Super stressed

It is looking like a ramin month. It would cost us just as much to rebuild the transmission as it will to pay someone else to do it. We are going to call the shop and tell them to come get the truck soon. It is going to take most of the paycheck. Dislike!!!! So yes, I am just a little stressed. We should get the truck back soon but we won't have money for gas. Joy. ******** Now for a sweet Dragon moment. He had a little money set back in savings. He has been trying to save money for lasics eye surgery for me. How sweet is that? My vision is very bad in one eye. Less than 20/200. The other one is fine but that one eye being bad affects so many things. He wants me to see the world the way he does. With depth. Glasses won't work for me. The difference between my eyes is too great. And I struggle with contacts. He is so good to me. ***** That money is gone along with most of the paycheck. Dragon is sad and I am supper stressed. But you know what? Dragon won't be deploying again, the rent is payed, we have food and my family is together. What more could we ask for? ******Our bible lesson for the day. Show kindness to those full of hate. With the verdict in the Martin /Zimmerman trial racial tension are high. The black community is angry and often take that anger out on anyone white. I want my family showing kindness in the face of that anger. A little kindness goes a long way.

    1. The support network we had in the past is no longer there. One of the many ways we are dealing with going civilian. A positive attitude from me keeps the entire family going. A smile works wonders

  2. Hey Rose...Absolutely love your positive outlook! Hopefully, your and your Dragon can get a bit of 'play' time to ease the stress for both of you.

    Sending lots of prayers and positive energy your way.

    Hugs and Blessings,
    Cat

    1. We may not have gas money but we won't be playing payments on a truck we can't drive. Hopefully my migraine will go away soon. I want to play. A little fun will make both of us feel better

  3. Crapinently!!!!! (Of course that is a word. Just come to my house, you'll hear it often :)
    I'm sorry about the money. I very much hate money problems, but they are in abundance. But your attitude is good and that will make such a difference. Like you said, a smile works wonders!!
    Maybe the endorphins from a play time will chase that headache away.
    Wishing you the best. Hang in there...
    Hugs!!!

    1. Dragon was called away for work. An emergency came up. No spanking, no scene., not even sex. Oh well. I slept in his arms so life is still good.

      The wrecker just picked up the truck. It is gone. I miss her already.

      Like my grandmother always said, it will come out in the wash. Don't worry about it. Loved my grandmother some.

  4. rose i am sorry you're stressed and i'm sorry about the eye thing! i don't have terrific vision and get my glasses at Zenni for super cheap. i was just talking to a friend and her son wears ONE contact in the bad eye. i know you said that they don't work for you but maybe something could be done? anyway, i'm sorry. life sucks sometimes and you're right, if you can see the positive things---like you have two hands and two feet and a family who loves you.. what more do you need? lol take care of yourself. stress isn't good for your health.
    hugs,
    m.
