Tony's Kinda Rocking at Life

As many of you know I just recently lost my job because I accidentally broke a window. Oh well, they don't need me, I don't need them. Life moves on.

Today I started orientation for a new job selling knives. Next Tuesday I start orientation for another job selling appliances. They both sound promising and I'm hoping it'll help me get back on my feet financially. But that won't be for another few months, see, I owe a lot of money to different people.

Let's add up the totals, shall we?

$899.31 has to go to my former employer who will forever remain nameless. Last July I got a Tuition Reimbursement from them for having fantastic grades. But the catch is, I have to remain an employee there for 12 months otherwise I have to pay every penny back. Well, I was fired, and now they want their money back. They took my entire final paycheck to go towards paying it back. Awesome, huh?

$508.40 needs to go to Oral Surgery Associates because that's the amount that wasn't covered by my health insurance to get my wisdom teeth out.

$400 needs to go to my school by the end of January to pay off last semester. I'm already a couple months behind on that one.

$120 Goes to Rosio because we left two nights earlier and I got refunded the two nights and we're splitting the cost of it and she already paid me for the whole week.

$1300 goes to my loving father who has really supported me through my hard times and has completely understood the difficult time I'm having financially. He wanted his money by Friday. He wanted my to take it out of my 3M stock. I refused. I'd pay him back when I got the money another way.
Now he's telling me that I probably wasn't gonna pay him back in the first place because I'm some sort of crook and to forget about the debt. Oh and I one minor detail, I have 30 days to move out. THANKS CHRIS!

Adding all that up, within the next few months, I have to pay $3227.71.
Now, on top of that we'll throw on a $288 car payment, $400 school payments starting in April. I'd say $100 a month for gas. Maybe $400-$500 in rent.

Should be a fun few months. RIGHT?

Taxes are coming up soon, too. I don't expect to be getting much back. I did claim 9 on a couple of my paychecks. PLUS I've got the stock taxes I'll have to pay.

And don't even tell me "Oh, it'll be alright. You'll get back on your feet soon enough!"
Yes, I know that, you don't have to tell me that.

So click the ads and help me gain a couple cents.
I'm gonna go stand on my corner now and make a few extra bucks.

Night.

It makes me very sad to hear how unsupportive your dad is. I would think of all people, he should be most understanding with all of his financial problems he has had. If you want to come live with me, I won't charge you any rent. It might be a long communt though. Love you! Auntie Debbie

Hi everyone,
This is Aunti Theresa, remember me (Tony's hero)
I have spoken with both Tony and Chris today, and it seems there are a few things that are not clear in regards to what Tony has writin in this blog site.
I don't talk to Chris all that often, but when I do, It is alway's civil and truthful.
I do talk to Tony often, and as you know, he is the apple of my eye!
However, after the conversations I had today, I have asked Tony to "step up to the plate" and tell everyone on this site the WHOLE truth. Seems only half truths came out about this current situation.
The trouble with half truths is, that people create an opinion that isn't necessaraly the right one.
I think it is a very sad thing that this is "tainting" Heathers opinion about her father. Chris is a good guy and is trying hard to work this out with Tony, and I beleave they will!
Tony will be adding comment's to this site later tonight after a meeting with his dad, and hopefully, everyone will have a better idea of what "really" happened!
Everyone needs to remember, there are ALWAY'S two sides to every story, and stop forming opinions until they know BOTH sides.
I love Tony dearly, but in this case, he really needs to "step up to the plate! and has agreed to do so.
All will be fine.
I LOVE YOU TONY!!!!
Aunti Tesa
