Cash flow, sickness, manic depression

web-toedchloe by web-toedchloe · Aug 5, 2002 · 129 views · Journal

I spent an hour trying to balance my budget this morning. I don't know if I'll be able to afford a lot of the things I was going to do before the summer was over. :( It's the most sickening feeling to look at your finances and realize that you can't do something you want to. I'm not sure when I reached this point; staying up late worrying about money. It's too adult a tendency.

I think the can of pineapple chunks I ate at lunch made my stomach feel better. I only had a sandwich yesterday, and 1/2 a sandwich the day before.

I was watching a movie during lunch that had a manic-depressive character. Manic. I think that's an interesting term---adj : affected with or marked by frenzy or mania uncontrolled by reason. Who's controlled by reason all the time anyway? Lately I find myself deviating from reason more and more. This entry, for example, is probably my most scatterbrained yet. So what significance does that have? Am I manic because I'm not being controlled by reason? I'd get professional help if I had the money.

I feel terrible for people with manic depression and bi polar problems. I wish they could be my friend . we's go hang out for a day. i wonder if i can make them feel better. or just make them feel worse. i'll make sure we eat lots of fruit snacks and skinny dip.

What makes you think skinny dipping with you would make anyone feel better?

Well, Diana, we all go through it... I've been so overwhelmed by $$$ problems I've even thought about coming off the pioneer list so I can catch up on my bills. Then after praying rather in depth about it, and working my budget, I felt better. MY problem is that I want everything paid off NOW. But I'll have my AMEX paid off next month, then tackle my Master Card. It takes discipline, which I'm working on. Hang in there, little sis!
