Sorry for the silence of the journal, lets get updated!

Zorra: She's fine now, the surgery wasn't really required after all, if anything it mostly would be to make sure her foot set in the proper direction. It's offset a little bit, but she's back to being a normal kitty. Casts and splints did the job, we just couldn't change it as often as we should since money has been really hard these last few months.

Bad news: Out of internet, we're getting access when I take the time to lug my whole setup over here at least once a week now. No idea when we will get it back, barely keeping power and rent as it is. If it wasn't for food stamps we'd starve too... Cars still crashed and just can't get what we need to fix it. Been borrowing the 2nd vehicle as beat up as it is from the kids parents that I babysit. A 'temp' job I have done for a year as of last month.

A friend will be moving in shortly from a divorce so she can get her feet on the ground, bringing one of her two kids. They'll be living in our living room, while my sister and her room mate may ALSO have to move in if they can't make their bills meet. They're suffering as badly as we are right now, so no one can help anyone. As much as my mom is trying for our continued being stuck in a hole for it.

Good news: I have a job! This Monday I have McDonald's orientation! After a year they once again called me back in, constantly been applying since the mind blowing group interview that I performed so well last time. Just didn't make top three. This time I had to wait a week for a promised third interview, instead as I'm about to give up hope and borrow my sisters net to get more job apps out. (Already had a few out already, not doing one job at a time anymore.) They call the day after I send out the truck load asking me to bring my stuff this monday and my shirt size! So excited! First job that I got on my own, doing so well with my interview skills and resume I've had a year to grow. First time I won't be an independant contractor payed for cents per items. I finally have a chance to make some money, even if I am starting part time. This experience will get me the foothold I need to get the job at a restaurant as I've been wanting. Everywhere I've gone, I may get as far as a 2nd and 3rd interview, but later get informed. Not enough register experience, not enough customer service experience. This will get me what I need to go where I want. This location too seems a good one, maybe I can spend a happy year or more here.
