Hey friends, you ever felt like constantly you must make sacrifice in life. At the end of the month you must rob Peter in order to pay Paul? And at the end of the day you've given so much of yourself to others that you hardly have anything leftover for yourself. If so please tell me about it. I feel this way too at times.
And I think sooner or later, something has got to give. Lord when will my ship come in I find myself thinking this thought quite a lot? Have you ever felt this way?

With this kind of economy - yes, I feel like I have to make many sacrifices just to make ends meet. And sometimes they don't meet, not even close. 
Thank God for my significant other - who has been working his tail off just to help me make ends meet. At this point, I've sacrificed a lot of sleep to "work" online. I haven't seen much fruit from that labor but hopefully this coming month will be lighter.
Just take it one step at a time, I'm sure "help" is coming soon. God bless to you, miss CityChic. Hang in there!

Sacrifices........
Hello khayshenz, thanks a lot for your kind words of encouragement. For me it seems like I have been making some kind of sacrifices almost all of my life. But I don't really feel too bad about it because it seems that sacrifice has become a great part of who I am. One day I look forward to reaping the fruit of my labor. I'm lucky to have a sig. other also that helps out financially so I really can't complain too much:). Anyhow prayer helps to see me through. You hang in there too my friend. Peace out.
Happy mylot!
Happy mylot!

I think every one have to make some sacrifices in life like i have to go without things so that my family can have things.I also have children so i had to stop work as to look after them and am unable to just pop out when ever i want as there are not anyone who could or would want to look after my youngest child.I feel like this all the time more now than i used to as i see lots of people having the money and the freedom i so badly want and can not have.

Yes, it has been rough on everyone in this country.. It does not matter who you are we have been affected by this recession. Personally I have seen a lot of houses that have been put of for sale, families getting kick to the streets.. People losing their jobs, and/or major cut in pay or hours.. Then we have a government that is putting us deeper into debt, instead of creating new jobs, putting stricter laws against taking jobs over seas, and having foreigners taking our jobs away.. Bills, Bills, and more Bills.. It seems that you can never get out of debt.. It really stinks!! The only thing that I really can do about it is to have faith that one day soon the economy will pick up. P.S. My other half suggests to look into other debt solutions and says one of the best is the system taught by Dave Ramsey...check it out and you may find a solution to getting a better handle on your finances.
