Things have been pretty harsh (financially) for us this past year. It was the hardest time we've had.. ever. And though we've managed to make ends meet, there are days when I still panic that we might not have food on the table. Yes, I am a worry-wart. I don't intend to be, and I know the hubby is almost always stressed by it, but I can't help it. I worry that my kids won't have what they need, when they need it. I worry that there will come a time we would need to ask help from people we don't know, just because we are THAT poor.
Situations have come and gone, but thank God, we have always been able to manage. There was always food on the table, and clothes to wear. I have also learned to be humble and simple. I realized that it's the best way to enjoy what we have for the day, to be happy and be less stressed.
I am a housewife. I used to be a work-at-home mom, but my hubby requested me to just stay at home and take care of the kids. I found this very hard to do, but I did it. I also somehow, enjoy it. I love being with my kids. I love doing stuff that I never had the chance to do when I was working 3 jobs a day. Although sometimes, I still wonder if its the best decision since we don't have savings. What if something happens and we need money? I honestly don't know. As ironic as it sounds, I still need time to think about that.
