For those of you who know me in real life you know that for the most part the last five years of our life have been good years, overshadowed with very miserable things.
Today marks the two year point of the last time my mom really felt good. We were arriving in Hilton Head, and although she was tired, we had a good time. Weeks after we came home the cancer that had spread to her brain started to take over.
Last spring she passed away. I really thought this was to the low point for our family. Things could only get better from there, right?
Mike has known that there was a possibility of his office closing, and has been looking on and off for a job for over a year. What he has been offered he has been over qualified for, and it has not paid at least what he is making now.
The new dilemma is two weeks from yesterday, Mike is officially unemployed. I have to believe that everything will be okay. Unfortunately reality is a much more frightening world that I would rather not be living in.
So pray, chant, light a candle, what ever your choice of bringing on goodness may be for us. I really did not think things could get worse.
(And, thanks for reading my little Saturday morning ode to self pity.)
