That helps.....seriously. It really does!!!

1. This week? I did not get it. I wonder if the states have different

timetables. I do know that the increase will be retroactive to somewhere in February so that will be a little extra toward one bill or another.

4. $25 seems like millions to me right now

But I'd soooo rather have a job.

5. I'm sincerely happy for you!

I wish it were a bit more, but I'm glad for what there is of it all the same.

This is the kind of stimulus I don't mind paying for one bit. :)

7. It motivated me to call 6 places who wish they were hiring but aren't.

11. Good.

$25 can make a big difference.

I tell my kids to save their money when possible: it may be worth something someday.

12. Yup, mine came too.

It means a bag of groceries. Thank you, Mr. President.

13. $25.00

Bush pushed us into the rice and pasta era, invest in groceries wisely and it will go a long way.

14. I get a $250 refundable tax credit next April when I file my income tax return -

if I live that long. I'm a retired federal employee under the Civil Service Retirement System, and because that isn't earned income, I'll get no reduction in the amount of federal tax that's withheld each month.
