Not Doing Any Better Today..At All..
| Wed, 11-01-2006 - 2:19pm |
I'm not doing much better today. I just found out that we don't have the money to last us through the 15th. So I'm not testing for pregnancy until then just because we can't afford it. I just want to cry. I don't like to feel like this, and if I can't afford a friggin pregnancy test how in the hell are we going to afford a baby? I don't understand why all these crappy circumstances have to be played to me all at the sametime. I hate California it's sucking all the money away from us. I hate our military budget we can't afford crap. I hate having to wonder how in the world am I going to make sure my family survives?! We don't need a baby right now, I could just kick myself in the butt over and over for not being more careful. So here I'm sitting crying and freaking out because I don't know what to do or where to turn. The only thing I can ask is to ask God, "WHY?!" My husband keeps telling me that it will be OK. I can't see that it will be OK. I'd have to sign up for WIC...we're not eligible for WIC!! I don't know what to do.

Hi there. Try not to get too far ahead of yourself. You're picturing having to apply for WIC and you're not even sure you're pregnant :) You're just fueling the fire which is very easy to do when we're overwhelmed.
Nothing increase my anxiety like stretching fiances. I too tend to "borrow trouble" when I'm stressing out over money, by worrying about the what ifs.
I agree with Dharma, I know it's hard, but try not to worry, especially when you don't know yet. I'm glad you DH is being supportive.
Hugs,

I am sorry to hear that you are not doing any better.
Finances are a tough issue and a major stressor for a lot of families.
The only advice I can really give you is to try to stay in the moment. Deal with what you know to be a fact and work out things as they come along.
Remember that God never gives you more then you can handle.. easier said then done I know...
Hang in there,
Heather
