Jesus Dave. Im sorry about your house and everything else thats happening to you and Arron.
I have been diagnosed with a form of MS, and am becoming a human pin cushion lately.
Ive been reading everyone elses comments lately and appears were all in for a shit year.
Well, God bless everyone here, no matter what form you think he takes. We all need the prayers of each other right now.
Right now, If I thought dying would take away the pain, I wouldn’t hesitate, but then I would be greedy to those who stand by me.
Sometimes I think that list is getting shorter. No one wants to hear it after awhile.
You ain’t just a woofin DS. Last year sucked, and THIS year ain’t no prize so far either. We should all fasten our safety belts, this is going to be a bumpy ride.
I’m sorry to hear about your health, Damspot.
As far as it being a tough year all around — it has been a tough several years all around. Regardless of the rosey economic pictures this administration has been painting us for the past seven years, they have only been blowing smoke up our collective butts to camouflage the fact that they have been robbing this country blind and giving all the money to their friends.
For the first time during this administration, the “I” word has been trotted out in the media and by economists. For those of us who live in the real world, we have been experiencing inflation for several years, but we’ve been told something different.
“Who Ya Gonna Trust, Me or Your Lyin’ Eyes?”
This has been a great time for the “investor class”. The stock market is making gobs of money for those who trade, but for most of us, we have been just getting by.
When I signed up for credit counseling a couple of weeks ago, I was told that one of the fastest growing “industries” in this country is the credit counseling industry. The lady I’ve been dealing with told me that for the past 24 months, they have seen an increase of about 15 percent of new clients each month over the previous month. She said that right now, she herself is signing on about 1500 new clients each week, and she is one of 25 just in her office.
I am afraid that things are only going to get worse before they get better. We may be on the verge of a full-fledged depression.
