Penny for thought

On another note, I�m getting really fucking impatient with the child care coordinator. I mean, I�m supposed to be getting licensed this week, and she won�t return my phone calls. What a bitch. The other girls that went through training with me all have taken their tests and gone through to the lending office to get their supplies. What the fuck is going on? I�m getting pissed. I�ve put in a lot of time and effort to fill out papers, type up contracts, menus, schedules, clean and organize my entire house, and I�m getting nowhere with this shit. Why do things like this always happen to me? Well, not much else to bitch about right now, guess it�s just a bad day for me to write. Oh, but wait, I am excited about one thing. I invited all three girls that I went through class with over for lunch, and to my suprise and delight they all accepted and are coming! I'm really excited at this new chance to make some more friends. If I do, I might just make it through the next 2 and a half years in Ida"hell" (Idaho). Here's hoping. On a final note, I have a news article I�d like to post. Read on, and maybe we should all learn a lesson from this man and save up our change!
The Associated Press It�s the lowliest coin in the country. But on Tuesday the humble penny added a lot of shine �$14,000 worth � to one man�s bank account. Eugene Sukie has spent decades saving and storing the copper coins in his basement but Tuesday he took his collection to a counting machine at his local grocery store, which recorded more than 1.4 million pennies. One grocery store worker says it was an unbelievable sight, with hundreds of cardboard boxes and thousands of penny rolls, each organized by year. The worker says Sukie was worried that he and his wife are getting older and eventually won�t be able to get the pretty pennies out of their basement.
