Thanksgiving, Christmas and financial problems! Oh my!

Lets just say, things are not going to be smoothgoing anymore.
Today being the awesome day of my pay day, I was happy to see that i made an extra hundred then last week.  Setting myself at home about ready to prepare my seafood meal for tonight was not as enjoyable as I had expected....
      
       In quick summary my dad worked for Oasis food company awhile back and was laid off. Then he worked for another company for awhile. And he returned back to Oasis after they decided they wanted him back (almost sounds like a bloody break up story). My mom was working for a great well known company named Lokeed Martin, where she helped in the construction of certain arms. (How did she get the job? I really do not know, apparently she was just honest.) Well after her little dilemia she sort of left the company but without then knowing that she was gone. After her return back to Fl she remained unemployed for 4 months. And recently she is now working for a cleaning company (not as much benefits as Lookeed Martin).
And over June I have been employed with sweetbay as a service clerk/ cashier.

    Now getting back to what I was saying. My dad has rescently been laid off again by Oasis, they first offered him a job close by but reducing his pay by $200 after they laid off 6 other managers, then once he got home they told him he was pretty much laid off. So its official that my mom and I are currently the only workers in the household. (shes only making $2 more then me by hour pay) I strongly believe things will get better but it tends to cost a bit of time. So as a result I will have to postpone my trip to my beloved Chi-town and wait another season till I will be able to see its beautifully heavy polluted air, with its overpayed roads and where Construction is an all year season. Also my mother is really aggravated feeling that even my supervisors are taking advantage of me and using my quality work for thier own greed
(something she has always said about my ex girlfriends and expecting her to say also about my future wife)  So in order to cover for my dads bills and stuff I must avoid spending and start using my saved up cash to pay for the bills. And in response to this I only say  *10 sec sigh*   and life goes on. But no matter how tough things seem, or how hard I must push to get through some things I can only end the tough times by my favorite statement that "Life is beautiful". Also I'm going to apply all of this into my scholarship esseys as a way to slowly pay off my $40k college plan =P




ps. But at least I can enjoy my wait time because there is something to look forward to and someone worth chasing.
