Having been married to someone that was seasonally employed, I have a love hate relationship with fall and winter. We were always broke and I usually found myself going to get WIC, Focus Hope and standing in line at The Goodfellows to get Christmas presents for the kids. The same person that encouraged me to get these things now rants along with Rush Limbaugh about the "welfare scum".
Should I feel bad about getting help with food while I was unemployed? I will still be purchasing from Angelfood Network now that I have been blessed with employment.
I still get a little twinge of fear every time the kids are getting ready for school. I know I'll be able to buy my son clothes and school supplies this year. I make enough money to afford my basic expenses and I will even have a bit left over.
Old habits and fears do die hard, but I feel truly blessed.
