Grandbaby on the way in 5 weeks, The well pump just went out going to cost us a couple grand and I just can't do it anymore. Everything is falling apart on me and I am not sure what or where to go with it all. I know you are suppose to trust in GOD...Its just frustrating trying to shuffle and not getting out of problems. Thanks

Just checking on ya. Hoping today is a better day. Minute by minute and breath. God's gotcha.

Camylow, you and your family will be in my thoughts and prayers, so you all together will overcome all this. Love,Yoriko

Good answers, hang in there, Deanna. Things come apart to be put back together in better ways. As Jerrilyn said, and the others, gather the family together and find solutions as a FAMILY. You're all in it, it's not just up to you alone to get y'all out. I don't want to sound harsh, because I don't know the situation, but if kids are old enough to make babies, they're old enough to get a job at McDonalds and help out. You do them no favors by helping too much. I hope I didn't say that wrong, please don't take offence. You have my hugs & prayers, Marji

I will pray for you, but I learned the hard way NOT to pray for patience.....God just might show you how much you actually have and it may be lots more than you think! Walk for at least 15 minutes EVERY day. That will relieve more stress than you can imagine. Sit your family down and talk to them and tell them calmly how you feel and ask for their help in coming up with some kind of solution to ease the burden. Pray, pray as a family. Look for what is going right. None of these sound easy, but if you make them happen every day, you will see a change around you and in you. You will find a million things to be thankful for. Love and prayer on your behalf.;)

Oh, right on! Don't pray for patience! And the rest of your advice is right on as well. Pray as a family. How I wish I could do that again! Much love, Marji

I will pray for you to have patience but mostly that you would not be anxious about anything. These are stressful times and so many people suffer. Hopefully you can count your blessings for the things you do have. Hugs Angie

Hang in there. Sometimes we can do more than we think. Just get everyone organized and working together. Prayers will be with you.

Deanna, you do have your hands full - but with that many people - one way or the other - you ought to have a way to pull your resources and make it work - years ago - that is what keep families together - pray often - love each other - keep on keeping on - you will get through this and you have my prayers and support - more than anything - do trust in God - you don't know His plans for you - but He does.

I agree, Shirlene, families ought to pull together!! Don't think you have to go it alone, Deanna, EVERYONE there should be in it with you to make it work!! Even if they can only contribute a little bit, they should try. Love, Marji

Take it from one who knows and I mean this sincerely youhave my prayers and wishes for better times, because I have been there and still go on a regukar basis. Mr Murphy(as in murphy's law) know who I am and where I livew even if I try to hide.LOL. Darling don't give up take each day minute by minute sometime that's all you can do. Again God Bless you and your family and my prayers are with you. Remember He doesn't give you more than you can handle(but I think sometime He has me confused with someone else) God Bless

Oh, I'm sorry, but you really made me giggle. Yes, Murphy and I are on a first name basis as well, and I think God didn't get my change of address and is sending me someone else's problems, too! I know it's not funny, but if you don't laugh, you cry. Rather laugh. Thanks for your comment, it did make me smile in spite of it all. Love, Marji
