    Just lost my next class because govt. shutdown halted military tuition assistance, so that's about ten percent of my income this year.

    Thank you, and thank you Happystuff. I am going to use this to encourage me to adjust spending accordingly, and this will be where I start, since these paychecks were also going to cover Christmas spending.

    Sorry, Tybee!!! If Congress finally gets its butt in gear, will they reinstate the class?

    Sorry, Tybee. We can only hope things turn around.

    Catherine, I doubt it will happen fast enough because the class is supposed to start on Monday and I just found out about it. They said some classes could possibly reopen next week, but I've already put several hours of work on it that would have to be redone, since they would give me a new shell, and they have also given us a pay cut of about 25%, so I'm hoping that doesn't come up, since the whole thing has an insult added to injury quality due to the pay cut.

    I have definitely been acting like the frog in the pan of boiling water, my bad.

    Thinking of everyone here who is going through all the various manifestations of life's trials and tribulations. The only way through is through...please remember to take care of your daily bodily needs (decent food/rest/sleep). This too shall pass, eventually...

    Wonderful sentiment, SiouzQ. I agree.
