VENT

Last night was good. We are very conservative so Chris and I were satisfied with the outcome of the local and national elections. We wish we could have taken majority in the Senate too but we are happy with the accomplishments.

However, having said that....it was not a good morning. We've racked up hundreds of dollars for Chris's car this week (had to get an inspection)...which was fine! We were planning on repairing some things but we weren't expecting to have any other issues. Well, of course my D&C/pregnancy costs bill came recently...and also, here's the real treat. The gas company found a leak in our yard so they turned off the gas and now we need to call a plumber to repair it. Grr.....I am so frustrated. We are going to be freezing for a little bit and also more money to spend. I'm waiting for Chris to tell me whether or not our home warranty will cover the putting in of a new line. I'm hoping it will...otherwise, we'll be responsible for the entire cost.

Anyhow, the purpose of this post is just to vent. It probably sounds stupid but I have a hard enough time with just finally trying to process through Samantha's loss and readjusting to life and the holidays coming up and now this is a major stressor too. It makes me upset all over again because I'm stressed.

I'm trying to trust God...it's hard.
