I want to start off with thanks for everyone's support, advice and prayers. Things got really bad for us for a while. No food at all, no phone, electric to be cut off in 3 days and our only vehicle with complete brake failure. We spent our last $70 for dh to take his state licensing exam with hopes of him getting hired back to his last job. Well 3rd time is a charm and he passed with flying colors but that is where we had total brake failure. We were able to get temporary "help" with food, utilities and rent so we are covered for the month. DH called his company back to tell them he passed his exam and they want him back!!! He starts Jan.2nd. He got his last paycheck from them last week and they paid him overtime for the 2x he took the exams but didn't pass and we had enough $ to fix the brakes, 2 new tires and an inspection. How blessed are we??? My best friends gave us a bunch of goodies for the girls' stockings and let us use their car for a couple of days while we had ours fixed. I am so happy. We are still up for a tough road financially but I know we can do it and I have learned the art of being frugal and I think it is fun too. Hugs to all of you. I am so glad I found you all.

Jessica, I wasn't around to hear when things went downhill for you but I'm glad to hear they are getting much better now. I'll keep you in my prayers that things continue to move up. *HUGS* Merry Christmas!
