The Princess and the Pea

You all remember the story of the Princess and the Pea? How the Princess could not sleep because there was that little pea under all those mattresses. Well for her she was kept awake because she was delicate of nature. Well in some way I feel like the Princess. I cannot sleep but instead of bruised skin I have a bruised mind. I am kept awake but the clutter of thoughts in my head. My main focus right now is my home. I am so worried that one day I will wake up and be in the same situation as so many others. So many are losing their homes due to bad advice and even worse, banks who loan more than they should and then do nothing to help them out when they need it most. What if this happens to me? I am not someone who has cash stashed in accounts for a rainy day. So what happens when taxes increase and payments increase and the cost of your home drops like the Dow? I hope I don't find out but I feel for those that are in this sutuation now. So I continue to worry, as I normally do, but pray everyday I can stay where I am and continue to make it my home.
