How is the Economy effecting you? Did you get laid off? Do you make less money? Are you having trouble finding a job? Do you have less money you can spend on thing? The Economy is effecting my family. My husband was laid off. And he has been having trouble finding a job. He has been on Unemployment. And we are hoping he passes the Apprentice Exams coming up this March, so he might be able to get a good job with Electrical work or plumbing work.

I totally agree with you. We spend less money. But my husband doesn't even get much. We can't get things that we need right now. But if we remain patient we will get those things in the near future. We are both going to college for great Careers. And I'm really excited about my future :)
