YES.
Seriously, what good is being pissed off at the world going to do? Nothing. It's wasted energy, and wasted time.
You've aired your gripe. You've let other folks know that you guys are getting shafted by Oxeo. What else can you do right now?
Nothing but sit back and wait.
So rather than wasting this great saturday night raging over someone trying to help lighten things up, go have a glass of wine (or Pepsi if you prefer) and sit on the couch cuddling up with your hubby. Trust me, the time will be MUCH better spent.
Whenever a situation comes up, you have a choice. You can focus on the negative shit, or you can focus on the positive stuff.
Your hubby is still there with you. You didn't lose your house. Your kids are beautiful and happy and they actually have both a mommy AND a daddy who live with them and love them. (Not many kids have that these days.) You are both still able to work. Your heat is still on. You've still got food in the fridge.
Things could be SO much worse, and here you are getting mad at people you don't even know and *wasting* time doing so, when you could be taking a break and looking around you and appreciating how goddamned lucky you are to have an intact family that loves you and a means to keep your family together. There's a bunch of folks out in the below-freezing weather right now who have neither of those things.
Count your blessings while you've got them. When you're 80 years old and looking back at this, what will you wish you had rather done? Spent an hour bitching on the boards, or spent that hour with your kids while they were small enough to still be with you?
Pretty simple if ya ask me.
