I sure do! I am for alot of reasons! I got paid last friday. I thought I had bought all my money orders that day. On monday I realized I had forgot one! I was like "How did I manage that"! Then I realized I could not buy another money oreder to pay this monthly payment for my gasoline card! I didn't want to misss a payment because I have enough people after me to pay up on bills even though I am paying making monthly payments! So I ended up borrowing money to make my monthly payment! On top of that I will pay that person back at the of the month which menas I can't get an oil change on my car and pay up on my dentist bill! I sent out my water bill friday and today I get a letter from the water company saying they have not recieved my payment and if they don't by the 18th I get disconnected! I will call them and see if they have recieved my payment yet! I sure don't want to be borrowing money from more money for the post office not doing their job! I am so sick of messing up with money even if when I am not trying! I wish I could win the lottery! I wish I knew if I get an inheritance and if I do how much. I am sick of this! If I didn't have to worry about money I would be less of a worry wart!
Then add I have my good and then bad acid reflux days! I still have adult diaper rash and now it feels like I might have my hermaroids flaring up! The weight I lost,I have put some back on! I know were I am going to spend Christmas but it has not helped my gloominess at all! I am so sick of this crap!

I'm sorry you are going through such a tough time. The economy has been tough on so many of us and I wish it would get better but I don't see it happening anytime soon. One thing that helped me was to get all my credit cards consolidated. Doing so, lowered the interest rate and my payment somewhat. I hope things get better soon for you, Blue. And I really hope you enjoy Christmas

I know just what you mean by the financial frustration. I should have it easier now that all my girls are grown but instead i feel as if it is harder to just get by. I haven't had a raise in years which really bites.
One thing you can do to save on Christmas is wait to do any shopping until afterwards when everything goes on clearance since your family is not celebrating until the 29th.

Things are better but if I had better self-esteem/confidence I would not be going through this trauma I am right now. I get gloomy around this time a year because of the holidays. This year is worse because so much other crap happened at once!
I am looking forword to seeing my nephew who is in the Navy. Dan is currently on leave and his folks (his dad is my younger brother) are having a party for him on friday. Christmas will be on the 29th at my older brother's.
I did find out the other day at work we are getting pay raises in March. It has been a few years since the last one. I am happy but like all the past ones they never covered the increase of living! Health insurance went down. I should be happier about that but am not. I am better but not as good as I could be.

Aww sweety. You sure are having a bummer of a time...scuse the pun. It really hurts when you are doing all you can to get your bills paid and yet still not able to keep up. I totally understand how you must be feeling miserable and I just wish I could think of a way to bring you some cheer.
I'd like to see you getting a little bit of more exercise like going for a 10 minute walk each day, that will help heaps with the physical problems at least. Do you think you could manage that? I know you work hard but just 10 minutes would be so beneficial for your reflux etc and also your mood.
Hope you feel better soon sweety.

Sorry you are going through the money juggling blues. So easy to forget something like that. Been there and sympathize completely. Hope this round of the gloomies passes soon.

The gloomies are better. I found out we are getting a pay raise at work in March next year. Don't expect it to cover the increase of living! It never has it is better then none! We have not had one in a few years. Last month are health insurance has gone down for the coming year. That helps a little.
I will be seeing my family on the 14th. My nephew,who is in the Navy,is on leave and is home for a few weeks. On friday his parents (his dad is my younger brother)are throwing dan a party. So I will see most of my family. Finally found out Christmas,in my family,will be on the 29th at my older brother's place. That makes me happy but doesn't get me in the Christmas mood! I have tried and I give up on it! It is hopeless!
I would be better finacically if my part-time job was not casual. When it was 6 mornings week,I was better off! WIsh it was like it used to be! It still bugs me that it isn't!
