Got It

So it happened, I got my license. I can legally drive by myself in the state of Pennsylvania. Not really that big of an accomplishment in hindsight since I could've had it a year ago, but it still feels good. I drove alone for the first time tonight when I went over to Graz's to play some FIFA. It was relaxing to be alone in the car listening to my music. I can tell I'm going to like driving...which could prove to be a bad thing.

I'll probably have to pay for gas which will be extremely difficult to do without working. I could ask my mom for money for gas but I hate burdening her. I know she doesn't have extra money to spend so I don't want her to have to. My Dad not having a job is really taking a toll on my family. My mom tries to budget money as best she can, but it's hard with both Jenny and I being as active as we are not to spend extra money. Our house assessment going up $170,000 dollars doesn't help things either...

My mom said something awhile ago about having to sell the house if my Dad didn't get a job soon. That makes me sick to my stomach. I grew up in this house and have made so many memories here, losing it would be devastating. I realize though that moving from this house wouldn't erase any memories, rather it would open up a place to make new one but still...I can't imagine calling any other place home.

Whatever happens happens though and I'll survive either way. I just like to
Think my Dad will find a job soon enough and 108 Brickbarn Court will always be home. Even if we move, this house will always be home.

I wish I had more to give you guys tonight, but my overall indifference is mounting and I need to go to bed before I get more upset. Night guys, I love you.
