Ups and Downs

Well, it's been a season of ups and downs for us. Mike got a job at Belleville Shoe Company in November only to get laid off today, so we are looking for jobs for him again. What sucks is that he wasn't there long enough to get any unemployment.

We had a great Christmas with my family though it was a little disappointing because we weren't able to buy presents for each other at all. We were waiting until his first paycheck this year but it looks like it could be awhile.

We promised each other that this is the year that we are going to make things happen for ourselves. We aren't going to sit here and let opportunities and such go by again. There are things we want out of life and it's becoming more and more obvious that we aren't going to get it if we depend on an employer paying us.

My AVON sales aren't going the greatest, but it's gas money every 2 weeks at least.
