| Your on this earth for a reason, you said it yourself, God has a purpose for everything...Times are hard right now for you, your husbands gone, your raising your kids without help right now, and you got a new puppy that has been keeping you up at night and now his leg might be broken, you have alot on you, but just take it day from day, it will get better....you have to let the past go and start from today, you have seen God's grace first hand, so just start taking it from there...Your just need to get a good nites sleep and some me time....I will be praying for you....

| Thank you to all of you! I'm so sorry to bother you all with my ramblings. I am getting counciling from my pastor but sometimes I just feel alone. Even in a house full of kids, dogs, birds, fish, and oh yeah don't forget the two garden snails my daughter brought in crying they were cold and their mommy had left them. (they're really tiny) I know God is here for me and with me. I praise him everyday for the life he gives me. Just sometimes I wish it wasn't so hard. I know he never give more than you can handle but I am ready for a break. I know things will get better.

| I hear your frustration... and it sounds like you are over whelmed with the puppy being hurt, your hubby being away, and the kids. When things get tough for me and I want to crawl under a rock, I ask the Lord to take the burden and carry it for me. He can give you a peace that no one else ever could. Your problems won't go away like magic, but he helps you through them, and deal with them, and you are not alone! I'm sorry if I sound preachy, I just want you to remember you can lean on the Lord when your alone... And of course we are all here to listen too! God Bless... </IMG>

| Hi Kitty, I'm pretty sure you said you or hubby were in the military. Well, I surely know where you are coming from being in a place where you don't know anyone and feel like you are all alone. You mentioned your pastor, When we were stationed in Japan for 7 years (can't get much further from family than that) We bacame VERY involved in our church. It helps put you in touch with other people and make friends. With a church family behind you you don't feel so alone. Also gives you people to fall back on, when you feel like you just can't do it anymore they will be there for friendship, meals, help with the kids etc... My other thoughts for you are miltary centered. I havn't used them and don't what branch you are in but they all have family support groups that are there just for this type of reason. Please look them up and go talk to them. Just out of curiosity, if you are miltary why do you need to wait for insurance to take effect? I'm sorry if I have read incorrectly about you being military. If I'm way off on that than at least think about getting more involved in your church (when we were in Japan were there every time the doors were open and was made Japan feel like home.) If you ever want to talk you are more than welcome to PM me. I sure hope you are feeling better soon. Big hugs to you, Kim |

| My husband is in the National Guard. He has another full time job on top of the Guard that he does. He switched jobs recently and had health insurance from his employer. The new empoyers insurance won't take effect until Dec. 1. I don't know why he chooses to have medical insurance through his employer instead of the Guard but that is his decision. I hope this helps explaine it a little better.

| Oh honey, I have an 11 year old who sounds just like yours. He can be the sweetest kid(once in a blue moon) but he honestly has made me cry. The back talking is horrible. I think it's hormones. He calls me mean at least once a day(because he can't have a second can of pop, or play videogames till bedtime or I won't take his side if he hit his brother). I keep trying, that's all you can do. I tell him I'm trying to make him be a good person, that it's my job. Hopefully someday he'll realize it(but I'm thinking it's not going to be this year). He gets good grades and isn't rude outside of the home, just here. Just wanted to share that with you so that you know it's not YOU. Kids can be trying. My husband works a lot, and it's hard to get mad because he works so hard but it feels like I do everything myself. I clean...a lot. I volunteered every Friday for a few years at our local school. I liked it. I'm not a people person and I'm a homebody. It's hard, I know, it's depressing too. I read to pull myself out of it. I like fiction and find it takes my mind off of things. Find a hobby you'll enjoy so that your mind won't worry all the time. It can be something silly like finding a fragrance you might like(sample everything), hunt for the perfect mascara, do puzzles or crosswords, take up a craft. Just remember, everyone feels down and you're not alone.

Donating YT 30K Club Member | I will pray things get easier for you and for the strength the deal with all of this. You sound like a pretty strong person to handle all you have been. Maybe the doctor can give you sample meds for depression. Another thought is exercising it helps reduce stress even a brisk walk every day. Just know we are all here to listen.

| Me too. Day hasnt really even started I have a 2 and 4 yr old. It it very demanding. I also take care of my yorkies which is also very time consuming. SOme days I feel lucky, some days I feel overwhelmed and sooo tired, some days I feel like running down the road screaming! Many times I feel alone, even with company. I have felt so exhausted there have been days I didnt think I could do one more task. I used to think I had to make a big dinner every night, but some days I do the soup and sandwich thing. The house would drive me crazy because I couldnt keep up with everything. I decided the house isnt so important. I have kids so it isnt going to be spotless or picked up all the time. My husband works hard and he will help, but during the day when I feel the most frustration he is gone. I know how hard it can be, just wanted you to know their are many of us out there who feel lonely or overwhelmed sometimes. I dont get much free time either but it is really important to clear your head. Even if it means bundling up the kids and just going for a walk. Just a change in your surroundings can help give you a bit of relief. Glad to see your pup is better and the leg is not broken! |

| Thanks! I think having the pup is helping me. I really enjoy my dogs. I love playing with them and grooming them. Today I think I will give Kitty a bath and total spa treatment. I think she may be feeling a little left out with the new pup and then with it being hurt it did get extra attention. I plan on having a great day even though I am tired and would really love to just go back to bed.lol
