I know we normally do this on Thursday but I have something that I want to share.
I was talking to a friend of mine yesterday. She's a single mom with two girls. She lost her job a few weeks ago. She worked for my old firm and they laid off everyone - long story. She has been going on interview after interview and doing a ton of odd jobs to try to make ends meet but she's barely able to keep a roof over her and her girls' heads. Right before she got laid off, she had to declare bankruptcy and now she just found out that her unemployment was denied. I'm sure she can appeal it and eventually get unemployment but that mess takes time. I asked her yesterday if she had any way to make Christmas happen and she said no. She can't even afford to buy her girls' some stocking stuffers. This just breaks my heart. She's a wonderful person and her girls are so awesome.
So today when you're stressed over dumb little stuff (like I am!), just think.. it could be a lot worse.

I've been feeling awful about this since she told me about it yesterday. It just breaks my heart.
Re: Thankful Tuesday...
send me her address too please. I'd love to help her out, that is just a terrible situation.
does she want to be a nanny in a couple of months? haha
