Christmas this year was not something I was looking forward to. I lost my job last February and have been working since March at a job that I literally hate. I live with it because it's only 2 miles from home and I'm able to be there for my family. When I lost the job and got the new one my salary was cut $2,000.00 a month. This has been very hard the last couple of months trying to make ends meet. We had talked with our kids last weekend and told them that basically we would not be able to have Christmas this year. It was so depressing. This is my favorite time of the year and I love all the decorations and everything. My house is loaded with everything Christmas that you can imagine. I haven't even put up my decorations yet.

To make a depressing story happy --- my husband called a while ago -- he got a Christmas Bonus already!!! Not just a few dollars --- $2,500.00!!! I'm so excited. The bills have all been paid and we have more than enough left over to buy Christmas for our kids. I just wanted to share my good news!!!
