Speed Bummps

Have you ever noticed when you feel, sense you're about to come out of a pit that something always happens to throw you back into it, or pick you up and deposit you, without ceremony, into a brand new pit that looks remarkably like the old one? Well, this has happened to me and Hubby this week. All the bills are due, he isn't working, so that means relying on other means to pay the bills, which I have done as of today. Hubby isn't happy about that really. He has gotten quite fond of being the bread-winner of the family and when he isn't, well, he isn't a happy man. Besides this, the sewer line backed up today, so Hubby has a HORRIBLE mess to clean up in the bathroom. AND, someone stole my handicapped parking tag out of our van sometime within the past 36 hours.

Looking at all of this shows me things can be fixed and taken care of, but it is just almost more than people can abide sometimes, ya know? We can easily replace the parking permit/tag thing, we just have to get to the court house to do so. The bills are paid until the bills are due again (which is very close). Hubby is working temp jobs until he finds another permanent job, the problem is, choosing which one is right for him and more advantageous for us.

Yeah, life has a way of throwing speed bumps in your path to slow you down. The trick is to keep moving, keep going forward. Hubby is pretty bummed by it all, and, actually, so am I, but it is up to me to remain positive and keep him going. I'm good at that usually. Hopefully I can continue to do that now.

Speed bumps - just slow down and it'll be OK.
