Forgot to add that I would love to visit the Virgin Islands one day. They sound and seem like very beautiful islands. Are they as beautiful as they seem to appear ? What is life down there really like ? Cost of living ? Or are they real "touristy" and overcrowded ? Either way , from what I have seen , I would love to officially test lounge chairs on a beach down there ! LOL
Take care and Happy Easter !

Hello,
I am very sorry that you're having a rough time. I so know where you are coming about where unfairness and all are involved. I see it around here too. My husband and I fall through the cracks so many times it is unreal. I have relatives that live off of the system and I see it as highly unfair. By that I mean , they quit their jobs , lose their jobs etc. Their rent goes from near nothing to negatives. More foodstamps are added in , WIC , you name it. They get allowances , rent reductions and so on. My husband lost his job a week before Christmas , and well did our rent get lowered ? Nope ! If we cannot come up with it , we are homeless pure and simple. We are not eligible for food stamps , yet they can quit job after job and they get them monthly. Not to mention some they sell !! I was a manager at a convenience store here where I live. And I used to see people come in all the time with food stamps driving Durangos , Dodge Rams , (all newer models with price tags of $20 grand and up. Or at least car payments of $300 or so a month. If you ask my personal opinion "welfare" and it's system is very unfair. It creates ways for most to be "Welfare Lifers" , and it taxes the hell out of us poor guys. I honestly feel the welfare system needs overhauled or done away with period. If it cannot be fair to all , it should support none ! What happened to the limits ? I have an aunt that has been in housing getting all sorts of assistance here and there. And has been for 14 years almost. What is up with that ? She recently quit a job. Poof her rent went negative , now she gets assistance with utilities and so on. How pathetic is that ? My husband lost his job , and there was no sense in even applying for anything . As we would have been denied too. Seems as if , if you don't have a bus load full of kids that you can't take care of , a sad sob story too . Or you aren't a schemer , you're out of luck when it comes to a handout from Uncle Sam.. I could go on , but I will end it with this. I wish you all the best in your situation. And hope like everything you get to see the silver lining in this dark cloud that is lingering over your life !

Thanks everyone for voting, commenting, and supporting this wish. Supermom's a hard working mother who could really use a break, and if this wins, it'd give her a break from cooking, get them out of the house, and also give them something to do while they're at home, if they can get the GameCube!

You're welcome, Steph. I'd love for y'all to win and be able to get the GameCube AND some fast food. I know the kids would be thrilled, and it might give you a lil free time while they're occupied ;). Hugs, love ya gf, Lisa (more)
LOL I finally figured out a way to edit the title to add the GameCube. I'm a big networker, and love being able to help more than one at a time, or hooking up needs/wants with those selling them, and it'd be great to help them both out with this one wish! Thanks for voting and commenting! (more)
good luck
yum, i love them
