OK so we all know that the recession is kicking our butts. What are the things that you have been doing since the recession started? Let me tell you I have done it all. I have tried online selling. I have cleaned houses. I have had garage sells. I mean give me a break you have to do anything these days to make it. My poor husband works his tail off to provide and yet it is still not enough. Luckily we only have one child. I cant even imagine the parents who have more than one child. We barely make it and we cant get any help. Oh yea don't get me started on that. We are the ones who can barely get food on the table at times. But according to the government we make too much money to get help. Are you kidding me? Come live a month in my shoes. So you can see what we are going through and what other families are going through. Never did I think I would end up living in this type of situation. But that is how it gets you. When you think you will never end up somewhere that is exactly where you end up. Sad but true. I tried that whole positive thinking. But honestly how positive can you stay when everything is going wrong.
I look in my child's eyes and it saddens me to have to tell him no. It saddens me that he is such a great kid and will do anything to make a little extra change and yet I cant even pay him an allowance because I don't have any extra money.
Then now you have to have the Internet cause that is the only way you can look for a job these days. Most places do not even want to deal with you. Then you have all the places that would have hired you in a heart beat before that will not even give you a second look now.
So tell me how has recession ruined your life?
