Money Makes the World Go Round....

But what about when it doesn't? What happens when you find yourself starting to suffocate?

When a person has a child, they acknowledge the fact that children are costly. There are so many aspects that make child-rearing expensive...

What happens when that child is one with special needs?

What happens when another surprise baby comes along?

What happens when THAT baby has special needs?

I know! You pull up your big girl panties and get on with it!

I am in the midst of attending college. I go to school online and will eventually work from home. I am also looking at other thins I can do for my family to start pulling in some income. I am considering starting up and at-home Apothecary and possibly Specialty Treats. I need to do something with my life and I think maybe this could be a good step for me. Keith is attending college full-time for Massage Therapy. We are BOTH in college. Probably not the smartest move, but is the move we chose.

As I am writing this, I wonder what the point of this blog could possibly be? It isn't really a rant; as I am actually not angry. It's maybe a bit of a whine? Maybe a whine about the fact I have yet to win the lottery? Have an unknown great-uncle Herman leave me his fortune?

It's truthfully a whine about my lack of control of my financial situation. About my fear of the unknown... where my family will be sitting in a year from now. I am afraid, and because of that, I whine.

I do believe that we can control our own destinies... to a point. I do know that it is up to me to make sure my family is OK... that we can afford all the things my children need. I know I need to squeeze my destiny by the balls and whip my life into shape.
