It's been a tough couple of months. Things haven't been going well for DH at his job that he started back in May. This month we've been struggling with back to school expenses, unexpected vet bills, higher gas prices,etc etc. Well, Friday he was laid off. The only good thing is he will be paid through Sept 15th. I don't know what we are going to do. He has been looking for another job since he started this one in May. We've been considering selling our home but are unsure of the market in our area. I am praying constantly. (I think that is the only thing that has kept me from going bonkers) It's really tough on our DD. She is almost ten and wise beyond her years. I don't want her worrying about our finances or DH job's situation. Anyone else going through or been through the same thing? What keeps you going?

Thanks for letting me spill my guts. I'm off to clean DD's room, again.

OK aslong as your not doing the regular daily cleaning...

Hey can I email you my address? My house needs a good clean out floor to ceiling.

You have a really good attitude about it already, even if it's enough to scare anyone! Just knowing that it's all part of a bigger plan is great, unfortuantely, nobody saw fit to send you the memo about said plan, lol. I know for me, it's not that knowledge that makes me tie myself in knots, it's the fact that I want to read the end of the book, so to speak. I don't WANT to be be patient and find out in good time. I want to know RIGHT NOW!

I clean when stressed too. Somehow, clearing the unwanted/broken/unneeded stuff out leaves an opening for wanted/awesome/hoped for stuff to come in. Go figure-it seems to work OK.

Hang in there-and know that we'll all think good thoughts your way!
