Last week of school!

So hopefully this is my last week of school. I have a spanish test and a history test, but after that I'm done. Nanine flies in Thursday night/early Friday. I'm so excited to see her! I think her moving away actually made us more close. I've never stayed close with friends who have moved. I'm so blessed to have Nanine as my best friend. I just hope that Jason can find a job here soon. She said if he gets a promotion he will stay there for 2 years. If not then they will both be looking for jobs here. I just miss her so much, and selfishly want her back. We didn't get to take Preston to the Ranger game because Tim was pulled over. He was driving on a suspended license, and he got ticktes for other things as well. So we will be short on money for some time. We were going to use free movie passes to take him to see Battle for Terra. He was so excited! Then we got there and they said they wouldn't accept the movie passes. His heart was broken and he cried. He kept saying he had never seen the movie before and wanted to see it that day. When you are a kid you only think of the here and now. Things seem so unfair when life doesn't go the way you want it. When you are an adult or at least my age...all I can think of is the future. I want to hurry up and get my degree. I want to start helping people. I want my career to begin. I digress, so we ended up at the library. He loves drawing books. He's a little artist. 

Also back to the Tim getting pulled over. So he had warrents out in Euless for stupid traffic tickets that he had forgotten to get dismissed. He was pulled over and spent the night in jail. When he got out we had to pay $2500 before February. We payed that but because of one of the tickets which was failed to show proof of insurance (which we had, but he didn't have an updated copy of) he has to pay an additional fee to Texas or something I don't know. It's all a big money mess. So now his license is suspended until we pay that fee. I have my license, but I hate driving. I had some things happen around the time I was getting my license. They scared me for life. I don't like having my life and others in my hand. I'm a good driver I think, but just overly cautious. I also am really bad with directions. I get so scared driving that I lose track of where I'm going. Also my car needs inspection and registration. All of this costs money. We would be fine if our tax returns would come in. I think the IRS are screwing us over. I filed mine single and had to have it amended. Then Tim and I filed married and everything was sent off on February 1st.  It is now May and we still have yet to see our returns. They said that Tim didn't turn in one of his W2's, but on the copy they sent back you could clearly see one hidden behind the one in front. All were sent. So now that we faxed another copy it apparently has to go through the process again (which can last up to 8 weeks). We have all these things dependant on that money which we let the government borrow. We held up our end, but where is the money now. Oh that's right, they used it all on companies like GM and AIG which failed to use their own money responsibly. Being an adult sucks! I think Canada might be a little better than God Bless America. Sorry ranting...
