I'll have to check in later to catch up, hubby not having a good day. He finaly relized how broke we were when I paid bills and couldn't finish paying them. So I'm off to look in the paper for a better job. Yikes!

I swear we should have never moved.

I saw you make reference to Fred Meyer in a previous post.... is that the jewlery store you are talking about?

If so, thats where we got our wedding rings!

I hear you about the money thing. With the way that the gas and heating costs have gone up this year the budget that we had made before when I quit my job has totally been blown. We are doing okay, but I hate to dip into our savings for our monthly bills. I am thinking about trying to find a part time job to make some extra for us.

Good luck job hunting.

I know what you mean about gas prices and everything else going up. It makes me so mad every time I think about it!

Good Luck in Finding another Job.

Fred Meyer, is almost identical to Meijers. Except one it a west coast and one is a central/east coast thing. Fred Meyer does have a better jewelry selection, but that is about it.

I am familiar with the jewelry STORE also, having been a central girl.

oh lol, I was just talking about a specific jewelry store... not a store like meijers.... lol... we don't have meijers where i live. just wal-mart and k-mart... we also have kohls... but the fred meyer i was talking about is fred meyer jewelry store which is in our mall.... We definitely didn't get our wedding rings at a store like meijers, lol, we paid too much for them... it still makes me sick seeing that receipt... at first i was always so scared id lose them!

Yeah,staying at home isnt paying our bills....Joe got a 30 cent raise,but even still it's nothing compared to these gas prices...it's like you almost cant afford to go to work because of the gas prices!! Good luck looking for a new job!! I hate making choices on what needs to get paid and what can wait until next time...it's a crummy feeling...

Holly, I am right there with you! I haven't decided if I am going to go part time or full time. Full time we might be able to have some weekend fun but then I would miss my kids so much part time would help pay the bills that are not being paid. It is just so hard...

holly76 · #11 May 2nd, 2006, 04:29 PM

I honestly hate paydays cause its gone in a matter of minutes! POOF! GONE! I make sure the internet gets paid first though!

meant2bemommie · #12 May 2nd, 2006, 04:33 PM

I am the same way. it is like what it the point. i don't have money after. It makes me more depressed to pay bills and have nothing left and then we go eat at my moms. LOL - Very sad....

holly76 · #13 May 2nd, 2006, 04:35 PM

Lol @ moms', I was trying to get my mother in law to cook for us but apparently she has to get hay ready for the horses, geesh.

meant2bemommie · #14 May 2nd, 2006, 04:47 PM

I would be lost without my mom: unless I moved to a place we could afford!!!! LOl - I am really trying for Colorado in the next few years...

holly76 · #15 May 2nd, 2006, 04:50 PM

Colorado, wth you going to do there????

#16 May 2nd, 2006, 05:22 PM

Maybe we should all move to CO because in the past week Nicki and Steph have both mentioned moving there and Matt and I have been talking about moving out there for the past year or so... wouldn't that be awesome!!!!! One big party! LOL
