-And what happened?
−I got “nine”. I wasted a good concern…
And here I am like every Friday thanking @galenkp for the insights offered, I'm obviously ready to write the weekend engagement post!
As usual, there would be a lot to write and talk about all the suggestions, but I chose to reflect a little on the future situation that awaits me and my family and on my concerns.
Like everyone, I too have worries heh heh!
I want to start by saying that it's definitely a good period, in a few months the most beautiful thing in the world will happen to me, life has given me the most beautiful gift ever so, really, I can't complain.
As if that weren't enough, together with the best news of my existence, I've also started working again so, bad things aren't bad.
Certainly the work, currently, is just enough to cover the expenses and, considering that they will soon increase a lot, it is necessary to find further sources of income; I must also say that currently I only work 4 hours a day from Monday to Friday, when it's good I can do those 6/7 hours of overtime a week which helps and, in addition, I have been promised that I will soon be able to do full time .
Although I have to be optimistic and positive, what really worries me is the financial situation.
On the one hand I continue to say that, fortunately, this is my concern; yes, because it means that I have no thoughts about my health and that of my loved ones and, consequently, we are all right; In the same way in terms of relationships and emotionally, in my family, we live in serenity and these, as I said as soon as I started writing, are all luck.
However, I always realize that, economically, that little bit more is missing; as written at the end of the month we get there and, all in all, we don't have to deprive ourselves of anything; it is also true that both my wife and I are quite essential and our expenses are very low, we don't buy clothes or anything else, we rarely go out preferring to live in our little house and its warmth, for us the best thing in life is when we order pizza at home, assuming I don't decide to cook it myself.
We have many things that we bring with us from a past life, this is true, but since we got married we could say that we have really taken a minimalist approach, this happened naturally given our characters but it is also a bit of a need of the moment not having exorbitant economic income.
Money, in my life, has never been a great concern as I have always thought that there is always a way to get it; I've often done multiple jobs at the same time and I'm always up for it; however, I am still worried because I notice that, at least as far as my city is concerned, work is really starting to run short and is increasingly underpaid.
As my grandmother said, the exponential increase in expenses that we will have will be "bellu e benedittu" (translated from the Calabrian "beautiful and blessed") and this is true, given the occasion for which it will happen; the fact remains that the concern of not making it remains.
It's fair to remember that Reny and I are lucky because we have special parents who always give us a hand, however, due to my nature, I've always wanted to stand on my own legs; I accept all the necessary help when necessary but, basically, before reaching that point I do everything to be able to do it myself.
Well, I'll finish now because I've said enough, as you will have understood my main concern is on the financial side and in any case you will also have guessed that I know that we will always find a way to get away with it, for the rest I feel lucky and I live in serenity, both me and my family.
