I need a way to make money....

It's sad that I work my tail off 40 hours a week and I feel like I have nothing to show for it. For the company I work for, I actually make pretty decent money. I know there would be some nurses here that would probably get mad if they knew I made almost as much as they do! The truth is though that it's still not enough. I get paid on friday and after all the bills are paid, I will have about $19 left. Someone please tell me how those coupon chicks do it because unless I learn the "extreme couponing" way, I wont be able to buy many groceries with 19 buckaroos. Then you have gas. If I didn't have to take my daughter to school, I could walk to work which I really need to do anyways seeing as my front passenger tire is so bald, I can see the cords under the tread. I'm really waiting for this tire to blow but can I buy a new tire? NO. They cost way more then $19! Try the average 133/tire for my car! GRRRR!!!!

To top all that off, it's my step-son's Birthday and we have no presents for him. My hubby will get his present and send it to him friday but how crappy do we feel right about now. We can't go to NC for his party because again, no tires for the car and the front end sounds like it's gonna fall off, no gas, no money for hotel, no money for food. Sorry kiddo! Then guess what? 2 weeks after Zack's BD is my daughter, Kinzi's BD. Two weeks after that, my step-daughter's BD. And 1 month after that, my other daughter's BD. Looks like these kids are gonna have crappy birthday's all because I don't make enough money to even buy them a cake let alone presents.

Well that is my crappy parent rant today. Maybe I will have an even crappyier couple of days to top this later! Happy Losing everyone. Still love you all!
