From Bad to Better...

Well this past week was lots of fun. I had to postpone the lawyers trip from Wednesday to Friday. I couldn't find two of my pay stubs from last year and being a payroll week the payroll clerk at work decided to mail the dang things with our paychecks. But everything started looking much better for me on Friday. The lawyer is a very nice lady who is very helpful. I sat with her for about 30 minutes going over my financial stuff and found that I can file Chapter 7 (which means my debt goes away, except for the car note and one of my credit cards that I can still afford to pay, if they accept my reaffirmation). I go back on Wednesday to meet with her and file all the necessary paperwork and pay the $1500 fee (thankfully my mom's giving me that). The downside is that I can have no money in any banks at the time of the filing or they will take it. Not a really big problem, my bank was starting to frustrate me anyways. The one bank that I'm allowed to leave money in is the Credit Union that holds the lien on my car. You have to have a savings account with them and there have to be funds in the account.

Last week I also finished up my Needle Guardian Needle Book.

And here's Norbert (yes I was watching Harry Potter while stitching him)...

The inside pages are Blue and Pink Camo felt.

I also backed the stitching with a piece of tan ornate felt.

I'm very pleased with the way it came out and it was well worth the effort.

Well gotta sign off for now...
