Where is busy bee?

I hate stress. Stress = Autoreaction consisting of a nasty headache, and a stomachache to match.

Why the stress? I'm not really sure. Money has been tight lately - too tight for groceries, and other such things. My mom, because she is awesome, decided to leave me some money in my bank account so I could get dinner for the next 2 nights, till I get paid. And, she discovered I misbalanced my checkbook, and overdrew by a dollar, and so my account was all screwy.

I'm completely ashamed that my mom had to clean up my banking mess for me. And she wasn't even going to tell me about it, because she didn't want me to stress, but decided to anyways, because I'd find out about when I got paid on Friday anyways.

Basically, my mom is super cool, and keeps taking care of me when I am way too old to be relying on her like this. She never makes me feel bad about it, which almost makes it worse.

Pretty much, I'm a bad daughter.

I had felt like I was doing better with balancing my account, and all that, since it's been about 9 months since I've had a major banking mishap. I think for the next couple of months, I'm going to put away my debit card, and just use cash and my checkbook. I need to make keeping good records a habit, and hopefully starting small with the checks will help.

Blah. I hate money, but love my family, because they are far too nice to me.

I can't wait for the weekend. I'm going home Saturday afternoon, seeing 3D with my mum and sister, and in general, am going to be lazy.

mom, weekend plans, bank mishaps
