Sorry you are having a hard time but when I get down about things like that, I try to count all the things I do have to be grateful for. And I can always find so many things to thank god for and it helps me put things in perspective. |
I mentioned in my post that I know things are bad for others and that is why I'm not as upset as I could be. I do think of others and it does help me put things into perspective. I just needed to vent a bit - I am working 2 jobs and am on a 19 day work stint with no days off. Many days are back to back 6am to 10pm. Sorry, I and this bill is going to affect many others besides myself. I wasn't feeling sorry for myself if that's how it sounded. I'm just exhausted. I think about others' tragedys often and spend most of my time worrying about others.
