Things are still going really slow.
I've been fighting with the kids a good bit of the morning. I got so upset to the point of calling their father! I nearly told him to come pick up his children. One in particular was giving my horrible time of it all. All I'm asking for is daily chores to get done. One does the dishes and tidy's the kitchen, the other tidy's the living room and dining room. I don't expect wonderful cleaning, but tidy up! The "little" one... OMG! We had a huge fight! You can ask her about how unreasonable I am. I'm fed up!
And in addition to that, I have more school work to do, and once again am way behind. I have 1/2 of one of today's projects done, and non of the other, and they're both due tonight. I should be able to do it quickly enough once I'm able to wrap my head around it. I'm trying to get as calm as I can so I actually CAN do the work.
I got Alan to put last weekend's child support into the bank, which means Feb bills are covered! It a good first step. I also have another $150 that needs to get into the bank, but have no way to get to the bank. I'm also hoping to get most if not all next (this) weekend's child support in the bank too. That would be golden, but I know I'm running low on grocery money (I think I have money for it, but can't find it). The more I can get towards bills/debt, the better off I'm going to be. I need to handle this month, so next month I can iron out all the icky details of mortgage, down payment assistance, rolling the closing costs into mortgage... working out all those details so I can head south in April and hopefully find "THE house".
