Is anyone else having a BAD week?

I have had one of the worst weeks in quite some time.  Seems others are having a bad week too.  Just wondering what's in the air?  Is it the weather that's got everybody in such an uproar?  I know it can't be Christmas.  That's supposed to be a happy time of year for most, although it has never been a very happy time for me.  I always get the holiday blues.....every single solitary year and this one is no exception.   But it seems like hell has broke loose and people are just going plain out nuts.  Please, let's remember everyone in prayer.....I especially need a few,.....praying I can just make it two more days at work till the weekend.  I just don't know WHAT this world is coming to.  It's all very sad to see people fighting and bickering, harrassing and making other people miserable.  I'm just sick and tired of it.

Loretta, I am so sorry that you are having a hard week.   You will be in my prayers. 

I am with you, I don't get out much but when I do everyone seems to be so angry...This is the hardest Christmas I've had in over 20 yrs. I am not whining so don't take it wrong but this economy has taken its toll on us. we have never been late on our bills in 15 yrs but this month we just don't have it. We have a home and a rental. both mortgages will be paid last minute and I have not bought one thing for Christmas and wont have any money until the 25th. plus only 50.00 for food over the next two weeks...God is going to do a miracle for us I know He will provide because that what is word says. I am not worried or distressed but so many others are in the same boat and they don't know Jesus. This maybe why they are screaming and fussing and fighting. In past years they would put Christmas on visa and them re-fi the house and pay off the cards... well no more of that. Its time we get control of our spending big time... I wasn't much of a spender anyway never had much extra money. my kids are in the 20's and they will have to understand that I love them but I will not charge one single gift... If we don't have it we don't have it. We will have fun and give out hugs and kisses. We also have a very sick sister in law here with us and she is our focus right now. Please pray for Terri we don't know whats wrong really, her WBC is down to 1400 and she is very thin, frail, and weak she cant eat or walk much, she is in big trouble and not sure what to do for her.she has no insurance, home or money, she cant see a doctor or get any meds. if anyone knows of a place that would see her for free or where she can get some meds for free we need to know. We don't have any money to help her. Jesus' finest hour can be in our darkest...
Merry Christmas

I can't say this is one of my worse weeks but this is the first time I've missed Wesley so much. He was such a big fan of Christmas and was full of Christmas spirit. Leo is a wonderful man but Christmas is just another day to him. He would just as soon be working. My old family traditions are down the drain and I'm just feeling a little blue. I won't let my family see this side of me. I would never want them to know how big a loss Wesley left. I'm trying to start new traditions with my grandkids and this is helping but when you've spent over 20 years with a man and then he is gone - it leaves such am emptiness that can't be described. I have a lot of memories that make me smile but I am human and I miss what I had at times. Life goes on, doesn't it? We can either sit and wallow in self pity or we can pull ourselves up and celebrate the new things in our life. I need God's help to do that very thing.

I should delete this because I hate to be negative and I hate to show my weakness to others but you are my friends and you know that I will be ok.

My week has not been all that good either. Seems like there are all kinds of problems with renters, cars, trucks, dogs, students, paper work, clients, and a whole lot of other things.  People are excited about Christmas, but with the economy low, money is low and that creates stress for folks.

Then my guess is that the weather and sun spots are not helping.  When sun spots are active, the weather gets really weird and people experience a lot more stress.  It really is science and it does truely coordinate with our moods and stress levels.  You always see more people in mental health centers when the sun spots are active.  It seems that it has something to do with the amount of radiation that is put into the system....don't get me to lie about this, because I really just know it is thought to be true, and don't understand it.

I've had a pretty tough year--lost my sister in law to ovarian cancer, my dear friend's husband was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer, I lost me job of 12 years....my dream job. 

But I have also been blessed.  I have a new job, and the Lord is looking over me always.  I pray you all feel his presence.....this too shall pass.

God Bless--Kim
