As many of you know, I have been a truck inspector for the Indiana State Police for several years. As of January 1, I will no longer have a job. 42 of us have been cut with no chance for return. They offered no reason except that they needed to trim $13 million from the budget. People were not given the chance to retire who had more than 20 years on and yet some with only 2 years got to keep their jobs. I was in the middle with about 9 years total with the department. I am just sick over this as my husband has also been without work since July. I haven't been sleeping, hence this posting at 230 in the morning. I truly fear we may lose our home. I have been on all the job sites putting in resumes and applications from grocery stores to factories. We have decided to try to auction off everything that we honestly can live without. I am even trying to find a home for my horse. We are keeping the chickens as they are a source of food. Anyway, please just pray for us and hope one of finds something soon. Thank you.

| We will pray for you and your family! That's terrible! There's so many things in this world I don't understand. One thing I do know is that there is probably something fantastic waiting for your family around the corner! |

Lora -
I have met you and your wonderful family this past Spring. You are special people to me; just try and relax and God will provide, you will be surprized on how you can get by with less money, its not pleasant at first but you will learn! This has happened to me and my husband also, I am now disabled with no income from me at all (except for selling some things off on ebay).
Thinking and praying for you all!
