Do you ever feel like the bad luck keeps coming?

I just feel like the past 6 months have been hell...

between getting stranded on Killington Mountain in VT during the hurricane.. DD having some type of episode and being hospitalized, random family stuff and health issues with inlaws... Im just sooo tired and done... (Maybe esp because DD had a 104.5 fever all last week and now im sick too)... UGh... I feel like lately it never ends.

Then I feel like crap for having a pity party because things could be so much worse..  So many other people have it worse off than me and I need to look at all the wonderful things I have in my life.. .

I think i need to do something good for someone else... pay it forward type of stuff... maybe do some charity work.... This time of year i am normally upbeat dont know whats up with me...

    Sounds like its been hard.  I feel like this all the time.  Ever since before Asher was born, its been one thing after the other.  I'm tired and I'm really ready for things to turn the other way for us.

    I'm sorry things have been hard.  And yes, i do feel like the bad luck keeps coming sometimes.  I try (really, really hard) to remember that everything can't be good all the time and by weathering the storm it only makes the good times that much better and make me that much stronger.  But it can be really hard to keep that mindset all the time.  I've been having a hard time w/it lately, but i also think its b/c 1 of the issues has been DS' sleep problems causing me to have sleep problems and i just don't function well w/o sleeping right.  You have to find something that will work for you to keep your head above the water and keep you going.  The charity work is a great idea, no matter how you're feeling.  GL!

    I think life goes in cycles. This year started with my dad having double pneumonia, losing his job while recovering, C getting RSV and my grandfather dying (my dad's dad no less) all within 2 wks. DH lost his bonus for 4 mos, transferred to another office with less pay for 3mos, then lost his job completely. We've paid out more than $5k in car repairs in the past 14mos so our savings is shot. And we're hoping DH gets a job this week, but the training is for 6 mandatory months (no time off), which means we'd have to re-book a vacation booked for next May (paid for in cash) that was helping us mentally get through all this. So yeah, 2011 can kiss my arse and 2012 is welcome any day; but I have faith in my family and friends and try to focus on what we do have rather than our struggles. Not easy every day, but just taking it one day at a time and remembering to breathe does help.
