We are all hurting in every way right now. Everything costs so much, just putting gas in the car, if you have one, is painful. You are not alone. We are all feeling this squeeze right now. You did everything you could. You kept the lights on, you paid the rent. You worked your ass off.
This will be a christmas to remember, not because presents were abundant, but because you fought through it, and provided what you could. It's more than enough. If you are alone this Christmas, you are sadly mistaken. You have all of us here. Just speak out, we are family.
It's only a "dark winter" if we make it so.
This year is a tough one. We have two startup businesses that have required large investments and are not yet mature enough to take much income from...risky on my part but that's ok. Family is strong. Sons are fine young men (my 7 year old came home crying this week when he found out his best friend was a "democrat" lol...we worked through it). We are unvaxxed, happy, healthy and good with God. We may not have much extra cash but we have all the pride, love and fight we need to hold the line. Merry Christmas! Big times are ahead.
Awe. Your son's story mad me smile.
My kid (maybe 20 years ago) got after an school detention for asking her liberal nut job teacher if she was a democrat. Lol.
She never went BTW and nothing more happened... we laughed that it might show up on their permanent record, and later ruin any political chances if they ran for office. :)
Love your story!! Obviously my son overhears too much political talk...but my 16 yr old and the younger one are pretty aware of what is going on. The older one actually updates me on cabal hijinks every now and again. Proud parent here!
That's awesome. My grandson was telling a gigantic ridiculous made up story, I let him finish and said "ok, Joe Biden' the look on his face was priceless and then he busted up laughing.
He'll come up with some based responses to stuff and his mom will give me the look. Yeah, that probably came from me.
She's based - the "look" comes from the boarder line inappropriate stuff. 😂. He kills me, he totally gets sarcasm and see inconsistencies everywhere ... his sister doesn't at all. It's fun to be around them.
Our kids are gonna be ok ❤️
