Jeez I'm having a crap week.

Anyone else out there having a crap week with me????

I know the feeling Sarah... I've been having a bad few months... The way I get through it is by remembering that as bad as things are at the moment.. They can always be a lot worse!!... Not that the thought usually helps.. but it's better than crying myself into a depression... I hope it gets better for you sweetie...

This was last week.
Monday: Could get my tire off my van. It was rusted on.
Tuesday: Got laid off from a job I had for 8 years.
Wednesday: Water Pump goes on the van
Thursday: Washer is leaking now. Where from I don't know
Friday: $40.00 to feed 4 kids and a wife plus Binkx after bills.

This week No better so yes I had me a tough one.

Mine has been ok I guess. I have a cold so that has put a damper on things!

Right well you definitely win then!! Not that it's a competition obviously but my week hasn't been as bad as all that. Just work related, mainly. Had two VERY young people diagnosed with incurable cancer and had to hang up today on a very feeble patient who just keeps trying to manipulate me into looking after her psychiatric problems and keeps me on the phone for hours when I've literally got at least forty other patients to look after at the moment. Had to just firmly say, `I have to go now' and hang up on her. Felt awful all day because of it but honestly, there was just nothing else I could do.

I also have about $30 left to survive on and somehow have to find $85 to have Sunday clipped, bathed and sedated next week because I am a very bad mummy and she has big dreadlocks all over her and I have been neglectful and naughty!!

Sigh - oh well, every cloud has a silver lining they say. My brother's baby is due in two weeks and that's going to light up all of our lives!

Sorry you guys are having a bad week. I hope things get better for you. I felt a little icky this week, but I guess mine hasn't been so bad, comparatively.
Sending you "things-will-get-better vibes!

A hug for every day of the week!

monday - no money in bank
tuesday - money in bank went shopping and payed most bills
wednesday - bfs bday
thursday i have to hand in 2 weeks of work for my school. - received telephone bills
friday we only have not even 50 euros to live off for the rest of the month

Just remember, when you get to the end of your rope, ty a knot in the end and hang on........it'll get better!

Gee after reading all this I feel somewhat better about my situation. Actually mine wasn't that bad except for one looming total disaster, my father wants to move back out here and have me take care of him again, and I'm just at the end of my rope about that one. To all of you out there that are having a hard time, I hope things get better for you. On the financial end I have been there and done that numerous times. Hugs to all of you and best wishes. All I can do in my situation is hope and pray that I can dissuade my father from trying to come out here again, ugh.

For all people out there with money problems... I know exactly what you're going through. I've got a permanent cash flow problem... namely it's all flowing in the wrong direction. My week hasn't been as bad as yours, but I do have the cold from hell. I've not slept too much and my sinuses hurt Still... as mrsd said, tis but a law of averages. Sooner or later it'll have to balance out and get better! Just think, tomorrow is Friday... you have the weekend to recover and then on Mondya you've got a fresh slate to write on. to everyone - but I promise not to give you my cold

my crap week started Sunday, when my boy Snickers became ill.

Then Monday, dropping him off and crying for hours.
Tuesday... more crying
Wednesday... received final bill from my daughter's heart surgery. Financial problems? Didn't used to have them. Do now.
Still working on MY hospital bills from stupid pneumonia. buh-bye paychecks...

Today... more worrying bout Snickers.
Friday night: sit in a dark corner and get drunk. Puke til I feel better.
Saturday: pick up Snickers and pray to God he is healed.
*** bad week finally over ***
Financial troubles, just starting...

I like the saying, "when you get to the end of your rope, make a noose". Hrm.

Yikes, I think that was KNOT, not NOOSE!! Hugs........

Re: noose... ah I'm not suicidal, never was. They say these things happen in threes, and it did for us. First me, then my daughter, now Snickers. I just wish it had been more spaced out. Wham wham wham, now pay us back, ma'am!!!

Billing departments of hospitals & insurance companies are totally lacking empathy. They just want yer money, even if ya explain ya don't have it and won't have it. And they're rude about it.

I am having a crap week. I was given an official warning on another board for calling attention to the BLATANT sexual innuendoes. I was accused of causing trouble.

Women there who are married were talking about making out with the men on the board. One told a guy to refill his Viagra cause she was coming over.

Now I am the bad guy, and no one much there will speak to me.
I am accused of being a prude.
