AH, the DRAMA of life...what a pain in the a**...






Poem Artwork

Seemingly down today,

Not even a trip to the beach,

Could bring me back up,

Just stayed home and slept,

Trying to recover from what ,

Depression has into me crept…

 

We all have days like these,

Today is just my “time of the month,”

Guess I am worried about a leaky pipe,

In my camper & how much it will cost,

To repair, more money that I saved will be lost…

 

So maybe tomorrow I will feel better,

If I can get to sleep tonight, not much am I a go-getter,

Already am I a bill owing debtor,

So spending more money is not something I look forward too,

It really does make me feel quite depressingly blue…

 

                                              …But I’ll survive…

Ed,
I love your outlook...I WILL SURVIVE. I've said that to myself many a day. I love on one check a month and it never makes it till the end of the month so I KNOW how you feel.

Blessings+

The other option is not good. Unanticipated expenses that chew up money you have managed to save and set aside is horribly frustrating. My homeowners insurance company just dumped my butt. I had a claim last year. I am now an insurance leper, but my mortgage company could care less about that. Patrick
