Dana (my husband) was told that his contract position is ending on the 30th, the same
time my unemployment benefits will be ending. The kids will be with us
for the week following Christmas, making it tougher on the food budget.
Oh yeah, our food assistance was cut at the end of November. We've
reapplied, but these things take time.
It sucks not having enough
money to spare so that we can get toys for the kids. At least we'll
have food and a roof over our heads, and for that I am thankful.
Hopefully the news will improve and we'll have something more concrete.
Right now I don't know what we'll be doing after the first week of
January.
Update: It turns out that I am still covered under federal unemployment for a few more weeks, although our budget is still seriously strained.
