BINGO

What happens when
you're heading out the door to work
and someone tells you
the finances are in trouble?

Bingo!

You stress out at work and snap at kids.


I even grouched at a co-worker...
...had to apologize in order to soothe them and me.
...........

I leave the heat at 60 degrees during the day and 52 at night.
Turn off the lights as I leave a room.
Don't drive anywhere except work.

I've quit fooling with the auctions for

horse radios & English mottoware china.

I'm more conservative at the grocery store.
Don't eat out.
I've pulled in the spending.
I'm miserly and self-denying
.............
And I've prayed for answers and hope.

But there is more letting go to do.
How come there is always more letting go?

I am sick of worrying.
I don't know when this "down turn" will settle.
I don't know when the planet will settle it's own downturn.

Does it never end?
..........
The waiting is killing me.
