05/12 - Speedier Sunday!

[Gator]

I just feel like venting for a moment... so, this month is really stressful. With the way our bills hit and my fiancé's checks hit, we are going to be about $300 short on our bills. He gets paid 2 days after our rent becomes late, and the day after he gets paid our electric is going to be shut off. I'm hoping that everything will play out fine and we can pay it then and they won't shut it off the next day... in the meantime I'm really going to try to make $115 by the 23rd to pay one of the bills off to ease some of the tension. It's just making me depressed because I've interviewed for so many jobs and they seem so promising and I get told I'll hear by this time and then I hear absolutely nothing. The worst was when they said, if you don't hear by x time on x day, email your recruiter - I emailed her twice and received no response. It was really disheartening.

Hang in there. $115 should certainly be doable. You got this.

My PE was over $400 for the week for the first time in a long time, but here's what paid out. I'm happy enough about it.

Overdrive has some of his books but they're all in Spanish. Are you reading him in Spanish?

I grew some flowers for the moms.

I don’t want to make a big deal about it, but it took me all morning. And they’re a bit weathered, like me.

Just got back from the CSA (work/trade for food - when it starts growing, that is).
Farmer: So, what special plans do you have for the day?
(it is mother's day, of course).
Me (standing in a pile of poo): You mean besides spreading cow manure?

I got it off Amazon a while ago, I think at .99. Only recently read it. Look in the Kindle section....and it's certainly in English. I'd have noticed if it was in a language I couldn't read. It's good enough for a buck. I usually go for the free ones.

Thanks, I will. It was strange that Overdrive didn't have any of them in English

You can do it! I'm so sorry things are stressful right now. Have you called your electric company and talked to them about the bill being late and explaining? And same for rent? When I was growing up, we barely had money for bills. My parents were always late paying and they'd contact whoever and work out a plan.

Things have a way of working themselves out and sometimes it takes a while for them to get there. Keep doing what you are doing. Persistence and patience will get you where you want to go. Remember, there are lots of people here that support you. You can do this.
