We’ve been super-busy this past week, a lot of things going on. Primarily this is getting prepared for the munchkin to go to pre-school which starts this next week. He’s very excited and eager to get started so much so that he’s driving the rest of us batty. Also the issues with the car that [...]

I’ve been feeling out of sync on and off for the past few days. I know this is in part due to not sleeping well and I’m not sure what can be done to rectify that until after Wednesday when I talk to the psychiatrist again. Part of it is that I’m still trying to [...]

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 [...]

We’re still sorting the house out while we adjust to having another person in it, and also new items. The most recent of these is a dishwasher. We had a dishwasher in the house when we moved in. Though it’s been the bane of our existence. It doesn’t clean things properly, it gets infested with [...]

My psychiatrist did something that I thought was a little odd. At the last visit he prescribed for me to have blood work done and asked me to make sure I got my annual physical. It was a bit unexpected. On the one hand it’s a good idea for me to have a check up. [...]

We’ve been doing fairly well with the exercise thing. We didn’t do any today but we did a LOT of walking today, going around the mall, going around downtown and things like that. So, I think I got my exercise in. Still by far my favorite fitness equipment has to be our Wii Fit. Hubbie [...]

We’re still on that saving money kick. The main thing I wish we could sort out is to find some cheap health insurance. Hubbie’s health insurance doesn’t technically cost us that much out of this paycheck, but given we have to make up $100 per month in deductible it doesn’t work very well for us [...]

It’s a scary thing having our financial future mapped out over the next few months to see the state of our affairs, but at the same time it’s good, it should prevent us from having a major overdraft again in the future. We’ve been sorting out things out financially as well as we can. Rearranging [...]

I wonder if I can set up something in my brain that’s like a KVM switch to try and turn off the negative feelings. I tend to spiral out of control with these things. I raced down to the bank this morning and deposited $20 hubbie had found in and around his dresser left over [...]

I’m so mad right now. You may remember me saying we were having some issues with the bank? Well, there’s more. Yesterday after the person on the phone reversed the second overdraft charge he said they would. I was assessed two more which he’d warned me about. He told me those would be the last, [...]
