What A Week So Far.....

What a week it has been so far.....
On my husband's job front things are looking worse! What is happening now is his boss is giving him just enough work time so he will not have to pay unemployment to him. My husband was off Monday, worked Tues. from like 9 to 3, off Wed. and is working today but not sure if he will have any more work for the week though. It sure is heck having to try and figure out how to live on an amount you have no idea of what that weeks pay will be....

Then I read over at my local library website that it is now charging for inter-library loan books!
$2.00 for every book requested!!!!!! I use this all the time as my library doesn't seem to caryy many of the books required for our Biblio History Curriculum I wrote the library asking if there is any excetions for homeschoolers of teachers - I sure hope so otherwize I am up the river.....

This morning for the first time since we have lived here in Florida (almost 6 years now) the water in the animals bins were frozen!!!!!! It is darn cold out there this morning. Frost is every where on the ground, I am thankful that our heater was working last night/ this morning for sure. The animals are looking at me like what the HECK is this? Too cold for Florida!!!!!!!

Enjoy your Thurs. - Make it a good one : )

I can not believe that your inter-library is charging for books! That is just ridiculous and uncalled for when you can walk into the library and get the book for free. Ridiculous!

If you don't get a favorable response from your library directly, you should consider getting the local/state homeschool groups involved. That is a tremendous hardship on homeschoolers. And you know we homeschoolers love a fight. ;)

Hope the job situation gets better soon. That is stinky what the boss is doing, and sadly way too common.
