Thes...My dear Diva - I'm keeping you in my prayers. These times are so rough. We're in the same boat as so many of our friends - behind on mortgage and bills, and no way of knowing where the money is going to come from, or if it's going to come, or what are we going to do if it doesn't. <BR/><BR/>So I am really taking the 'One Day At At Time' thing at its word, and keep doing the footwork in the meantime. I refuse to suffer one single minute before I have to. I refuse to not take joy in what I do have today in fear of what I might not have tomorrow. This 24 hours I have what I need, and if worst comes to worst, I guarantee that we will all be there for each other with food and shelter. I have a spare couch (at least for now!) <BR/><BR/>I love you, Diva! And the Beanie is so very cute.Alicia Morganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14458700009032102949noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10048624.post-49580611794924455542008-11-22T15:22:00.000-08:002008-11-22T15:22:00.000-08:00One of my co-worker friends is expecting her paren...One of my co-worker friends is expecting her parents to come and live with her and her family next month.

All my utilities are 2 months late and ... well you know.<BR/><BR/>I can't work either of the PT jobs I have had for 2 years now because of the ankle BS. <BR/><BR/>I am searching for every freelance writing/blogging job I can think of. I have signed up with a couple of sites but my gut instinct is that they are full of crap.
