I gave away my Dell Laptop today.....

Wow! I didn't intend to go off on a political topic.......

I can clearly see how being on welfare can be a trick bag, but for this gal I think things are different. She was proud to be so fortunate...gifted with all those kids, plus the state helps to take care of them. I don't think she has any inclination of ever standing on her own 2 feet.

I know there are single moms who rely on welfare who have no other options (I know a couple), but they try to keep it to themselves and one just got a job at the local nursing home in housekeeping (not something I would ever want to do) that pays her $8 something an hour. She is looking for childcare now that the state will help her pay for, but that is proving difficult.

I think the girl will do well with the computer and they still have to find a power supply for it. I don't know how it is elsewhere but here the kids have to check the schools website to get some of their homework assignments (at least that is what Stevie tell me)...... then again, maybe he was just trying to sucker me out of my good laptop.......... it worked!
