Wife and I had a small fight last night.

The church gave us a turkey and some food.

Outlaws are coming down with the main meal.

She is mad at me for NOT refusing any food from the church. All of the food that could be cooked next month.

My thinking.....

we are two months behind on the Morgage and she just had a 2000 dollar car repair

Her thinking.... we need no help. Others need it more.




Call me selflish but I only get one good meal a week. Otherwise its stuff from the vending machine or fast food. I WANT to have some real food to eat.

....as the stomach churns.... until the next episode.

#$%^&%#*& Internet ate my post!

Long story short:

1) You were absolutely right to accept the help. If you've fallen, even if you can get up by yourself, there is nothing wrong with accepting a hand up.

2) Your wife is having a VERY human and VERY common response to accepting help. Changing your life or accepting help is difficult, moreso when it involves assistance from a charity. Its common to think that this means "I've failed" somehow...and when a charity is involved, that means that "others know I'm having problems"- a potential long-term source of embarrassment. Proceed carefully.

3) You're in my prayers, dude!

Hey Rat... I never answered your question (I never heard your im and fell alseep reading a book).
The name Ola was based on Oola (who is known for being the Twi'lek that was fed to the Rancor and for being the only female character in Star Wars to have shown nipple) .. it appatently is a real name (in several languages).
