dyk I just posted an album on facebook of some of Abi's most recent (past 2 weeks) artwork

dyk this one is my favorite -- a study on dimension

dyk I assumed when I saw it that my mom had worked with her while Abi was there at her house -- but my mom says nope, Abi drew it one afternoon by herself with no mention or help from my mom

dyk Sean's new pay rate was BACKDATED to last week and so his check today reflected the change $150 short

dyk which puts us $600 short now every month that he stays there

dyk he won't be there a full month and they are not getting 2 weeks -- he's going to start a new job immediately

dyk I already applied for SNAP (our local food stamp type program) and the kids reduced lunch program (which turns out even at our decent rate of pay we would have qwualified for) and WIC

dyk just so that we don't get behind if it takes more than a week or two to get hired somewhere else

dyk yep, that's what it looks like -- his check is almost $150 short

dyk if they didn't backdate it, then they didn't pay him his 3 days of paid vacation, which we requested in writing before we left and that he did have available

dyk I am going to talk to Sean at lunch and find out what's going on

dyk I am sitting here feeling like there's nothing I can do about this -- I can't call Sean -- they put a restriction on calls during the day so I can only talk to him at lunch

dyk which is in 10 minutes.....

dyk I have a feeling they didn't pay him all 3 vacation days b/c like Katy says... I am not sure you can backdate a pay cut? They didn't even tell the guys until Tuesday -- their pay periods run thursday-wed I think?
