Change,
Everyone wants Change. What is change? Is it not today? Is it tomorrow? Things sure have changed since yesterday. What a vauge amorphic thought. Change.
So will my life change because the elections are over? (Thank god, thought those people would never stop calling me pitching their "guy" every night during dinner)
Well, Life went on, work went on, nothing big and earth shattering has happened, (besides my husband being let go at work, but to be fair, that was decided before November 4th).
So what change can I expect? What is there that this presedent will make my life and living situation so much better? I can't see it. But honestly I did not see a much of an improvement with the other guy.
What do we want for change? What do I expect to change? Humm, maybe not paying 22% on 100% market value assesment on my house for property taxes would be nice. Will that happen? You-betcha-your-tookass, don't see that in the change forcast! Will I pay less federal taxes? Uhm, please, don't see that happening either!
What will change? Inflation will continue, price for goods will continue to rise their ever creeping rate, slowly making that measily rase I got this year nothing more than a lunch subsidy. My house value will continue to crash, my 401K will continue to loose money (about 1/3 the value it was a year ago!). That is the change I can count on. Gee, I am feeling just peachy about change.

i was trying to think of a positive comment, like out of difficulty comes opportunity or something cheesy like that...but i got nothing. Lots has changed in my life too, not all of it for the better. Just gotta keep on trucking and hope things get better. I hear you on the house values...our house is worth $60g less than it was six months ago.
ReplyDeleteHere's hoping for some positive change for 2009, like a new baby and new job for the hubby. :-)
