where's MY easy-button?

August 11th, 2008 Posted in ramblings, rants

Could it be satan that’s behind all our troubles? Or is saying such things just some bullshit cop-out? I don’t know what to believe anymore. Life is just a pain in the ass and nothing I do or say seems to make things right. Will I ever catch a break?

- Our house is the biggest money pit of all time.
- My mom has some deep seeded hatred toward my wife. and visa vera.
- Our kids can get on the wife’s nerves like nobody’s business.
- and when the wife’s unhappy, no one’s happy.
- I have absolutely no money. I’m perpetually broke. I don’t know where it all goes but I’m in the red after every single paycheck.
- the wife wants a divorce but sadly I don’t think we can afford it.

Where oh where is that damn “easy button” to get things back on track???

    Very sorry to hear about your situation going on. I can sympathize though. I live paycheck to paycheck too. Don’t have the MIL problems though…When you find an easy button, could ya pass it along to me too? :)

    I, too, would like that easy button. Paycheck to paycheck is hard, and when one aspect of your life is a struggle, it seems to have a domino affect on every other aspect too. I’m sorry youre in such a dark place right now. Hopefully the sun will come out soon.

    Sigh, I know … wouldn’t that be nice!?

    I love your blog – so real life about the good and bad in life and if it was all good, I wouldn’t be reading (it wouldn’t ring true and would be boring, besides) so… maybe there’s a reason there’s just no easy button? Makes for MUCH better writing!

    Sorry things are hard though. I do hope they get easier for you.

    I LOVED your rants and your description of the dialouge with your wife. I liked that it showed your frustration, but (for women at least, or this one anyway) didn’t villainize your wife completely, showed her as a human dealing with hurt and difficulties and confusion sometimes, as we all try to figure out what we want.

    finally, do i “know” you from 30dc – this blog looks familiar…
