If you think you got the Christmas blues, remember the saying, "things could be worse". I also like the one "cheer up things could get worse", so what did I do, I cheered up and things got worse. ha ha ha
As of yesterday I lost my house in court and was given 10 days to find a place to live. Yeah I am another foreclosure statistic, only problem no where to go. I am not writing this looking to get sympathy, just for some who think they have it bad this year. I did find it amusing that I am to be out on the 25th, but since it's Christmas they won't have me removed till the 26th. I guess that should make me feel better in the eyes of the courts.
Even though I am looking at losing everything I ever have worked for, I am thankful for the few things I do have. The first I have my fiance soon to be my wife, have no parents or children. My ship has sailed to have children. My health and all though I am layed off right now, I will return to work sometime in March 09. ( I hope )
I guess to sum this up, people put so much attachment to material objects, The gifts, The money and marketing glitter that this season seems to offer and over look the things that are priceless. The time they can spend with loved ones.
I wish all who read this a safe and happy holiday, and count their blessings.
