It's Been a VERY Long Time!!
I didn't realize how long it had been since I've been on DailyStrength...since 2012...WOW! So I've been away for a long time and so much has happened...stress induced, crazy 2013 is all I can say and it all started in April when my mother suffered blood clots to her legs (after NUMEROUS attempts to get her to see her doctor and she never did), causing her foot to die and she had to have it amputated from below the knee down...then on the SAME DAY of her surgery, my son was attacked by some kids and got hurt really badly, so I ended up in the emergency room with him at the hospital while mother was in surgery. During the entire time, the job was stressing me about choosing my "priorities" and to them, my mother was not and neither was my son. They just didn't care at all. So while my mom and son are "recovering" my significant other blows out his knee while playing basketball a week later and had to have surgery, but since we weren't married, I couldn't use leave for him. Boy was that stressing for me, then my job feels that I'm investing too much time in my family and long story short, I lost my job. So here we are now, no job, taking care of my mom and my man, thank God my son's back to school and he's doing fine, but we have hardly any income now and everything has just been on this crazy roller coaster...but it's late, so I'll be back later...
