Allow me to first say, I still cannot believe that today is my mama's 70th and my nephew's 14th birthdays. This year is different, because mama is … Continue reading Still Cannot Believe

Kentucky J-O-k-E Is On Me
During my research, I also found this document, "How Kentucky Missed Out on a $90million Unemployment Upgrade". I find that extremely interesting considering I am only asking for the 26 weeks of pay due to me.
