Kick Em When They're Down
Our mortgage bank processed our payment this month twice, incurring three hundred dollars worth of overdraft fees in one day. No matter how I manage to get this resolved there will be no Christmas tree or gifts for Abbey from us.
I am so exhausted at this point that I can't even rally up some rage. My reaction was honestly "Yup. That happened." Yup we're 900 dollars in the red now, here you go gaping maw have our tiny savings we've collected in the past two months. It's us, if it can go all to hell, it will. With interest apparently.
We are going to be fine. It will take another two months to get back to where we were going to be, but it will work out. The mortgage company will probably credit us for January's payment, we can pay the personal a month late with a manageable late fee--and Jared's next paycheck will hit on the due date for the property taxes. We'll be completely broke until February but we've had less before. We can still pay all of our bills and have money for groceries.
Everything will be fine. Someday.
