I know you are not exaggerating, not in the least. I thought ‘08 was bad (actually I know it was) but I am not looking forward to ‘09 that much at all.
I have an extremely bleak outlook for my personal situation and I don’t see much prospect for my outlook to be any less bleak for our nation as a whole.
I realize that is not a great way to start out the new year, but it is what it is.
My sentiments are the same and our sitution is not so great ... . I just don’t think about it ... I take one day at a time ... otherwise I’ll go NUTS!
