Bipolar tendencies: II

Apr 19, 2010 21:31

I still find that I am struggling with this bi polar thing. What is my deal right now? I need to get on top of my game right now, but I just can't seem to get there. I have a class that starts in three weeks, and I really need to get focused. For six weeks I will have to work the regular 40 hour work schedule and still take a Spanish class for six hours in the middle of that. The government still hasn't gotten my refund to me, so I may have to borrow some money to pay for the class, otherwise I should be able to get through the summer with plenty of money to pay for the summer classes, but it is the fall and spring that is really concerning me. I should have scheduled a meeting with financial aid last week (for friday actually) but I just didn't. I am working plenty of hours but I can't seem to motivate myself during lunch to make the calls that I have to start making. now I have pushed it off to this week and I don't even know if its too late now. I filed my fafsa back in March so I am doing fine as far as that is concerned, but my notification said that I wasn't eligible for any federal aid. That is the heart of the issue I think.

On top of that, I had to pick up the tab for suzanne a few weeks ago, again. this makes three times and I am struggling with how I should respond to this. It is serious, and I find myself with reservations when I am with her. She is getting frustrated that I am not over it, but when someone owes you almost $900 because of poor financial management how should you feel? I told her that if she can't get a handle on things, I can't be with her. That was really hard. She got her promotion at work though, so maybe that will help her get things under control. I hope so, I don't want to break up with her; but I don't know what else I could do. I know that my faith instructs me not to concern myself with material goods, and money is the epitomy of worldly interests, but don't believe that means that I should attach myself to someone who cannot handle their own money. The worst thing about the whole deal is that she is far and away the best thing that has happened to me in that realm of my life.
