Okay here it is…last Friday I thought everything was going great and then wham! It started out with a job interview and I ended up getting a job! I was so excited because I really needed it and it was one of my goals that were a top priority. It was my Mom’s birthday and I was pretty excited that it was such a good day! Then I returned home…
My mom was sitting on the coach bawling. Apparently she was mismanaging the household finances and got behind. She hadn’t paid the house payment in 4 months and they served her papers saying she had 20 day to pay the remainder or they would foreclose! I asked why didn’t she drop the extras like the cable and Internet and ask for help! She said she didn’t want my dad to know how bad it was. (He has worked in the same factory for over 28 years and even though he’s a supervisor gets treated like crap. He is partially deaf and has a degenerative that is slowly causing him to go blind. So he knows he can’t just start over somewhere else physically or financially) well he found out and it was a horrible site. With all the bad luck (He recently had to have an operation on one of his eyes because of a detached retina!) it was just a final straw. Plus my parents credit went down the drain a couple years ago when my sisters husband had my parents cosign a loan for him and then didn’t pay for the car plus hospital bills (Insurance sucks and that is all I have to say!)
So my good day went bad and depressed because there didn’t seem to be a solution. Finally my dad had to try to borrow from his 401k to save the house. It’s all just a mess. And I spent the weekend with my Ex because he wanted to cheer me up. My sister took our son and he made me laughed all weekend. Now it all depends on if the money comes in on time and I have no idea what is happening with my ex and myself. I start work next week and the stress is just too much! Money has been so tight this week I’ve just gone with the flow of offerings. Not all has been on plan but I’ve done the best I could (We had some beans one night, peanut butter for lunch and hotdogs another!) Once I start getting paid we will have more than enough income and I’ve volunteered to help my mom get organized financially. I took over her checkbook (I was literally in tears trying to balance the thing and organize her bills!) I haven’t indulged in junk food or sweets (I did have a few cups of coffee however). So I can’t say I’m cheat free anymore. I also quit stepping on the scale and my workout routine this week is terrible! I’m very stressed and confused.
Sorry for the sort of off topic post but I just had to gush a moment. Another positive four people have commented on my weight loss. I have probably gained a few pounds back due to stress (Always good for some added weight) really I have had the worst time just eating anything. I’m not hungry and just mentally exhausted! Thanks for listening!
