My purpose here is to let all the families that are in the same position as mine know that they are not alone. There are many of us out there that are dealing with the same types of struggles but most are too ashamed to admit it. It has taken me a while to even be able to let my family know that I am unable to pay my monthly bills on time. I have called myself a failure over and over, thinking I have failed at steady work and finding my career path in life, I have failed at providing my kids with everything they want, they get what they need but it would be nice to buy them that toy they want even though it’s not needed. I have thought to myself that I have failed my husband by not helping him out more with the bills, but most of all I have failed myself by not being where I thought I would be at this stage of my life. Lately it seems like the only thing I succeed at is failure. Then last night my husband reminded me that I’m not a failure because I’m a great mom. That’s exactly what I need to keep telling myself to be able to get out of this rut we are in, maybe by the end of things I won’t feel like such a failure.
