I hope everyone has a great thanksgiving, and be sure to pull for the tide this weekend as be embark on a rival team.. the Auburn tigers.. ah i can hardly even say that without making a bad face.. ha, more stories on another day

Getting worse?

When I found out about the whole tuition program going into the crapper, I pondered to myself.... Could things get any worse?? Yep, sure can! Today we had a meeting with the General Manager and he told us that raises are no longer going to happen. Thank GOD, that I recieved my raise last month. But still, what does that mean for the company? He said that the good news, was that we all still had jobs. I really do thank God for my job. I mean dang, to hear about a tire company over seas laying off over 2000 employess. wow, times are tough. I hope the new president pulls us out of this crunch that we are in. On a lighter note, it's offically the week end, and im wicked glad. Work hard all week, and i need some time to relax. Not to mention thanksgiving is next week. Wow, this year has flew by. Im looking forward to going to Gatlinburg with Alicia and her family. Gatlinburg is a great place, but to go with someone that makes you smile everyday, makes things so much better. I just feel extremely privledged to go and to even be asked to go on a trip like that. She sure is amazing. It's basically one of those situations when I find myself thanking God several times a day for such an amazing person. God sure does give me the best gifts ever. Well, it's date night and I need to roll on out. H.I.B.

I sure did get my hopes up...

Well dang, the blogging world has not seen my face in a while. So, i figured that i would give an update on what's going on. Well as some may know I applied for the tuition reimbursment program at work. Everything was set, My boss as well as the general and vice manages approved it and i was good to go for them to pay for my school. My oh My how things can change. I was looking forward to not having to spend megabucks on school. Has anyone checked on how much school is? Pretty pricey if i say so. I have been putting myself through school since my first year, and the debt sure does show. I applied back in august and my bosses told me that it everything was approved and i should be receiving my forms soon. several months later and zero phone calls returned i found myself asking why? Today i called the corp office in Indiana and they told me that the program has been suspended due to the fact that the economy was bad and all that crap. Everyone who is in the program still gets to obtain the money and is granfathered in. how lame right? Yes it is, i thought so. So now im in a panic about all of my school and where to go from here. I do not qualify for any grants or anything so i guess im out of luck. This became a huge disapointment today and i did not know how to handle it, because i had everything figured out. It is times like these when i have to trust in God. I know that things happen for a reason, but dang i wish that i knew why. oh well i guess ill still hang in there like a hair in a biscuit.
