I can feel things start to go pear-shaped in my head, y'all, and I don't know how to avoid it. This is not good. Not with all the obligations I have, and with the knowledge that I don't have a single free weekend to just veg and get my head together until after the holidays.
Lemme see:
* I have 4 major sewing projects to get done before mid-December. Do I have them started? Of course not.
* I have 1 psychology paper to write, and I won't know what I want to say until I sit down and do it. Oh, and I sold my psych textbook to put gas in the van, so I'll have to borrow from a classmate to write the paper.
* Boe's temp job ended a couple of weeks earlier than planned, so that really screws with us. At least we were able to pay the past due mortgage payments to keep a roof over our heads, so that's all right. We also paid the water bill and have a payment arrangement set up with the electric company. This just leaves the phones and the gas bill...and our phones were cut off yesterday, so I can't get in touch with anyone except via face-to-face and the computer -- when I'm at school.
* I still want to sell off my stash, but without the phones, I can't take pictures and upload them to the internet.
* Because Boe was pulling 20 hour days, I was in charge of housekeeping. I was keeping up with it all there for a while, but since things are starting to get a bit negative in my head, I haven't been able to get anything done...I just get home and sink into a stupor.
* The brakes on the van are getting really frighteningly bad. Grind grind grind grind grind. Oh, and the transmission is starting to go out, but in my mind that's not as critical as being able to stop when I need to. At least it's just the front right brake, right? Oh yes, and this *would* be the same van that we sunk $1000 into for brakes previously. And the van won't be paid off til March. Yeah, never buying from that place ever again.
So, yeah, that's what's going on in my little corner of the world.
