Some good news...

My dad made it through the surgery safe and sound! He was breathing on his own last night and today "fingers crossed" he'll be sitting up for a few minutes. I'd like to say thanks to everyone who said a little prayer and sent hugs. They were greatly appreciated. My mom is holding up ok, and the rest of the family has been great.

I'm making out ok taking care of the boys after supper and in the mornings. Thank goodness for good babysitters! My training is going good, although people don"t understand why I'm taking the course, as I won;t be with the company after June, but I'm looking at it as another stepping stone.

I actually have money in the bank right now, so I'll be able to use some towards debt repayment. Being at home makes a difference. Less gas being used, no rent to pay this week and working an extra shift gave me a little boost ( 53.00) to be exact.

I also filed my taxes last week, and I'll be getting a small refund. That will sit in the bank waiting for DD to find a place to live to help with rent and damage deposit.

I am planning on buying some new sneakers this month ( I haven't bought sneakers in three years, so I'll be looking for some deals. I'd like to have two pairs, one a more hiking style and the other more for indoor use.

I'm off to cook breakfast for some boys, and get ready for work. Have a happy Wednesday all.
