After quitting McDonald's back in November and moving to Idaho to be with Lava Dog, a lot has happened. We got an apartment, I finished High School, and as of today I got my first interview for a job since I quit and was hired! This year has started out pretty rough for me and my family so far, but it can only get better if you allow it to. I know sometimes I come off as mean or grumpy, but I'm really bottling up some personal issues that are driving me crazy on the inside. I guess things will get better now for my relationship now that I have a job. Only problem with the whole thing is that I will start work every day when Lava gets home, and by the time I get off he will be in bed because he has to get up early in the morning for work. So... right now that is my main concern, but in time we will get things worked out and I will try for an afternoon position. Got to meet them half way for now, so I'll take whatever hours they give me for now! Another thing concerning me is all my belongings back home in Pennsylvania (clothes, computer, etc.) is not in a good situation right now. My parents are contemplating throwing it away and/or selling them. So I ended up calling and threatening them with the law, because that really is illegal. I even asked me Criminal Justice teacher this.

Money will be flowing into my savings once again and I can now help out with the bills. I feel less of a mooch now and it's making me feel really good. Just glad that I'm still sane... at least I think I am.
