Happy Propanakuh
In case you missed my thread on this earlier, I will briefly retell, summarize actually, the Propahukah story:

First, let me set the story-
We are in the process of selling our home here in the country to avoid foreclosure. We are both unemployed and are absolutely broke. The transmission on my truck is dead and so we have noway to get anywhere until the sale closes and we get some (not very much) money.

Our propane tank is empty ... well, that is, it says it is empty, and has been at 0% full since at least the biginning of December. We have been expecting the propane (which we use to cook and for hot water) to go out any second for a month now. The propane guy won't deliver any more unless we get at least $200 worth - which ain't happening because we are broke.

And this is where the Propanakuh miracle comes in: we still have propane!

So, happy Propanukah to you all.

1. I'm so sorry things have been tough..
I sincerely hope things get better for you. :hug:


Add to that: let's hope that Fitzmas/Fitznukah will bring all of us what we so desperately need.

2. Thank you
right now, I am just relishing the fact that we still have propane.

our problem now is that the place should close by Wednesday of this week and we still don't know where we are going.

4. There is a group called Modest Needs you should check out.
Go to their website (can't remember it but I'm sure you can Google it). They provide temporary help to those normally-employed-but-going-through-a-rough-spot people who need just a little boost to get on their feet again. It is a wonderful site full of people wanting to help people.

And Happy Holidays to you, in spite of it all!
