Another Day, Another Dime...Litterally

I know I should be grateful to have a job, but I have been so depressed lately that all I want to do is crawl into bed with the heating pad under me and close the blinds for a long time. My mood swings from right to left, up and down, all the time. Last night, I was working on a budget for February, and realized that on paper, things just don't add up. This, of course, made me really sad, depressed, and feel hopeless. Work distracted me in a little way, but all of those feelings came back at lunch when I started inquiring about how much longer Scott will have health coverage and what options we have when it comes to paying his car loan. I end up having to take care of things like this because I am better at it. I know the right types of questions to ask and and I have the right "attitude" when push comes to shove. When I gott home, I had made up my mind to just finish my school assignment (which was a day late and totally my fault) and then be done. Bum around, play a game, read, whatever. This made me feel better. That, combined with knowing how much money I have (or really, don't have) to spend over the next month. Seriously, my paycheck is already overspent! Oh well.
