You make really good points. I always try to look at the positives in things but this year has made that a challenge. Wife is pregnant again and she is about to drive me up the ever loving wall lol.I wouldn't dare make light of any of that, especially losing grandparents and having miscarriages (hardest losses of my life) but...try to look at it this way...
+ Still have your job
+ Going to school to better yourself (did it myself it between babies 2 and 3, now my wife is in NP school)
+ Understand the stress of a new job, just take all the flack in stride and use it to get better so you're the expert down the road and can help someone in that position
+ Speaking as someone who started building in April...I wouldn't recommend building during a pandemic to anyone. Ever.
+ My wife has wrecked both of our vehicles this year.... uuugggghhhh I know. At least everyone was ok (I hope)
+ We'll be paying off my youngest's medical bills from better until eternity....but she's healthy and healed, and hopefully you are too.
Merry Christmas dude. Try to stay positive. I've had to repeat this to myself probably as much as you have. It's as much for me as it is for you.
A 10 puppy litter ? Good luckView attachment 333451
We rescued a stray dog, she rewarded us with pups and no milk, so we bottle raised this bunch.!!
Well, as some of you may know, I’m going through a divorce after 21 years of marriage. We lost a high 6 figure business in 2019 as well so I’ve been trying to rebuild my life in more ways than 1.
So this Christmas is going to be my first without my family unit in place. I’m okay but it’s sucked pretty bad. The emotions have been off the chart. My parents were going to drive I so I’m not alone but today my mom tested positive for the Vid and they won’t be able to come up. So this Christmas, I’ll have my 2 dogs and probably a lunch at Cracker Barrel. That being said, I’m blessed. Despite all the pain, there’s people out there who have it worst. It’s important to keep a positive perspective. I pray this is the best Christmas for all of you and no matter how bad it gets, choose joy.
