My 2 Beautiful Girls

Here's my 2 girls hamming it up together. This week has been a good one - especially being a STEELER fan :cheer: The Steelers whupped the Ravens in Monday Night Football and beat their rivals (the Browns) today 31-28. My Terrible Towel is definitely going to be classified as the Terrible Pile of Strings by the end of the season.

 

Other than that, the week motored along fairly well. I got us signed up for the budget payment plan with the gas company as well as applied for an energy assistance program through the state. I also checked into housing assistance programs and both programs through the state and county are closed (figures :o ) with no idea as to when they will re-open to accept applications. Financially, we're making ends meet for the first time in a long time - but then cost of living is less than what it was in AZ. There's just not any money for extras or for wish lists. Also this week I applied for the county's medical transport assistance program - of course they will take me somewhere to test me and my disabilities in order to qualify for door-to-door service. My Auntie (who is also disabled and is 100% wheelchair bound) was initially expected to roll herself to the bus stop until her doctor got involved. The fact I can maneuver very short distances will probably go against me but we'll see. There is no way I could safely climb onto or depart a bus, as much as I wish I could.

 

There are things that are definitely out of my control so I must keep my faith.

Dear Donna--I was crushed the Ravens lost to the Steelers (the last time I wrote you, I told you I hoped the Steelers would win unless they were playing the Ravens. Little did I know). Anyway, I thought of you waving your TT during the game. Congratulations.

 

I just don't know what is wrong w/ the Ravens this year. They are not doing well at all. Take Care. LK
