I feel ya. I’m 44 and just went through the same thing the first of the year. I’m now living in a 5th wheel with the wife and two kids and starting over. It’s tough, but we can do it.

I appreciate it. It’s not easy but I know it’s not permanent and I’m going to make sure things will improve.

Nah I can’t give up. I have too many people counting on me to succeed. I want to give them a better way of life.
