This period of your life was certainly challenging, but you worked together as a family and got it squared away. Don got the job as the contractor, You were able to get the unemployment compensation in spite of that nasty boss.
Connie was indeed a handful wasn't she. Nancy:)

Thank you for the review and comments. It seemed things worked out despite our problems. Yes Connie was a handful.

Comment from thaities, Rebecca V.
Connie is not purposely trying to create trouble, but trouble is her middle name. Some children are built like this.
Noticed a possible typo:
On (one) occasion, you had allowed her to sit in your lap and start the car and steer.

Thank you so much for the review and comments. Yes, Connie did get into a lot of trouble, and it got worse in her teen years. She actually has become the one of my children with the most common sense.

Comment from Sandra Stoner-Mitchell
Oh my, you certainly went through it, Beth, what a lot of worry you had then. I do hope Connie became a little less accident prone?? I'm glad you managed to get unemployment, and that the horrid supervisor didn't get away with stopping you getting the money. That was alwful that they would terminate your employment at that time, but it worked out well in the end. I must do some catching up, Beth. Once my shingles are under control, I should be able to sit or stand at the laptop longer. Well done, on this part, I really enjoyed it. :)) Sandra xxx

I hope you didn't have read it before I got a chance to promote it. My computer when crazy and released it early before I had a chance to read over it or promote it. Then the computer crashed for thirty minutes. I do appreciate the great review.

Never worry about that, Beth. I enjoyed reading that part, and I'm sorry I've missed some. I will go back and catch up. These awful shingles around my waist make it so painful to sit for long. I'm not as slim as I once was so the waist has thickened somewhat! Lol.xxxx

And all this time I thought Don was the interesting child and it ends up being Connie. I do understand. My four boys were always into something. Thank you for sharing this with us.

Thank you so much for reading and for the comments. The computer went nuts and released this before I got a chance to read over it for error or promote. Then it crashed for 30 minutes. I'm having one of those days.

Comment from Ben Colder
All in the game of raising children. U never know what to expect. My second son did the likes wise but it went forward into the front of grocery story. Thank God we both had insurance. My son was not hurt but thought it was humerus until his mother got him home.
Good one Beth.

Thank you Chuck. My computer when crazy and released this before I was ready. I'd not read over it for errors and I hadn't promoted so you didn't get anything for reading, but you still gave me six stars. You made my day. I was ready to chunk this computer.

I stooped buying HP or others. I am completely happy with the one I have now. Hope you well Beth.

What do you have. I'm this one is an older Dell. I'm thinking part of the problem may be an ATT problem. It happens with my phone and TV.
Also FanStory keeps changing picture I put on. Very aggravating.

Lenovo. It is the old I B M bought out from Japan or China . Excellent computer and not expensive.
Fan Story will do that and as you know they are Bias toward a few things and people. But in all they offer a place to express your writings and that's a good thing.

What a year that was. The fire was devastating and then the cars! Your luck just seemed to be seeping away one day at a time.
The good news was Don being able to be the building contractor.

Thank you so much for the five star review. It wasn't supposed to have been released yet. I hadn't had a chance to read over it for errors and I hadn't promoted it or finished adding things. Then my computer crashed for 30 minutes. What a day.

Comment from Mistydawn
What a horrible time for you, for your family. Poor Connie having to live with all the guilt. At least she wasn't hurt. Your story is well-written, interesting, you made the reader have empathy for you. I did find a couple of small things you might want to look at.
pffice,
When I went in for the hearing, I hadn't expected my supervisor to be at there.
I look forward to reading more.
