Update

Well, here is the latest. The car doesn't have a broken timing belt. It has thrown a rod which means a new motor. So! We will see what works out. We only had 5 more months to pay on this one and it would be paid off. We cannot pay on 2 cars; financially it just doesn't seem possible. A motor is at least $1,000 which we don't have right now. So we are driving a friend's car for a while, until we can see what we can arrange.

Jr. is still coughing and blowing blowing blowing his nose! Missie is now getting it. Preston has been having insomnia despite the fact I give him meds. to help him sleep. Have got to make him another appt. with his psychiatrist who we have to pay out of our pocket. Will it ever end? Needing more money than we have? I know a lot of people face this and we are not alone in it. Jr. has not had a raise in 3 years! The company sold and now they are saying it is not doing as well as it should, despite the fact he always has lots of work. The company he worked for before this, actually shut their doors and closed down or he would still be there.

So that is the latest. It is pouring rain today. I know Jr. and Missie cannot go out, and it is very hard to take Preston when it is pouring. We had a wonderful New Year's eve service last year.

I wish you all a happy New Year!
