Brokeass.

We are broke.

But we are not broken.

Actually, we are kind of broken. That expression, that cliche, that WHATEVER is fucking stupid. Obviously if you have no money something is broken. Your brain, perhaps?

The job hunt drudges along. I haven't gotten a single call to schedule an interview. I have, however, received a handful of automated rejection emails.

Those fill me with the warm fuzzies.

Christmas is going to blow this year. I wanted to buy Avery this rad play kitchen but it isn't going to happen. Maybe she will get it for her birthday. This year? She'll get diapers and socks. Isn't that what all kids dream of opening up on Christmas morning?

So yeah. We need money. And now I'm done talking about this.

I hate to read this. I don't have words of wisdom, or job contacts to share. Just a word of support and a genuine hope for something better to come your way.

And, should I win the lottery, you're on my list. Kick ass kitchen for the mini rock star - check.

Bummer.

Good news--your little one doesn't know she is missing out on the kitchen and when she does get it, she'll be older and even happier. Hopefully.

I think we've only had 2 Holidays Seasons where we weren't totally broke in the last 10+ years.
The lucky thing for you is that Avery is still really little and you could scour thrift stores, garage sales & craigslist for used stuff and she'll never know the difference.
I hope things start looking up for you, but in the meantime, try not to let yourself feel like the world is crumbling down around you because you will get past this, I swear.

This is horrible to hear, but I agree start scouring craigslist and thrift stores for gifts.
