When it comes down to money

I've never been very ambitious, I like to keep things simple... just the way I was raised. I take joy with the little things. I graduated as an engineer and I've been told that I am an overachiever but the reality is that my daughters, my family, friends and everybody I love in general motivate me. I don't believe in easy money and whatever I've accomplished so far I've worked hard to obtain it. This week was different, I thought that I needed to win the lotto and I even thought of how much I needed :) Rocky's health is down again, it might be his spine, my mom has an hernia, Alex is staying in College during the summer and needs some cash, Maggie 2.0 (my bike) needs a mayor repair. I want to give Jeff (my honey) his beautiful backyard since he spends so much time there and Harley (my big dog) almost destroyed the door and needs to be repaired. I'd like to have the money to do all of the above. I even think that the reason I can't get over my dad's death and keep dreaming that he is cold, hungry, confused or wet is because I thought some day I will get him a house just for them, nothing fancy just something comfortable and at the end I was unable to even provide him with proper healthcare... his death was a mistake that it shouldn't happened. I feel that I failed but I am working to recover. On a brighter note, I got a great deal on a "new used bike". I usually ride 3 to 4 times a week so it will be good to have her in case my current bike is at the shop and that only means that I can keep peddling and stay sane. Cheers.
