Today is not a good day for me and I just want to clear my head to an anonymous "person" that perhaps will listen.
I am not promoting anything or asking for a hand in marriage. I am not looking for a way to gain entry into North America. I am not asking for money. I am not being a jerk.
All I want is to have a shoulder to lean on and just let me vent my feeling. I hope you do not mind me doing this. I hope you will bear with me as I "unload" all that is on my mind and my wife's mind because it is just getting to be overwhelming.
We are a couple in our late 50's. We have two grown daughters living away from home with their own families. My wife and I live a wonderful lifestyle thanks to great careers and income from a number of sources.
Our daughters on the other hand are not as fortunate and my wife and I are working at assisting them financially and emotionally as they try to cope and raise their small children.
We have three of the most adorable granddaughters who we spoil rotten and would not compromise their health or wellbeing for anything.
Lately the girls and their husbands are finding things tough with the economy as it is .................NO PLEASE do not think this is leading to a plee for money because it is DEFINITELY NOT.
As I started to say the kids and their spouses are starting to find things tough and are starting to rely on my wife and I more and more. We are doing all that we can but I confess it is starting to become quite tough to "run" three families between us and them.
Finances are okay because as I said we are financially secure but emotionally it is starting to drain us. My wife and I have daily mood swings going from excitement one day to depression the next.
I have joined a number of online "groups" such as this one and Elygantthings.ning.com which are proving to be a wonderful assistance. I do not have a long list of friends (I have a ton of acquaintenances) so I rely on my online friends to listen to me ramble and babble.
I have a website www.fun2work4.ca which is a secondary source of income and is a blessing because it keeps my mind active as I try to remain positive.
I guess all I want is someone today to sit and listen because the weather is horrible outside, I am home from work sick, and not feeling the best.
Is anybody out there today? Anybody especially, that lives in Canada?
Give me a shout if you happen to be reading this and just say hello.
I am not suicidal but just not feeling myself today and need a shoulder to lean on.

Hello to all fellow members here.
I just joined the site yesterday and it is taking me some time to check everything out but so far I am having a blast.
To give you a bit of info about myself. I live in North Bay, Ontario and work full-time driving a city bus. I also own a couple websites that provide my downtime pleasure as well as some nice additional income.
I hope you will add me as a friend so that we can share ideas and comments on any topic you wish to chat about.
I have a picture of myself but cannot get it resized to fit the criteria so I am working on that.
Take care and enjoy. If you have a minute please take a run over to www.fun2work4.ca and check it out. You will probably find at least one or two interesting tidbits.
Thanks for stopping by.
