Ageka, since Bobby and I work for ourselves, it's not too bad. This is just an extremely busy season for us. It's nice to be able to pay the bills without feeling sick every time the mortgage is due, though.

If it wasn't for the fact that I'm still suffering some effects from the chemo treatments, I think I'd be fine.

I agree with you 100% about the rat race. I stopped caring about society's opinion a long time ago. Peace and happiness are all that matter to me now. Unfortunately, I have to be able to pay the bills if I want to feel peaceful...

I understand completely
At one time the last year I was working full time ; I was 100 miles from home and the gaspump machine said my bankcard was maxed out at minus 2000 dollars and the attendant refused checques . So this being Belgium I had one unused debit mastercard and I was lucky to find a station that would give me gas on the mastercard .

From there on I got fired two months later and reduced expenses by 42% over a 12 months period struggling all the way with the "this is not done " concept
eg Untill they rearended me a year ago I had a 15 year old car that had not been washed for the last 4 years and we were both to sick to do it and a carwash outside and inside cleaning costs 20$

I managed to hang on to half of my coincollection and next year the government willing I will retire getting free access to my extra legal pension fund

I surely hope that your busy season is profitable to the same extent it is busy


Hmmmm I hope Aboncom does not mind we stopped
negging it; him ; her

I'm so sorry that things have been so rough. I hope this next year will go much better and you'll be able to retire happy and peaceful. At least you were able to hold on to some of your coins.

And, yes, I have many blessings to count - not the least of which is that our profit is in proportion to how busy we are.

Wow, I hope things go better for both of you! It's sad to hear about your health problems, but you both seem to have pretty good attitudes about it.

Now, back to trashing Aboncom!! More, More, More!!
