So, I have been under a tremendous amount of stress lately, and I just thought that ya'll should know what's happening in my life right now. Basically, my dad lost his job, just for making one mistake. He's been working there for almost ten years, and this is what he gets. So, he's trying to figure out how to make the money he needs in order to keep this family together. He says that he needs at least $4,000 a month in order to pay for pur house, food, and Dana's medical bills, because she has stage four lung cancer. AT LEAST THAT AMOUNT. Probabaly more. And all the income he gets now is $400 a month from his part-time job. That's barely enough to cover the cost of food for a four person household for two weeks. So, basically we have nothing right now.

   Now, Dad's decided to sell the house. I've lived here for over ten years. We have so many memories here, good and bad. I'm not ready to leave it yet, even though I'm 18 years old.

   And on top of all that, I'm going to be graduating from high school in less than two months, and then going to college. I have so much school work right now that I'm usually up until 3 or 4 in the morning trying to get it all done.

   So, basically, my life is dominated by stress right now. I hardley have any time to myself anymore in which I can just relax and have fun.
