Grinch!

My health is still deteriorating fast. Lying in bed sick is not the ideal way to spend Christmas eve. And being alone is making it sad! Grinch must have stolen Christmas!

Earlier today, I had to cancel my attendance to my former student’s wedding dinner which is happening this weekend. This is very unfortunate because I was looking forward to it. However, my condition doesn’t look too promising. Not only I will look terrible at the event, I feel horrible and uneasy too. I am just too uncomfortable to be sitting still or appear in public for long.

To everyone out there who is in celebration tonight, I wish you a blessed Merry Christmas. Say a little prayer for me to regain my health, my family and my life. All I want for Christmas is to have my decent life back in order to live happily and healthily with the love of my life and family. No more suffering and trauma, I ask from you, my Lord!

So much to buy. So little money.

One more week to go, and I shall have the keys to the rental house. But even so, I won’t be able to move in yet. I will need to furnish the house with the basic necessity first.

I am practically starting over a life! Building a household from scratch. That takes a lot of effort and money. Especially money. I don’t even have a teaspoon or a bed! No ironing board or curtain’s rod. From mirror to a study are the basic needs.

So much to buy. So little money. Xmas is here. And so is New Year! Everything involves money.

How should I go about with life, being unemployed and in need of money?
