Don't mess with my money

Good morning everyone and Happy St. Patrick's Day. Myself and my fiance will be enjoying the fun of St Patrick's Day from the comfort of our home. I asked my boss if I could have my pay check, keep in mind our paydays fall on the 1st and the 15th, I was told "this is not the time or the place to be asking for your check". In my head I was thinking ok, if you cannot ask for your pay check on pay day then when would be a good time to ask? Should I call while I am at Wal-Mart or the local auto parts store, or should I ask for my check the Friday after next Tuesday, would that be a good time to ask for your check. 
Or was I out of line for asking for my check, on what I thought was pay day?

Amazing

Good afternoon everyone, it just makes me so upset that my fiance has to go to her moms house, not to clean up after her and help her, that is not the issue. It is the 14 year old child that lives there, and has not respect, love or care for her Grandmother that has taken her in because her mother does not want her. Her mother just does not want to take the time with her and teach her how to act or the meaning of responsibility. That is not the Grandmothers roll to raise a child with discipline, issues to begin with. It makes me very upset that this child is continually allowed to behave like this and the mother does nothing about it. She allows this child to walk all over her mom, disrespect her and never follow directions. I understand it is not the child's fault that her mom is worthless, but wow take some responsibility for your children, you were there for the pleasure be there and be a parent, yes it is a hard job. I have two boys and it was a challenging job to raise them, but you just do it and make it through, and enjoy it along the way it is very rewarding and wonderful.

New House

Hello everyone and good morning, I have not been posting daily thoughts, have been busy packing, cleaning, and moving. Getting the new house in order, it is a very nice place. We moved from a two bedroom apartment to a three bedroom two bath house with washer and dryer, two fridges and a yard..

Kmart

It is amazing that Kmart stays open as their cashiers not are properly trained, they over charge for sale items, then argue with you. When you purchase almost 300 dollars worth of stuff and they tell you that you must have your reward card in order to receive the points for your purchase. I have never had to have my rewards card to receive my points. Not to mention that only ONE check out was open, about noon on a Sunday when the weather was in the 40's. Thank you Kmart in LaPorte for such great service and well trained people.

Snow

Hello everyone. We hope that everyone out on the East Coast is ok with all of the snow.. We could sure use some snow around here, NW Indiana. It would be interesting to have 3-4 feet of snow, and I remember how it was in 1978. That would be cool to have that much snow, most everyone would have a couple of days off, well most everyone all those that plow, salt and shovel would have their hands full. We hope that everyone in Massachusetts and everyone else out on the East Coast stays safe.

Being 18

Good afternoon everyone, how are you today? I am sorry I have been slacking on my daily posts, but life has been busy with work and home. Life just seems to get busier and busier as you get older. Remember when you were 18 and life was just fun, you had not many cares in the world, but going to school, seeing your sweetheart, hanging out with friends, and seeing what you can get away with on Friday nights. Possibly seeing who would purchase you some alcohol for fun with friends. 

One question though, how can the U.S. Military ask you to put your butt on the line for your country but not allow you to drink or gamble at a casino? Just saying that is a little bit of a double standard, you can get shot and die defending your country but not legally purchase a can of beer.

It has been snowing all day here in LaPorte and it looks very nice, how is the weather in your area? My finance and I went up to Lake Michigan today and took some pictures. It was cold but very cool to see the lake and the frozen light house.
