Today is a rainy day

I don't know about you, but I am really tired and scared of the way the world is going. I look at the price of gasoline and I worry over the fact how much am I going to spend for a gallon of gas?? What is my limit? Will I have to purchase a horse and buggy? What about the price of food? I mean just the price of milk and eggs and staples are enough to put you in a bad mood. I think we will be spending our paychecks just trying to feed our families. What are the answers out there? Will my children ever see the days when a gallon of gas costs less than two dollars a gallon? Will they ever be able to own their house? Will they be smarter than I am? I wish that I had finished college and chose a better profession. I am happy being a hairdresser, but we don't make alot of money for all the work we do. However the price of haircuts have gone up and the price of color service is outragous to some older hairdresser who maybe paid a nickle for a shampoo set. Yes, I have met some of those hairdressers. I always feel guilty charging them the price of a shampoo set today, which is 12 dollars. Not bad still. So I am complaining about prices, I think we really need to start thinking about food supply and prepare for the future. I think that kids today need to start to think about the profession that will bring them the most happiness, and the most money. I hate to think like that, but times are not going to get any better and that is the sad to me. Like some prophets of the past have told us to live within our means, but just living within our means, means that we can eat for the week. So today is indeed a rainy day.
