It just seems like I am spinning our wheels and not getting anywhere. All our costs are going up and I'm stressing on where we will be able to find the money. I do want to move away from the snow and unstable weather, I want to find a different line of work and I want hubby to just quit his job, where the new owners treat him and the other workers like they are sh*t. I'm just not in a good frame of mind right now. We probably won't move, I'll probably have to stay at my job - because lets face it - I've been there for almost 12 years and for right now it's secure, but most importantly it allows me to bring home a paycheque but I'm still going to hold out hope, that hubby finds another job. My pity party is happening right now and could very well last until the New Year. To top this off, I'm sure I've gained 20 lbs at least. I have to get a grip, I just can't seem to stop stressing about the money.
I know I will snap out of it. I need to be strong and just persevere - and I know I will, but for today and maybe a few tomorrows I'm going to allow my self to have a pity party. After all the bills have been paid, we had $3.40 left over from our paycheques, so I sent it towards our LOC (Line of Credit) this morning. it's not much, but it's something, and in a small way it did make me feel a little better to see that balance come down a little.
I will try to focus on some positive things in our life right now - "try" being the operative word.
Be positive. You will persevere.
ReplyDeleteThanks Michelle!
ReplyDeleteHang in there. I'm impressed that you sent the three bucks to your LOC, when I'm feeling frustrated I'd probably go for a coffee. Way to keep going even when you're having a bad day.
ReplyDeleteLBC Teacher - Trust me the coffee idea did cross my mind. We have a great coffee/doughnut chain here in Canada called Tim Hortons, I love them - instead I made a cafe mocha at work - it was free.
ReplyDeleteit's hard when there's not much leftover but even the $3.40 helps. hang in there!
