When it Rains it Pours

I didn’t realize how long it’s been since I last posted something. I’ve been under a lot of stress over the past couple of days, and it’s not just over finances. Most of it has been over my health, more specifically, anxiety issues. I have a tendency to overstress myself by constantly worrying about things I can’t change at the moment. One of the reasons why the financial stressors impact me so much is because it STILL feels like it will be another month until I can truly start kicking into high gear and GET US OUT OF DAMN DEBT.

Another pay period has come today (Friday) and yet, none of that can go to credit cards. $900 of it must go to a stupid bill that I did not know about until two weeks ago. We get another $1880 paycheck on Tuesday, and yet again, that can’t go to paying down any ccs (credit cards) either.  We have a bill due on that SAME DAY for $2400, meaning that I have to save at least $520 from today’s paycheck in order to come up with Tuesday’s total. Wow. That’s leaves me with $200 until the next pay period.  And next period, is the worst because it’s the time of the month when my $2500 mortgage is due, my $650 car payment, and various consumer loan payments are due.  So again, I say, it will be another whole entire freakin month before I can even start thinking about credit cards. And another month before I can find my peace and sanity again. I just hope I have enough Xanax to last me until then.
