I happened to get another temporary part time job, so hopefully I can put aside enough of it for the BP stack. I'm about to go into a high rep scheme to try and strengthen joints and what not then I'll be hitting the BP hard. I expect to see 3 plates on that bench press soon :p.

that's unfortunate man, but you know what they say - men make plans and god laughs. but just think of it this way: the time you spend working out is your time, nobody else, not even if they're gonna foreclose on your house tomorrow - it's all about you, your goals, your gains, your fitness, your little bit of zen. so i guess that having big stresses in your life is an even better reason to hit the gym; it might be the only time that you have to yourself when you can fully let go of everything other than the weights. don't let those go though they will bust your nice smooth concrete up
Turbo, the measure of a man isn't how he behaves when things are going well. It's when you're at the bottom, when life keeps piling it on. You can still decide to be happy. You can still decide to do the right thing.
Hardship is the ultimate opportunity for growth. Once you can prove to yourself that you can be great despite circumstances, not because of them, you've earned the confidence to know that you make your own happiness. You create your own destiny. And nobody or nothing can ever take it away.
So go out and Do Work -- one day at a time, one foot in front of the other. When you climb back to the top, you can look at this as one more challenge that you've conquered and one more experience that you've earned.
Good luck to you, sir.

One of my favorite quotes in the world!!
"Strength does not come from winning, your struggles develop your strengths, when you go through hardships, and decide not to surrender, that is strength.." *-Arnold Schwarzenegger*
