Just for today trying to stay focused on hopefulness. My financial sitch is beginning to get precarious. There are a few things I can do to maybe generate a little extra $$$. It's really sinking in with me how rotten the economy is. I think I may be spending almost 50% of my income on food.

I did get feedback that my interview went well and I've asked for the job. I felt really at ease with the ladies who interviewed me and I would be working with them. Of course they are interviewing other people but at least I know I did my best and that the company had a favorable impression of me.

My kids are doing well in school (I always take that as a sign that they are happy and secure).
