New Year.....New Beginnings!

I was just sitting here feeling sorry for myself and decided it was time to catch up on my blog. Not that I relate my blog to feeling badly, but I always feel better after I write.

The Bookseller and I are experiencing a dry spell in the financial department. Things are really, really tight right now. The economy is not treating us very well and I am a little bit worried about the outcome. We are behind on some bills, the quarterly taxes are due, we've exhausted our savings and then, to top it off, we discovered a big leaking problem with out water pipes and are having repairs done! Not good!

The Bookseller keeps telling me not to worry, but it is difficult not to worry when I know things are so bleak. I do continue to pray and ask God to help me through this, but I still feel miserable. At least I still have a job and I know I will continue to get a paycheck. That is my one saving grace right now.

Now, I think about the people in Haiti who have been living in tents for over a year and have no end to their misery in sight. Just why am I feeling so badly? I should be thankful for what I have and just quit my whining. Yeah, that's right, suck up your socks and get on with it!

O.K. I feel better now.
