feeling crappy woke up in the middle of the night with a headache - my stomach feels wonky - and to top it off I brought this on myself - worrying about things - nice to know what you can do to yourself physically.
Called in and then my boss didn't get my message so they called worried about me - at least they care, lol
Sitting here trying to plan out some sort of action in trying to get things paid - too many expenses - not enough funds - the joy's of separation.
I had to call stbx to let him know his daughter may be sking for money - I just don't have any to give her. He pays mortgage, car payment.
Need to do something here - enough - he can't see that I need help to feed his kids - how sad is it when they don't
Oh well sorry about the vent -

" So sorry you feel bad today, hope you feel better soon. I feel sorta bad this morning also, woke up in the middle of the night feeling crappy adn anxious too, but after reading your post I remembered that I have to go in to work & try to get some more money to try to keep up with this hellish "budget" I inherited from the jerk when he walked out! So, I am going in, a tad late, the worst par tof going in a little late is that the good parking psots are usually gone, sigh. Yes, I know the "joys of separtaion" all too well myself, lol. maybe I can come home early today - it is a court holiday, Ceasar Chavez Day, so maybe it will be slow. Wonder what else is closed today - maybe the commute will be decent?

Try to rest aan feel better and get something done on your budgetting, I'l do the same! "

" Vent away...i too know all too the financial stresses. My support just got cut 65 bucks a week.Down to 358 for all 6 of us. Not sure what to do. If i work, could lose the help and beneifits i do get, plus my kids require a lot of my time..don't know what would happen to the house, whou would do all the running..just so many unknowns. My STBX is angry about what he does have to pay.. He lives with mom and dad, rent free, utility free, food free, all he has to do is pay the debt he made by making crappy business decisions and for his pick up and us...try feeding and clothing 5 girls..the shoes alone at school time is exorbitant! Hey, who's venting now!? I guess we just need to believe we will b provided for. We might not get everything we want but we'll get what we need somehow and make it by until better days. I HOPE!!! Hey, i hope you feel better. Rest your mind and soul..hugs "

" Hope you're feeling better Bugged. Get some rest first, then deal with the budget. Then you'll probably need a glass of wine-and get some more rest! "
