Just wanted to introduce myself. I've found this site to be very useful in the last couple of weeks; it's come up in the top of my searches when I've been trying to find out information about my new food benefits.
My name's Cai; I'm 22 and working full-time. My beautiful wife has opted to stay at home for the time being with our 6 week old son, Dante. Since I'm currently underemployed at $8.50 an hour, this makes things a little tight for us money-wise. We've been very lucky in that all of the medical costs for Dante's birth were covered (we'll be appearing on Discovery Health next year, and in exchange for us being on camera they paid medical bills plus got us a bunch of gift certs for baby stuff), a friend of ours is renting us a 2 bedroom half-a-duplex for just $450/month, and we just recently bought a car for $1000 that the inspection mechanic tells us should last at least 5 years if we take care of it. And the food benefits make such a huge difference. I pay my taxes just like everybody else, and I'm not too proud to accept help when I need it.
Nice to meet you all, and thanks already for the help I've found here!
