In The Same Boat

As with so many others I too am suffering in these no job sad economic times. Everyday is spent looking for work or trying to come up with a solution to being behind on my mortgage payments. In order to avoid having a foreclosure on my not so spotless record I decided to put my house on the market. Today the papers were signed, the sign went in the yard and the listing went on the Internet. Heartbroken? Yes, but I have done all I can do to find employment as have so many and this was the only logical thing to do. Barring a miracle; winning the lottery which I never remember to play or some relative I forgot I had leaving me enough to get out of the mess the deed is done and ten years of hard work have just gone down the drain.
Starting our catering business is the only bright spot at the moment but we have to get jobs to do before any of it matters. Being in the same boat with others is some consolation but too many more climbing on board and this boat will sink.
