I know that my life is in general pretty good. Really, I know that. I've had enough truly awful things happen to me to have that kind of perspective.
However, the past few weeks (months, really) have just been one thing after another. My husband lost his job in November. We have the car people, the student loan people, and even public storage place threatening us.
Tobie burned his paw badly (but he's mostly better now), using all the funds we had available this month to treat him.
My mom is getting worse by the day, and she won't go back to the doctor to see if her breathing is worse due to the autoimmune condition, a heart condition, or hernia.... so she just wastes away very very slowly.
Yesterday, my husband got in a car accident, and we just changed insurance companies.... so in addition to having to come up with a deductible, our rates are going to go up.
And today.... I :censor::censor::censor::censor::censor::censor::censor: BROKE MY FOOT! I was trying to avoid stepping on Godiva as I came down the stairs, but instead I skipped a couple steps and landed on the floor at a funny angle on the inside of my foot/big toe. It's not a bad break, but it hurts like hell, and I'm a waitress. I will get fired if I don't grin and bear it and keep going to work.
