ROUGH PATCH
So I'm in a rough patch right now. I'm trying to remeber to be grateful, but it's not working for me.
I need new brakes on the car, but can't put my car in the shop for another week. I'm praying I have enough to pay for them.
I have to get the air conditioning fixed. you'd think that after only 6 years a brand-new $2700 unit would still be working. Alas, not. I'm praying I have enough for that fix too.
Work is sucking big-time right now. I'm right in the middle of budget season. As I was discussing taking training today, and outlining "the next big thing" to my supervisor, she said, so when will you have time for training? I said, Late August is looking good right now. Well, when are you taking a vacation, you know take the kids somewhere? Well, that would assume I either have money or credit to do that, which I don't. My ex, however, is taking 2 vacations with my kids.
The only bright spot is that camping at the beach weekend with (hopefully) camperamy , needsunshine , and perhaps some new friends of friends I haven't met yet.
And I'm not getting laid lately either. I'm getting fat. And I'm afraid I'm turning into my mother. Sigh. Check back with me after the 4th July ~ maybe I'll be feeling less desparate.
