First of all, let me state that this post may be long... It's because I need your advice, and if you don't wish to read then please just don't complain.. I did warn you... My Fiance and I have no money. We don't have jobs either, but we are looking. We are getting married in a year and we need money for the wedding as well as a new bed and to help pay the bills. Neither of us want to seem as if we are backing down my from what we agreed to do with his parents. I know I don't more then anything as I am the future Daughter In Law, I don't like disappointing anyone no how. Right now we've got alot of stress. Stress from friends that don't call me. Stress from another situation with one of his friends, that we'll be going to discuss with him shortly about... My question is, Please tell me how you deal with stress. share a joke with me... give me money ideas... anything you can think of that will either help me alleviate stress or help me save our money more... I am sure alot more people will benefit from this post, so please feel free to elaborate and be general if you must...

I really don't have solutions to your problems. Me and my girlfriend are planning to get married in 2010. But we haven't saved a coin for it. But I think, believing that everything will be all right helps to ease the stress. How do I deal with stress? I write it down, try looking for some solutions. maybe you have a list of solutions so writing it down won't work for you. Well, I have read before that if you cannot do something about a problem at this moment, you should not worry about it. Worry about it when the moment that you can do something about it comes. Don't worry to much. You must enjoy every second of your life with your fiance. I would always like to say: don't worry about things, let things worry about you.

Congratulations On Your Engagement. My Fiance and I are also saving to help his mother and father out as well as take care of a few expenses such as a bed that we need. I like your saying at the bottom "Let Things Worry About You" it reminds me of another saying that is like this " Don't Sweat The Petty Things and Don't Pet The Sweaty Things" Thanks for your response to me, I hope you have a great day!

SomeCowgirl - I hope I haven't mistaken the userid, but I believe you're in my downline at GetRef. :)
Hi SomeCowgirl. Sorry to hear you're having such a difficult time. Sounds like you have alot on your plate. I have a tendency of keeping very busy when I start getting stressed. I start out by cleaning my kitchen, then work thru some of the other housework I have a tendency of putting off. Unfortunately that's not my favorite chore but when I need to work out the stress it's a better way of getting some strenuous exercise than it is to workout in a gym or something. While doing housework may not appeal to you, getting in some strenuous excercise seems to help get things circulating again. Alot of times, not concentrating on the source of the stress is helpful in reducing it and solutions seem to come to us a little easier. I don't have any jokes to share with you today but I can talk about making a little extra money to help with your future expenses if you're interested. I thought your name looked familiar when I spotted your discussion tonight so I checked to confirm I had remembered the name right. You signed up under me in GetRef, which is a free downline builder for a large number of get paid sites. I noticed you don't seem to be active there and I wanted to offer my help if you need to know how to get started. I've been pretty happy with the referrals I've gotten for my programs there and it's easy to earn referrals for whichever site you want a downline in. I apologized for not contacting you before now but member messages are only available from the GetRef site and I saw you haven't logged in for awhile. I'm glad I saw your user name here on MyLot tonight and hope you can still work together to build you a few downlines to make some extra money by wedding time. I took a peak at your profile page and saw that you haven't entered your website. Which sites are you with, that you were looking for referrals for? GetRef has over 2000 free programs in the list so I'm sure it can help.

Whenever you're ready and have the time, I'll be happy to help. I sent you a friends request so we could communicate thru messages here at MyLot. Just ok the request and you can message me anytime you have questions or need help. Again, I'm not sure which programs you're participating in, but if it's on the list of sites in my profile, I can probably answer your questions.

Thank you so much for your help. I'll look at the friend request and be adding you shortly. I also will be going through the sites that I do participate in and adding them to my profile. I've looked at your profile and I believe I may have signed up under you for one other thing but am not sure. Thanks again for your help!
