Taxes, Taxes, Taxes

As I don't work my house-hold currently has a very limited supply of cash. My wife is earning a certain amount that we have to twist and turn in every direction so that we can afford to eat, live, and pay our taxes... Sometimes if we are very careful we get to have some fun like going to the cinema or going on holiday. This month we received our tax statements for this year. Our council tax which was at £114 per month (as we moved in last year) is now at approximately £106 per month, however we have a problem we aren't allowed to pay £106 per month for the single reason that they have to redo the computers, which apparently they have to do each year. This in turn means that we have to pay £124 for 10 months, this seem quite insignificant but we will most certainly miss that £10 per month, now the only cure to this is that I find a job and at the moment I am very much considering the idea of becoming a cosmetics consultant to remove all our problems. The only problem with this is that I am worried that my plan for selling them is somewhat flawed and I cannot get rid of the idea that even though it was given to me very definitely that it was just some conjuration of my own person thinking that this is a quick fix to all of my current problems... I hope that I am not in some respect going actually insane from this experience and imagining up every answer to this particular question. Well in anyway I am sure God has my back... well I am most of the time, I can honestly say that sometimes I have doubts, like the fact that my mum came down this weekend and spent it basically talking about seeing other people and battering me with getting a job... She seems to think I have the amazing ability to magically produce a job, she has no idea what the climate is like at the moment and maybe she needs to wake up as I am pretty sure that soon she herself is going to be out of work. I don't know I guess I am quite angry at the moment with how things are, maybe she is right, maybe I should just magic up a job and go work for myself doing whatever it is I can think of... I suppose becoming a cosmetics consultant would be the best idea then. I don't know I need to pray about it.

Thanks for reading, God Bless,
