27. I had the opposite reaction
Edited on Mon Nov-14-05 02:32 PM by Mizmoon
Not being able to provide a stable home and the basics made me sad and stressed out. I feel much better now that I can provide those things and more easily. What changed was that I got a degree and was able to produce an income that met our needs.

True, the then baby doesn't remember it, but I remember that night in November of 1990 when the heat was turned off for lack of payment and we had to huddle under a blanket for warmth while I cried. What I would have given for the pittance it would have taken to get it turned back on!

They aren't the best memories.

I guess since then I've had a bit of the "I'll never be hungry again" thing going on. :)
