New challenges

DJ / 16 Years Ago

Life is always throwing new challenges at you. Kelley's car broke down 1.5 miles from our house on a rainy night. We walked home, got it towed, and are looking at $1800 bill for a broken transmission. Our tenants are going to be 3 weeks late on rent as well. Combine that with working midnight shifts (9pm to 7am) and sleeping through much of the day - that makes daytime errands much more difficult to complete. We are surviving, however, and trying to look at the positive. Kelley has another job interview and my job is getting much easier to deal with.

Just 40 days after I was let go by Liberty Mutual, Kelley was let go by Caterpillar. That led to some dark months
