Another Update

Life has been a lot of things right now. We are currently living at the Peay's house in our camping trailer (yes, you may call us trailer trash hehe). Wes is unemployed again...he was having some chest pains while at the last job and was toldthat he should not return to work...so I made him come home. It is very stressful to have your spouse be in the hospital by himself and feel useless. I don't recommend it. So now we are here, he is trying to find a job, but there isn't a lot of ironwork in Utah right now. He went to the hall this morning and was told that he could have a job in a couple weeks...so that is good news. The kids are actually doing pretty well during all this chaos. They love having all their cousins and Grandparents so close. They were very lonely up in Wyoming, so I am happy that they are happy. And they enjoy sleeping in the trailer, it is like everynight is a camping trip LOL!! I feel like I should be freaking out that all our bills are way past due and we have no income...but I actually feel at peace with the situation. No, it is definitely not where I want to be, but we have such great family here to support us. I have learned thru all this that it is ok to ask for help. I never really thought of myself as prideful, but i think that would be the emotion you feel when you are in this situation. Knowing that you need help is not a good feeling, so it is hard to let go of that pride and ask. But we are truly blessed.

have you looked into the Obama house plan? It cuts your house payment in half. Since Wes is out of a job you would qualify. My brother did and he says its awesome. Look it up in Google

Sorry to hear about everything you guys are going through. It will work out though - it always does! & money isn't everything. I think family is way more important (and friends heehee). I will be thinking of you!
