Life seems backwards if you ask me. During the years when you need the money and the time.... you have a family... your kids need things like clothes and shoes... and doctors appointments - during these years it seems as though you are stretching every inch of your money. Sometimes even copying and pasting. But when you're older and your kids are gone and your life slows down... then you have the time and less bills.
I've found that I want to run away from home way more as an adult than I ever did as a kid! Sure... as an adult you get to pick your own bedtime... eat dessert for breakfast if you want. But the trade off for that leisure part of your grown up world is responsibility. Bills. Child rearing (which is not usually a walk in the park) and making sure everyone has everything they need. Including your adult child also known as your husband ;)
I know God has perfect intentions of EVERYTHING in your life. And I know I am far from the only one who goes through this kind of stress. Which does make me feel better about the whole situation. Adults / parents are just trying to make it from month to month giving their families what they need. They must really mean it when they say to enjoy the little things - because in today's society and prices sky rocketing.... that's all you might get!!
I'm just looking for a goosfraba moment today!
