Everyone was writing resumes (sung to Kung Fu Fighter)

Well... what a day what a day.
Since what news I have is highly confidential let me just say time for a new job.
Holy crap manufacturing blows...
Unless it's Harley everyone else believes in moving things away.
Thanks a lot Mr. President.
Ugh.

You know if our cost of living wasn't so damn high, people wouldn't have to make so much and it wouldn't cost so much to make things here and people would have jobs.
Whew... but that would be oh I don't know too easy.
We are all about the buck and what we need and what we have and mine needs to be bigger.
What about people, and values and being nice?
I am child of hippies aren't I?
I always said as long as I was loved I would be happy without money. Unfortunately our society doesn't make that very easy.

Sorry, sorry, sorry. I shouldn't be going all political and crazy on everyone's ass but geez when are we going to get it? Middle class families are being phased out. People I know that make $30,000 a year can't afford to pay their electric bills and still have food and a car.
What is wrong with that?! EVERYTHING

I am feeling the stress and now fear.
I know we will make it no matter what we always do but what about people who can't?
Who is going to take care of them?
Two of my good friends every year no matter how strapped they are do the giving tree at the mall. If I can't stop the chaos at work maybe I can make someone else happy at Christmas.
I am going to do the tree this year too.
My husband will kill me 'cause things are tight but you know what we have. I want someone else to too.
I apologize for my rant.
It happens sometimes when you feel helpless and right now I do more than I ever have.

Caprise... I understand your sentiments. For so long, I was more concerned about what I didn't have than being thankful for what I do have. I am better off than what, 90% of the world? We have more "stuff" but it's not the "stuff." I am truly blessed with a wonderful husband, family and friends. How many people in the world feel the same? Hang in there. New beginnings always follow.
