I don’t handle stress entirely well. I’ve known this for quite some time. However every once in a while I get reminded; when things happen such as this morning.
There I was filtering through all the prototype 37c reviews, viagra offers, and Nigerian bank scams and finding random messages from relatives across the pond when Mum called and the conversation reminded me that I had to check the bank.
The bank showed me -$125 which freaked me out as that would mean more overdraft fees and I don’t want to get into that vicious cycle again.
I think we’ve sorted it out now. I’ve managed to go and deposit a rent check despite the fact that my car isn’t working. This is thanks in no small part to Mum coming and rescuing me. However I’m still disturbed and not at rights and won’t be until tomorrow when the overdrafts don’t happen (as the teller said they shouldn’t). I dislike these things greatly though. My stomach hasn’t been doing well the past few days thanks to a virus and an allergy flare up and here we are getting stressed with goes right to the stomach too.
At least I hadn’t planned on going anywhere and spending anything today.

Oh we hate that, too. It is stress to the nth degree. We are thankful cuz hubby is taking over the finances at our house after being together since 2004. I’ve struggled with the money for so long and it made no sense cuz hubby is good with managing those things. Still, we have learned a lot over the last 7 years and are somewhat better considering when we first got together, we were going in the red every month. Talk about overdraft fees. Really really hate them. He recently took over the finances and is in the process of undoing stuffs that we have done. heh. But, we are hoping things will look better in the future. We hope things will calm down for you all, too, as the point of this comment was to tell you that we hear ya and we totally can relate to how stressful it is. Take gentle care, our friends.
The finance thing seems to have sorted out, and I’m, at least, finding it pretty straight forward.
Hope things are going easier for you guys with all of that too.
Money sucks, pure and simple.
