totally flipping out that the government shutdown is going to starve my family….i’ve worked so hard to ‘do it alone’ and the only way we get by is by food stamps. not cash assistance – I pay all my own damn bills but it looks like we’ll have to choose between eating and having heat/water/electricity next month just to get by. if my lousy a** husband would stop being such a lazy loser and get a f****** job I wouldn’t be so scared but getting him to do anything is like trying to stop a tsunami. pointless. oh and to let you know…he changed JUUUST before we got married (like, less than a month)> the entire time we were together before, he had a job, made money, provided, was a stand-up guy who got s*** done. Now that he’s married…well let’s just say i have to leave for work in an hour and a half, and he’s still in bed. I worked an 11 hour shift yesterday and still had to put 2 out of 3 kids to bed and get up with all 3 at 7AM…. because I am a robot who doesn’t need sleep. I love my life but i’m really starting to hate my husband for not giving a S*** about anything that doesn’t directly affect him.
