I'm having trouble with my computer so I'm not posting a lot. Some days it takes up to an hour for the computer to resolve an unresponsive script. It's frustrating but Zach can't find the problem...other than it's 10 years old and can't handle the enormous amount of crap out there in the internet. Can't replace it yet so I'll just have to make do.
I'm going to the knit out at the library on Saturday although my social phobia is causing my stomach to twist in knots and kept me up all night with anxiety. I've got to start pushing myself to get out more. I'm planning on bringing my projects that I've done over the past year: hats, scarves, baby sweaters, baby blankets and a couple of afghans. They accept anything that will keep the community warm. I've got until January to donate. Now that I know where to put my donations I can be more specific about my knitting.
I'll have to make do with the yarn I've already got because the overtime has dried up completely for Tom and with no pay raise this year, his pay is lot less than he was making as foreman. I'm not sure we can make ends meet on his regular pay. I'll have to start canceling things if it looks like the overtime is gone forever. Zach has put in another round of applications but so far, even though all the places are hiring, he's heard nothing. Without references he's limited to fast food.
This doesn't help the stress levels I'm supposed to keep at a minimum. Seriously, I'm not supposed to get stressed out. How the hell can I avoid that? Especially with the hospital visit bill still not showing up yet?
Well, got laundry to do today if I don't get anything else done. And probably a nap and some knitting. And working out a way to incorporate even more frugality into our lives.
