Therapy Thursday

I know its on FB too, but ready: go!

I posted on the FB page as well: 

I'm extremely stressed over money (not for the wedding just my personal finances). My boss messed up my numbers and said I made February so I was counting on a $2300 check. Well I got both paychecks and they were $1000 lower. I asked her about and she looked and was like oh you didnt make february so you got 6% commission. I needed that money. I have a credit card bill to get down and I'm going to Miami next week for this job! I'm so stressed about maxing out this credit card again (it's really close now ) and I know it stresses FI out. Oh and since life loves to kick me when I'm down, my windshield cracked and we get to pay $300 to replace it today

Where the heck is this FB page?

I'm really bummed on of FIs groomsmen bailed. I know he's a marine and that things happen, but the way it went down pisses me off.

He's know for a month he can't make it and "has been trying to make it work" but only told us last night because FI asked if he wanted to wear his dress uniform or a tux. I wish that we were told a month ago. There is a ton of planning going into this thing and when things are changing I need to be told ASAP. I already don't sleep at night. I'm glad the programs weren't printed.

Then, I got pissed off because in the same phone call he mentioned his wife is having a baby shower in NJ in July (our wedding is June 29) and he wants us to come. No offence, but please don't crush my spirits about you not coming to my wedding and then ask me to haul ass to NJ a week after our honeymoon to spend money on a gift. I *might have* thrown a temper tantrum when FI told me this and the words *directly proportional* were used; but I don't feel that bad, yet.

I have a FREAKIN' boot on my foot for the next 4-6 weeks!!! And, if it's not better then, I'll have it for an additional 4-6 weeks. So much for me being able to do cardio and dropping some extra weight. I know FI loves me the way I am, so I'm not worried about that. However, I do plan on doing some upper body and abs to get in a little better shape. I'm just so mad. I hurt my ankle 5 weeks ago and waited to go to the drs until Tuesday. I've sprained my ankle 5 times now, but never like this. I messed up my ankle, tendons, and Achilles tendon.

It has just been a couple crazy, hectic, busy weeks! This is the first week in 4 that either my FI or I have not been OOT for work. The last 5 weekends one of us as had to work extra. I have a grant deadline by Monday and thus have to have everything finished up by tomorrow. Thus getting things finished for the wedding has been hard because of it.

Saturday can not come soon enough. I need our vacation. I can't wait to leave for Costa Rica and see our friends get married.

Diamond that sucks. I'd be annoyed too

Ash61612

why is life so freakin expensive?? I never seem to have any money left over at the end of the month and am not making any progress on paying off my credit cards. I will be so glad when I move in with FI after the wedding and we will only have 1 set of bills

Tara, I would be pissed too! Sorry, it happened that way

I'm not either. I feel awful. FI already pays the majority of our bills. Just wish money grew on trees lol

Helping my friend pick up the remnants of her (very sudden and hurtful) cancelled engagement. He moved out last Friday and moved in with his new finacee...yay.

So we've had to spend more time and money on phone calls and announcements that the wedding has been cancelled and I'm hurting for her...I want her to be ok but we're done with wedding talk for now.

I gotta join the money vent.  I swear, every time I think I'm all caught up with bills, the next round starts!  I just want to pay everything and then have like 3 weeks to not worry about it!

I'm also mad because FI and I elected to do the "budget" plan of our gas & electric service because when we started on it, FI didn't have a job yet.  Anyway I saw that we had a balance accumulating from what we used less what we've paid (they gradually increase your payments over time so you can pay it down), and last month I overpaid the bill, in order to pay down the accumulated charges.  APPARENTLY that takes you off the budget plan and now our bill this month is 3x what we've been paying per month!  We can afford it, but I was hoping to pay it down a little more gradually since everything is going to the wedding right now.  Ugh!!

New fiance? God what a douche. I'm sure she's unbelievably hurt but obviously she is better off in the long run. I know that it sucks for you too because you feel the need to tone down the happy wedding talk around her, I'm going through that now with my BF.

I'm about to have a massive breakdown, I can feel it coming on. I think all the stress is just building and I'm so bored at work I have nothing to distract me from wedding crap.

And I finally started making some progress at the gym and of course my lower half is now injured. Boo.

that's awful but I am sure she appreciates you being there for her in this time of need

I feel like a walking stress ball! If it's not work, it's the wedding. If it's not the wedding, it's family. And money's connected to all of it. I'm starting to feel like I shouldn't of committed to taking over a new salon right before the wedding. At the same time, we needed the money from the raise I got. So I just have the pressure to get most wedding projects & running around done by mid-April so I can focus on the salon.

Oh and I just got an email from my bank saying they are charging 7 a month on checking accounts. 84 a year to keep this account? I don't think so.

I seriously wanna cry right now. I helped start a support group for military SOs and have put so much time and effort into it. Our original adviser isn't the adviser anymore but I found out people have been saying they don't like me to her and I've shot down service opportunities. I said I personally couldn't do one because I'll be out of town. I'm so mad things are getting twisted and I just wanna quit
