ignorance is bliss

The last week to week and a half, I have blissfully been ignoring our worsening situation........well trying to at least!
My cousin came out to visit for the long holiday weekend, and graciously paid for EVERYTHING we did or ate, which was a nice reprieve. Then we had a short week with school, and I even got a chance to go up to the college with Rob one day and get some class work done with the library book. A "friend" got married on friday, and the inlaws watched the kids so we could enjoy the reception, we had a nice yummy free dinner and even got to dance together a little bit :)
Yesterday, I sat down and read my textbooks that came in the mail because of Crystal! (thanks again!) and we watched some old movies we had around the house with the kids.
Rob even got his first paycheck since South Carolina on friday!
And then last night after the kids were in bed I sat down to look at the bills......and compare them to Rob's check..... Well we can pay for the Van, and the one credit company that is threating collection who I made payment arrangements with can get paid, and I can pay our cellphone bill so that we have phones. And that's all, the money is gone.......

It hit me again, the situation we are in.......I can't avoid it, and so far I can't fix it eithier.
I started to take a inventory of the food we had from Christina, and the things that Andrea bought for us before she left. I'm back where we were on Aug 25th, I think we have about 7-10 days worth of meat for dinners, rice and boxed potatos and frozen veggies. I have cereal, enough to last the kids about 10-14 days mabey a little longer.....we are buying soy milk with some of the money that Rob is making today painting a room for his dad. We have 2 packs of corn dogs and a loaf of bread and some peanut butter and jelly and lunch meat for lunches....again I think it will last us about 1-2 weeks.

So monday I shove back my pride and I will be calling Love Inc. to see what they can do to help us with food, and possiably a job for that matter.

I have turned in 16 Applications!!! and I have gotten 4 responses of positions being filled........I registered with Act-1 temp agency last week, and am praying that they will call me this week with something, even if its uber temporary.

Ignorance was bliss for a little bit.........guess its time to face realities deamons once again.......
thanks for listening to me vent, and I continue to ask for your prayers, and if you have or hear of anyone that is hiring for a job, or needs odd work done let me know!!!!!!
