Chatty (2)

This has been the hardest week of my life. The prior week I worked 77 hrs with no thanks from my work. I absolutely love my job and the kids. I work for behavioral kiddos in group homes. Monday, I received a ticket for speeding because apparently my tires aren't calibrated to my spedometer. I walk into work and get demoted for not having a smile on my face. I only get 18 hours this week and then on Friday my boss calls me to rush to work to talk about my schedule. I get to work and get laid off because I need one weekend per month off so my kids and I can spend time together. That is the only time I see them and on their breaks. I also have hypothyroidism and herniated discs. I was laid off 2 days before Christmas! I am very disappointed. I never called off. I always came in early if needed and dedicated my life to this company. I am divorced and my ex was angry at me for these strange hours and wasn't going to deal with it anymore. Yet I rush to work to get laid off? I also owe Child Support because the judge stated I see my kids only 44 times per year which is not true and I live paycheck to paycheck. My family doesn't talk to me nor do I have any friends ever since the divorce.This divorce has also consumed my life. It has been 3 years and we are still going to court! My truck has consumed most of my money and still needs more work. I need some words of inspiration. Please!
