When The Goin' Gets Tough...

I am currently experiencing a feeling similar to the way I felt back in high school, due to collective financial issues.

I lost my job, so my parents are having to cover some of my expenses. This alone makes me feel guilty in a variety of ways.

But what makes me feel really bad about it is Mom is likely not going to be able to go to Indiana for my cousin's wedding. She's also worried about my dad's ability to drive well, esp. at night. And he's supposed to be officiating!

Like I said, I'm currently experiencing a feeling similar to how I felt in high school:

I am tired of having to ask my parents for money...but for a different reason this time around.

And the angels are backing me up, pushing me into the second part of the phrase..."When the goin' gets tough...the tough get goin'!" The Life Purpose reading I did before coming to the library is proof of it--featuring TWO cards that point me towards what I need to do.

And I am determined to be much less of a burden--hopefully never--to my parents from this point on. Because that's how I feel. I know my dad tries to say I'm not, but I know I am. I can no longer truly depend on my Earthly dad and mom...I'm 37 years old for pete's sake.

It's time to let my Heavenly Mother-Father Source and the angels take over and guide me to where I need to be so my parents don't feel the pinch beyond my dad's funky spending habits. My dad didn't *have to* buy the stand and carrying case for my new keyboard. But he did. All he really had to get was the AC cord and I would have been all set.

This situation is pushing me into where I need to--and want to--go. Sure I would rather go to Ames to work on my blogs and such, just because they're open later than the library is. But...I'll just need to get up a lot earlier so I can spend as much time at the library as I need to. It's the one way I can get work done without spending a ton of money--or having my work interrupted. And I will need to work out some sort of schedule to balance domestic and business tasks, among other things. 

So yeah...that's the long and the short of it.

Now...to the business of getting down to business! :-D
