As I was writing this and feeling sorry for myself..down the street a truck hit a car, no one was hurt but it made me stop and be thankful I am not in that situation!
I am trying, really trying to remain positive in a negative world.
Bad things happen to all of us. For an example because of the looming recession, My hours have been cut from approx 20 hours per week to 9 hours per week.
I opened a Canada Savings Bond so money is deducted from every paycheck. Which now that the my hours have been cut, mean less money for me.
The good thing is I live at home and have minimal bills. The bad thing is my father is a seasonal worker, so they do not work when its cold and snowing. And my mom's hours have been cut as well.
So of course as luck would have it, something happened to our furnace today and its not working. So it is very cold inside the house. And why wouldn't it be? the temp today is -20C (-4F)with the windchill. Tonight its going to drop to -30C.(-22F).
I am thankful we are not living in Winnipeg Manitoba where tonight it will be -43C
(-45F).
If the people come to fix it, it could cost hundreds of dollars which we don't have.
I am trying to keep busy as to not focus on our predicament. It is not easy. I am trying to clean my room, I am writing on here. I am going to go through any old receipts, papers etc and recycle stuff. I would like to get up into my attic and clean stuff up there but its way too cold. I am going to get on my knees and pray to God to help us out. I know we all have to get into the valley eventually, right now its an uphill battle and life is stressful.
It won't be like that forever!!!
