Life in the Cheese Drawer

unemployment benefits have been extended to a little over a year, so if nate doesn’t find a job, at least there’s that. *sigh*.
things the house needs that i can’t get because of a cash flow issue:
-water softener (big time)
-new dishwasher
-new fridge
-gutters
-new kitchen faucet (it drips, and is positioned annoyingly)
-downstairs figured out
-deck
i am going to get as much yard stuff this spring as i can. a couple trees and a garden is the least i want to do. a garden at least will be productive and save money in the long run.
and work has slowed down a bit *sigh* *sigh*
