We were entitled to not really seeing much of each other because I worked the day shift and my husband did the night and weekend shift. I didn’t “entitle” myself to manicures, pedicures and someone else dying my hair. That would have taken money away from our household. We did entitle ourselves to working hard, raising decent children with morals, loving and believing in our faith, helping anyone whenever it was possible. Bottom line, we worked our a$$s off to be “entitled”. Now, from what I hear, we are asked to give up our houses that we are not “entitled” to have. Crazy world for sure.

Wow you sound like my parents raising 4 kids in a one bedroom apartment before my dad borrowed money from everyone he knew to buy a two family home in Brooklyn and work a million hours a week to pay everyone back.
