I have steadily been losing the war with risky financial activity barely holding on by a thread now the only way this week was to transfer funds to close family or use monies to pay incoming repair bills for our cars and house repairs immediately so the money could not be spent unwisely
Its a constant battle that takes its toll on sleep and general energy doing everything like exercise walking breathing patterns and volunteering but have to be very switched on all the time
Lets all keep going the right way on the good road to a better life
