Do you ever feel

:( Poor Emerald

*hug*

I've felt like that a lot. Don't worry. It will work out okay.
 
I'm sorry you're dealing with all this!
If there's anything I can do to help, pm me.
 
Getting there...been off of work 2 months now.... money getting very tight...I have to sell my house in 2 months or I am in serious trouble.... Hang in there....God will provide!!!!
 
Im a long way away but can I help in anyway?
I am sorry that things are not going well at the
moment. I hope things work out. :)
 
EE, I can totally relate. Just when you think things are bad, they just get worse. *HUGE HUGS* All I can tell you is hang in there. Things always have a way of working things out. :) You're a strong person and I know you'll get through this.
 
EE, I am so very sorry. I think many of us can relate to this one, and oh, how I have rolled my eyes over the child support issue, too. Is there anything you can do with regard to that? Does he pay privately, or through the state? I could really vent a little on my own on this subject, but I digress.
I know that venting changes nothing, and I am not a big fan of public venting, especially when directed at another person here, but in this case, I think you need to vent your pretty little heart out. :) You certainly deserve it, you need to let out your frustrations. If I could sit beside you and hold you while you cry, or watch you as you go off and let it rip, I would gladly do so. I have been in your shoes so many times in my life, and honey, I know what it does to you emotionally. I learned something interesting about myself though, and that is that when times were the most challenging, I became the most creative I have ever been. I can do wicked things with a non~existant budget, and a basic ingredients in the kitchen. :) (I swear, I think I am displaced in time, and should have lived during the depression, I seem to have a flair for living simply and stretching what I have.) :) Let me know if you need some ideas for future reference.
I've been married for almost nine years, and am now separated for the past 9 months. I was a stay at home mom for each of those 9 years. Before that, I was a single parent, and I have lived so many lives. For the most part, I have always lived alone and have taken care of myself. Now that my life has completely changed, I will be working again, and I know in my heart these very hard times are facing me as well. The way I handled it as a single mom with a newborn baby sounds so very simple, but it was not, it was actually the hardest thing of all, but I knew it would overwhelm me and do me in if I did not have this approach. I went one day at a time. At the end of each day, I would lie in my bed and thank God that I made it through another day, and that my little baby boy had no clue that he was born into such adversity. Believe me, there is nothing as compelling and inspiring as a parents love for their children, and with a bit of faith thrown in, you will survive this, and your son (I'm going on memory here, I hope I am correct) will realize what matters most...that your heart is full of love for him, and that you'd give anything for just one more smile from him. I swear, I seldom ate, I lived off my littles boys laughter and those big beautiful smiles, and the little arms wrapped around my neck, and hearing that "I love you, mommy!!!". :) :)
I would love to help you in any manner that I can. The kindness of total strangers all throughout my life has touched my heart deeply, has restored faith in man, and whenever I can give something back, I do so eagerly.
We are here to help eachother, support eachother, and just give a damn. Peoples paths cross for a reason, and EE, I give a damn. It seems many of us give a damn...I witness it over and over again.
Take care, grab a smile, and take a good long look at your pantry and report back to me, I have a bit of a Martha Stewart Wannabe in me, and we might just whip up something amazing. :)

Like everything is going wrong??


Good Morning E E and may I offer you a:rose::rose:

Everyone is telling you it will work out, they are right! It will! You might ask how and if you did I could not qualify that for you but just know that it will work out. It often times seems darkest just before the light again appears but it will, I am very confident of that.

Let me reiterate a wee tale for you, actually a personal experience. I seek no emotional response of any sort because this isn't about me, it is about any and everyone.

In late 2000 I quit a job, filed for divorce and moved to another state primarily because of my Mother's declining health. I found it worse than I expected and within 30 days of my return was faced with placing Mother in a nursing home which I hated but had no choice. During this 9 month period and beginning shortly after my move three of my aunts, Mother's sister passed away. My son's home was completely destroyed by tornado (thank God and I do that they were helping a friend and weren't at home). I had to move out of my house and stay with a friend so my son and his family had some place to stay. My divorce finally went through after much foot dragging. My youngest sister passed away three months later. I was nine months without a paycheck. I thought the world or at least my part of it was about to go to hell. Well, it didn't.

Today my Mother is happy even though in a nursing home. My aunts had lived a long life, they were 93, 96 and 98 years of age. My son and his family are in most respects better off today then they were before (had a birthday party at their new home for one of my grandsons this Saturday). My sister's passing was a blessing in many ways, she had suffered for a long time. I thank God for taking her home. So all is pretty well with everyone including me. My retirement started a few months ago and I also work full time on a job that just dropped in my lap (yeah right....I suspect God's finger prints are all over that one too). So, once again, life is good.......

Vent, cry, shout, get it out! Realize that it will work out. Take care and smile, people love you and so does God.

EE -

Many of us have been where you are, sweetie. Venting is good, so don't be sorry for doing it. Just know that you have friends, acquaintances, and people who care - here and in other areas of your life. Accept their love and support...and cry on their shoulders if you need to (Yes, I am volunteering mine).

It may seem insurmountable right now, but you will get through it, hon. You're in my thoughts and prayers. :)

And shouild I win the CA Lottery on Wednesday, I'll PM you. ;)

Hugs,

Nigel

Hang in there & it will all work out. There is good out there, but it is so much easier to see the bad things around us...
:kiss:

My insurance company is refusing to pay $173 dollar bill. I had a lot of hair fall out at once last fall. I got worried, went to doc, he did bloodwork to make sure nothing was wrong and now the INS says it was cosmetic!!!! Im sorry, but hair falling out in clumps can signal something very worng. Yes it stopped falling out. I never went bald, but sheesh!

Insurance companies determine medical necessity based on the procedure and diagnosis codes billed on the claim by your doctor's office. If your insurance company is denying the claim as cosmetic, then it's because your doctor billed with a diagnosis that's excluded for that reason. Verify this with your doctor and ask them to refile the claim if the diagnosis that is rejecting as cosmetic is incorrect.
 
Oh...EE? I didn't mention it before....but in addition to keeping you in my thoughts and prayers.....I might also mention that you're gorgeous. :)

I hope it's all getting better, hon....or at least easing up a bit.

Hugs,

Nigel

You're welcome. It IS too fuzzy...but I remember when it was sharply in focus. Memory is a good thing.... :D
