Please know the facts before shooting your mouth off

Ok so i have to admit that i am.. one who is quick to temper from time to time
especially when i am under stress. And yes after the past few weeks due to mom's heart conditions and things that have been happening i have been a tad bit stressed.
My old work called wanting me to travel to another city ( roughly 50 miles from here) on Saturday to work for three hours. Although i would be paid for travel time and the milage it would not show up for about a month or so. Now you see here is the problem with this- i have worked about maybe.. 6 hours give or take in the last month so i didn't get a lot of money, and when i was paid what money i had was spent on gas going back and forth from the hospital or eating out because i neede to eat but didn't wanna go home and be alone.

Now i admit i set my self up for this when i posted on Facebook about my situation with the gas the driving. Now... it was fine untill someone i know decided to pipe up with out knowing all the facts... they had posted that " it's just to said city... not like it's across the country" True but i currently have.. half a tank of gas to last me a month driving 5 days a week to two different schools for my job...SO
" I have seen you posting about going to work" Oh yes a whopping SIX FREAKING HOURS In a month... do you know how much money that is? Rougly.. 51 bucks... and after taxes and such i got about 20 dollars. Which i had to spend on gas to go to and from the hospital while my mom was in there after having TRIPPLE bypass surgery and not one but two heart attacks.

She has not worked since the first hospital stay i have not worked since then. I start my new job monday the 13 but i'll be driving to two different locations 5 times a week.... and i won't be paid for three weeks so pardon me if i don't have the money to take a 100 mile jaunt round trip for almost... nothing. So... Please... before you go off the handle making smart ass remarks make sure you know the facts before shooting your mouth off... just makes you look like an ass and just pisses me the hell off.

The pounding at my door
Woke my from my sleep
A storm raged on
as the thunder crashed
I opened the door
to see a man standing there
Leaning on his staff
Huddled away from the wind

" Do you have room child,
for a old weathered man
to rest his weary bones
until the storm passes?"


My house was small
Barley big enough for just me
but i nodded and let him in
build up the fire- and offered what i could

I sat with him- most of the night
listening as the storm raged on
Seeming there was no end in sight
We talked and laughed
though the night
Till i fell asleep by the fires light

When i woke the next day the man was gone!
He left not even a trace!

Left on the chair he had been in sat a bag in his place -
With trembling hands i pulled open the strings
as a mountain of gold began to spill out

Twas then i noticed the note
that was left
" it's the least i can do for such a caring and blessed lass,
though you have little you shared what you could
and listened to this old mans tale
when you didn't have to
I hope that it helps you on your quest
and know from now on your are blessed
But the thunder god for the kindness you have show

Know when the storm rages on and the thunder rolls
I am near by looking out for you child- so do not be afraid things will get better
I promise this day "
