Sleepless in San Antonio

Here I lie in bed trying to settle my brain down enough to go to sleep. Yea that ain't working. I keep thinking about how to make my family better. Thinking about how to get money coming in so that there is less financial worries. Worrying about my marriage and my kids.
I need to get a job to keep my self out of trouble for my child support. I need to be a better father to my kids. I need to be a better husband. Then there is the fact that we have the wife and mother-in-law dynamic. Every guy knows what I'm talking about that is married. Both women are trying to take care of me in their own way. Which ends up clashing. Everyone in our house has their issues and are not sure how to approach the issues without totally destroying or damaging things. So what do I do?
Then we have all this election crap. We keep the guy that some say has done us good. Or we put in a new guy and see what he can do. Some say that the debate they had pretty much decided it. What are we as Americans suppose to do? I need a health system that will take care of my kids when they need it and not have to jump through hoops to get the treatment they need. I need the jobs that they promise to start to appear already. Anyone that has or is unemployed knows what it's like to find a job these days. Then there are the jobs that are out there but no one qualifies for because they didn't have the money to get the education they need to get those jobs. So the people that are like me that as I say have " redneck degrees" are stuck with the jobs that pay shitty and go no where. We just end up with the same job title and pay until we just can't do the job anymore.
What is it with this nation that everyone thinks they are better than everyone else. No matter the income no matter the position they think they are better than the guy next to them. San Antonio is like that bad I've noticed. Someone could be in a crappy job with crappy pay but they act like they are one of the big spenders in town just because they have a purse from a flea market that is supposedly coach. Or they get a car that is out of their means just so that when they get out of it or are seen in it people will envy them. Do you know that I've had the same pairs of jeans and shirts for almost 5 years now and still treasure them and take care of them. No I didn't go and buy them all at one time I bought them over time. Yes they are a pricey but I got them when I could afford to get them. Not hey I want a new shirt screw my bills or anything else that I need. Only because I'd taken care of my needs then went to a want. That is what people need to learn. Take care of your needs then if you can move on to wants if you can. If people would follow that simple rule there would be less suffering and money issues and our nation would be in a better place.
Sorry for going all over the place. I just need to vent and whatever came to mind I wrote. Enjoy. Share. Subscribe. And please help me out by spreading the word about me and my blogs and videos. Make suggestions and comments. I would love to hear what y'all have to say or think.
