Even if you only blog once a day or do 1 task in training, you are progressing. I completely understand, Kevin. My children are all teenagers now, but I remember being a single parent and having 3 in diapers. My daughter was 2 1/2 when the twins came. The support I received from family (financially and physically) for about a year and a half and still to this day (in some form or another). It has been a tough road, but- like the old saying goes, "you put one foot in front of the other..."
Have a great day

Kevin, I can see that you are in a difficult time right now.
Whatever situation we find ourselves in at any given point in time, we have to believe that things will turn around and believe me when I say I know how you feel, I have been there.
A friend once told me to write down what I want to happen, goals if you like, and imprint them on your mind so you are in no doubt where you want to be in life. And when you read through them, say to yourself this or something better.
I do wish you well and know that once you have come through this you will be in a better place.
Take care and remember you have friends in this community.

Best wishes and stay safe.

Fun. Too little these days, and understandable. I've always thumbed my nose at adversity. Gotta find a new way to express that feeling, my nose is getting sore.

I dealt and dealing with controversy always,
and it's become a positive thing,
I mean, that I had to change the way
I see controversy, I always find the positive
in it, sometimes it's hard but with goodwill
and peace of mind I see the positive in it!
Example:
I was again late for work and I knew that this time I will risk losing my job, so I was driving a little above the speed limit,
well here we go, it was too late when I see the man in Police uniform with a radar for speed in his hand, stopping me!
yes, I got fined, after 5 to 7 minutes I was on the road again,
and I think about, that I had to work a day and a half at my job
to pay for the FINE!

So now I'm looking at the time and I can still make to work on time, but it's not going to happen because now my car got a flat tire... oh no! Well no matter how hard I did try to explain to my employer
he Fired me.
Now I was really in big trouble,
When I had a job I barely cooked food as I buy made dinners
and 7 minutes in Microwave and is ready, or take ways ready food,
to save now I had to learn how to cook food,
so I become so confident and good at cooking,
that after 6 weeks and a half even if I had no experience,
I applied for kitchen hand position, and got the job!!!
and in no matter of time, I was promoted, Cook's hand!
after 6 Months, the cook left and I been offered the position,
wow!!! 2 years down the road I become the partner of the owner
in the new Reastoraunt that we opened,
and I fall in love with one of our waitress,
and she did fall in love with me:0)
and if you are wondering what's next...?

well we got married and buy off the other partner
and now I'm living the dream!

Moral of the story:
we never know if a controversy it's really negative!

hope you stay safe and well

Have a good day

(sorry my English)

Yeah contrariness is a feature in this life. Chris.
