6 years to make because teachers are paid so low in my district. Oh and H. He makes about $16 hour at his state job. Good for a kid right out of high school but it is hard for someone who has to support a family at the age of 39. Ugh. The money sitch could be worse but Xmas is gonna be cookies this year.
