Well, the good news is, my big cheque came yesterday...paid the two months rent I owe, the electric bill (Natl. Grid put me back on the budget plan---to the tune of thrirty dollars more to pay a month, then I used to pay), and even have enough left over to put aside for a rainy day--plus, I finally was able to get my new walking boots off of layaway (the farm store lets you make payments on merchandise for 2 months). I've not had new boots in 4 years, and the boots I bought used in '06 are just about worn out. I still owed twenty five dollars, so I paid it off and now my feet are happy again, ha-ha.

Oh, and did I mention that I now have plenty of food to eat, and, I'm no longer overdrawn at the bank?

Next few months MAY see me back online at home, as well...we'll see.
