Good going on the do it yourself projects, dh and I try to do that whenever possible... not just to save money but because we just don't have it to throw around most of the time. Things are going to get even tighter while I'm off work taking care of my mil, we just don't know what's ahead yet... scary financially. My company will let me continue to just pay my insurance as usual ( dh and I have single plans, saves us about $35.00 a week versus family plan since we don't have children).

Thanks for the warm wishes and I pray mil's is out of her pain soon. She is taking both methadone and deladid and it just isn't touching the pain, so unfair when she's been such a good, giving, loving person her whole life.

Anyways, enough of the sad stuff... we will make it through.

I heard on the news tonight Columbus, Ohio is taking in 1000 of the folks from New Orleans out at Rickenbacher Air Force Base where I guess theres a hotel for sevicemen. Our churches and the local community are gathering up everything they might need... clothes, medications, diapers, etc. to take out there.

I also heard Walmart is going to try to give first priority to getting jobs to the folks of New Orleans.

America is a beautiful, generous people and we will get through this tragedy and persevere.

God Bless America and it's people.
