Our family has made leaps and bounds since my last posting.  I am so happy for that fact.  My husband has just recently been offered a promotion at his job and this has forced us to face the reality that we will have to relocate our family.  It has made us realize even more we have no savings whatsoever to even begin to move.  Kyle starts work on the 9th of June in his new location.  We have to move our family before the new school year starts and as long as we have to pay for two households while he is working in the new area we can't save anything for the move.  If anyone knows of a way to help with this move, let me know.  We would love to move as soon as possible.  We just need to find a place in Eugene, Or. area and somehow afford to move the two hours from Bend, Or. to Eugene.  If anyone knows of a house in Eugene that is good for a family of 5, let me know.  We can't afford anything more than $1000 per month and need at lease 3 bedrooms and 2 bath.  Thanks everyone.

With this Holiday Season fast upon us I find my budget stretched to the very limit.  I am looking for any assistance in finishing getting Christmas gifts for my family.  I am not looking for exuberant amounts, heck a $50 Wal-Mart card would be a miracle.  If there is anyone out there who could help with this matter it would be greatly apreciated.  Thank you so much.

I am 37 years old.  I have been at home with my kids for the past 7 years due to the fact that I am physically unable to hold a job.  I originally stayed home when my youngest daughter was born, because we could not afford day care.  I was working only to pay daycare and we just couldn't justify the time away from the kids just to pay for daycare.  About two and a half years ago I came through ovarian cancer and ever since then my health has been in a steady decline.  I have RA and Osteo Arthritis throughout my body and it makes it very difficult for me to hold full time employment.  I know my husband does all that he can to provide for our family and I love him very much for that.  It has been hard our family for a long time and I would just like the ability to breath for a bit.
