I am very sad. My husband and I thought that this would be the house we lived in for the rest of our lives. However long that would be since we both have Lyme.
However, I have lost my job, fighting for SS and have no income. We moved out of our home this weekend and I was able to mentally handle the move. However, everytime someone talks to me about it, I end up crying.
I am really trying hard not to cry because my husband feels like he should be able to pay for everything and he is the hardest working soul I know.
I know no one here can just fix my problem, but I felt like I needed to let it out. I am hoping if I get it out enough I will soon be able to stop crying.
Thanks for the ear!! Shalome

so sorry for whats going on with you. The fact you and your husband are sticking together is as important as anything. Nothing i can say will make that house come back....just focus on getting better and there will always be houses.
Sounds easy an i know its not...hang in there.
Keep the Faith,
Dave

Dear Need Lots of Help,
I can understand how sad that would make you.
Try to focus on the things that you do have, instead of the things you don't have right now.
Make a list of all the positive things in your life and keep reading it.
I admire that you and your husband are strong and sticking together, when times like this could tear people apart.
People that you love and regaining your health can be the focus of your life right now.
You can focus on another house when you are well.
I will pray for you....for strength and healing.

shalome,
i understand even though i have not gone thru what you just did.
losing your house is ANOTHER LOSS and you are grieving this loss as a personal friend you put your heart and soul into over the years you and your beloved hubby made many memories there.
my prayers go to you to work thru these feelings as there is no set time for you to work thru these. go AT YOUR PACE; not how others think you should be reacting ok my friend. best wishes. hugs/kisses

I'm so sorry.
I know how difficult this must be.
Katrina took my house, but that was a random act of nature.
I want you to know though, it is the love that you fill
The place your husband and you dwell in, a real home.
I learned to be grateful to have any roof over my children's head.
It took us a long, long time, and a really hard struggle,
But I am in a house that means more to me because of the struggle.
Sending you prayers of comfort and peace and better days ahead.
Hang in there.
Hugs,
Geneal

Thank you all!! I must have known you were praying for me.
Yesterday afternoon my spirits starting lifting. I did start thinking about the good things and the fact that yes, we do have a roof over our heads. And, yes I do have a beautiful smart daughter and I am doing this with my husband and that we have made it through hard times and we can do it again.
I was worried about my 6 year old, but she didn't skip a beat!! So, I have to try to do the same. Yes, my husband and I put a lot of work into this house, but at least we are still together!
Thanks, Shalome
