Havin A Good Day! (For A Change)

Been playin with filters and layers in PSP. I tried Photoshop Elements this week and although I like the setup of it all and "the look" I know where to find everything in PSP because that is what I began with and have been working with for 5 years now? I got a heads up from a friend about a little program or group of filters called Virtual Photographer. I have bought a few features from Michelle Pearson but tend to use the FREE filters from VP more. I am on a B/W kick!!!! Like this picture to the right, I get the best of both worlds (now I am gonna have that song in my head) !

I have had a very bad week and it is FINALLY coming to an end. Money is ALWAYS a problem for me! I recently had my paycheck garnished for a check I wrote (that I didn't even know was out) about 7 years ago when I was married. LONG STORY!Anyway, They have taken almost 400 now and I only have 150 left but the lady at the office said that a lot of the time they will garnish for the entire month (NOVEMBER) and then reimburse me what I am due. That is TOTAL hell right before Christmas!!! Not to mention the fact that I REALLY wanted to make my hotel reservations this month for our trip to Florida in June.

Because this week has been so bad for me, Dean and I have had our problems as well. Well we always have our spats but it has been REALLY bad recently to the point where I have been looking at apartments/houses in the paper. As long as we have been together, I am hoping we can make it work. Money is always the problem and we end up blaming each other for EVERYTHING!We are both to blame but nobody wants to fess up!

On a brighter note....I have received 2 child support checks. Not that I am going to rely on them but hey it was nice to have the 2 and would be AWESOME to get them regularly for a while. It was be STUPENDOUS to get them until June but that is a little out there I spec! Gonna make small goals til then.

Been having my doubts about Disney! I want to go soooooooo bad....more than anything in the world but I am scared to death I won't have the money to go. Dean and I need to sit down this weekend (hopefully without arguement) maybe it needs to be a family meeting and we need to try to cut down on some things and make a plan of savings after Christmas. That is the only way we can do this!!!!!!

When I first got my Disney books, I read them NON-STOP and now I have just let them sit because it is almost depressing. PRAY 4 ME!!! Things have GOT to get better right??????

Off to grab a bite to eat now...starvin marvin!!!!!
