Nope

The question of the week is....are you better off now, then you were four years ago when Obama took office.  I'd like to answer that question with a series of pictures that illustrate how far MY family has come in four years.


Four years ago, my husband was working on the replacement for the Space Shuttle called Constellation.  Once America lost their space program, we had to scramble to find a new path.  We were one of the lucky ones....we found a new career for iKeith.  But wait Mr. President, don't pat yourself on the back yet.  That new job came with a $25,000 pay cut and between that and the rising cost of gas, food and utilities we will likely never be able to afford to move out of our apartment.


  Downsizing from 3000 square feet to 990.



We had an amazing view of the mountains but now we have a bowling alley in our backyard.




Are you better off?

  6. Ugh- so sorry. It really was so stupid of him to cut the space program, so many inventions and technology have come from advances and things discovered because of the space program!

    And those gas prices! Holy cow!! But of course we can't tap any of the gas our country has
