Who's Kidding Who? STIMULUS?
"Spent my stimulus on gasoline and credit card debt...didn't get the amount I was supposed to (how do they calculate it?) The picture I sent is just something I took that reflects my mood. Gloomy."

Simulus on medical and gas. We got $600.00 which won't even make up for the increase in gas cost.

I understand completely your mood. It took 80 dollars to fill my tank today, and the driving I do, to hospitals and doctors for my daughter, who is on a transplant list, is not negotiable.

Just remember as we approach the Great Depression of 2011 that it is as much an attitude as a statement of the economic situation. Yes, it is going to get hard to live and you will need to cut way back to survive. If you are prepared and understand the train that is ready to run us over, it will be much easier on you emotionally.
