The kids don't have school today because of the snow. It makes me kind of sad. Melanie still had to work so the kids are stuck home with Ray. I hope he goes out drinking so they aren't stuck with him.

It's been about 3 hours and of course the one day the kids stay home, so does Ray. Men like Ray only do the things they do for a sense of power and reassurance. I'm sick of it. They only need reassurance so they can have it in they're peanut brains that they are above everyone. Idiots.

Since Melanie's not here the kids have to cook and clean for themselves. Not a big deal but they also have the responsibility of  caring for Anna since she's not old enough to use the stove. They also have homework to get done. Ivy is also thinking about getting a job since she's already 16. She started online and started looking at available jobs in her area. She picked out a couple she thought would have good opportunities and put in some applications. She applied as an assistant at a hair salon, a waitress and she applied at an animal shelter.
