12 Days Of Thanksgiving

November 21, 9th Day of Thanksgiving: Work

With the economy the way it is, and with so many people losing their jobs, I am very grateful for the work that Jeremy still has. It isn't as much as it used to be, and the pay is about half what it used to be, but it's still work. We are able to heat our home and feed our family and for that I am truly grateful. I heard a quote today that said something like, "You can always look to your right and see somebody who has it better than you...but you can always look to your left and see someone who is worse off than you." Something to think about.

That is so true. We self-employed people really feel the crunch, but I am grateful that at least we can't be laid off, right?

My dad actually has more haircuts than ever because there are guys with nothing to do but get their hair cut. It's such a blessing to have a hsuband provide for his family.
