Why does money rule the world??
So my hubby got laid off and was looking for work religiously day in and day out just applying here there and everywhere! A month goes by and after we start getting depressed but not giving up he finally found a job!! Oh btw I have a order from my ob that I have to stay off my feet as much as possible (i have 2 kid's so you can imagine how easy that is right? Lol) any who so the whole month of him not working we blew through all the saved up money we had on rent and food...by all I literally mean all, we were at $0.00 in the account. Well it's been a couple weeks since he started and they only get paid twice a month so we haven't gotten paid yet...can you imagine how hard it is to buy food when you have absolutely no money??? So I've been getting depressed, but I learned that I am pretty resourceful and creative and can come up with good food out of very little (kinda proud of myself for that) well we had to get a couple of food boxes for at least some help...well today I realized that we are down to our last batch of pancakes and some peanut butter...ahhhh....so I needed to vent because it is going to be a few days until we get paid and I was stressed and if I bottle things up lately it ends with me bursting with tears and its just exhausting...well I was sitting on my couch trying to work out a budget for when we do get paid and figure out what I am going to do for the next couple of days...when suddenly I get a knock on my door and when I open it it was all of my sister's and they told me and the girls to get dressed and took us to lunch and then took us shopping.....I cried....I cried like a baby...I can't tell you just how much that means to me...they ALL came down to show us support and love and to let us know they don't judge us for struggling....I'm crying again now because it's just such an amazing thing they did that even though they didn't have to. Sorry I know this was insanely long but I needed to tell someone, I was about to burst! It's amazing when you feel like such a failure and bad parent because you hit a hard time and can't even provide for your family then someone comes along and reminds you that life can throw you some curve balls out of no where and just because you struggle sometimes it does not make you a bad parent....
