Luckily we're going up to only 86 or so again today. My trip in to work should be nicer. Since I am working 12-14 hours today and have to leave so early there should be relatively little traffic because it'll be 9am on a Sunday morning. And it's currently cooler out with an even cooler breeze which is great for me in a car without working air conditioning. And I won't be leaving work until 10pm at the earliest so it will be cooler out again. I get to spend the warmest part of the day in A/C at work. But it will be a long, exhausting day. Considering how exhausted I've been getting working just 8 hours.

But I need the money as they are not garnishing $48/week from my paycheck for student loans. I am calling them tomorrow because a) that payment is way, way too high and I need to get it knocked down because we have enough trouble trying to live without losing that money. They also say that I owe them $4,680+ which can't be true. They've taken my tax refund the past two years which is over $2,100 combined. And when I went to school I paid half of the tuition each term and they paid the other half. What I owe them is just a little over what my degree actually cost. And it sucks even more that I am employed with a job on which my degree has no bearing. An associate degree gets you nowhere whatsoever and now I'll never have money to go back to school to make it something better..even if I actually had the time to go back to school.

Thanks to my shift today I have to miss Rob's funeral service but my mom says that she understands. She was released from the clinic and one of her case workers found her an apartment with a roommate in Lansdale which is great. It's costing her a lot but atleast she has a place to live and she's not there all alone. She said that she needs to have all of the canned/boxed foods out of Rob's place so I can go and take as much as will fit in my car. Which will be very helpful as we haven't had money to eat anything but the food that doesn't sell and I write off at the end of the night at work. And it's rough eating that and very, very little else for 2.5 months.

Ugh. Had more stuff to hit but I have to head out for work.
Hope you all have a great day. Atleast I'll be making some money. Most likely not near what I'm worth as a worker. But it will help cover the garnished wages.
Rock on!

that sucks about the wage garnishment. My student loan payments were damn near $250, however, I consolidated. Even after consolidating, I still ower $130 a month... :(

I'm sorry about all that student loan crap. It can be a real hassle.

But making money is good!

I hope you have a better day!

I hate student loans. Mine are about $235 / month and that is consolidated, before they were almost 500.

Sorry you had to miss funeral. And I am glad to here that your mom found a place and she doesn't have to be alone. It is nice of her to give you all the canned and boxed foods...I bet that will help you guys out immensely.

Don't lose hope! I know that there is a brighter future out there for you guys! =)
