Honestly today I'm wallowing in depression since I'm not even able to go to the half-off sale at Goodwill. That is a bad day! When we got our $o.82 in change back last night from the cashier at Wal*Mart, Dave says, "That's it. That's all we've got until Tuesday."Mom's right (always!): Life's rough, you've got to be tough!
Well, the last few months have been pretty rough. I pray no one has to go through what we're going through. We've never ever lived this way in our 11 years of marriage. Never really had deny ourselves or Charity anything. Didn't have to say, "No, we can't afford that." Never had to eat at home so much . . . the worst part! Oh the days, when I went "shopping", like real shopping, for me almost every week! Can't say this is so fun.
But I try to remain on the positive: Charity is in Christian school which is all paid for. At least I get to spend my boring Saturday in my beautiful home, for a minimal mortgage payment. Our credit card debt is nearly nonexistent, expect for those new tires we had to have last month. We are truly blessed!
Dave comments to my misery, "You could shop at Goodwill everyday of your life if our daughter was in public school."
Ouch!
I'm definitely getting tougher!
