[QUOTE="PatriotsGirl, post: 657316, member: 15796"] I saw not one but two postings on Facebook today from Joyce Meyer Ministries that specifically talk about what she is going through. I wrote it all down so I can give to her on Friday. One is a prayer for anger that I think is [I]really[/I] going to help her. If she can recite this prayer when she [B]first[/B] gets angry, before reacting, I think it is really going to help her with self-control. The key is stopping and thinking before reacting! As for the financial stress, in reality, we did it to ourselves. When I heard Connor was going to his momma I went and bought a bunch of stuff for him to take that I put on a credit card and it is a credit card that must be paid in full every month. I thought no biggie because I wouldn't be paying for daycare - now it bit me in the butt. I also need tires for my big old Expedition (that I also regret buying now) and that is a big hit that was really stressing me out. BUT, I called Discount Tire this morning and they just happen to be running a rebate special this weekend that drops the price to about half!!! Can I get an AMEN??? :D We will get caught up - I have to be smarter and not go spend happy. I put the cart before the horse as far as him going there and now have to pay the piper - literally. I am also trying to figure out if it is cheaper to eat out or cook at home. Groceries are just getting ridiculous!!! [/QUOTE]
