Thank God the journals are working again cuz boy have I had a bad couple of week

So.. it all started out as my boss and his wife being arrested for child abuse.. which I had nothing to do with ( abusing the children, I mean ) but I *did* help with the investigation as far as telling them everything I knew and had saw and even wore a recorder when I was talking to them to get them admitting things on tape.

So, they were arrested and the same day we all lost our jobs ( as to be expected ) BUT, come to find out.. I tried to draw unemployment, and the employment commission wants me to drop out of school to draw a check every week because going to class 8 hours a week ( 2 days of class, 4 hours a class ) is making me unavailable for full time work ( bullshit ) so, I had to file an appeal and have to go to a hearing.. anyway after ALL of that... Come to find out, they reopened the daycare I was working at and decided NOT to hire me back. Why? Dunno. I've been there the longest. Maybe they know I snitched? Not sure. But they are guilty as all hell, I know that much and even if I was offered a position to come back, I wouldn't.

But now, I'm left without a job, no money, bills coming in everyday and my financial aid check is going to be later this time than it is usually and I'm getting so depressed sitting at home everyday but I've no choice because for one, I don't have a daycare anymore, 2 - my daycare assitance from Social Services was cancelled, 3 - I'm lucky to have enough gas money to make it to school those 2 days a week. *sighs*

It's getting difficult but somehow we're managing. I just hope my luck gets better soon.
