As Good As It Gets

Work, Work and more work.

My job takes up so much of my time and yet I feel like I am always behind.  It stresses me out.

It stresses me out looking at my bank account before paying my bills.  I, as of yet, have had any issues but it stresses me out anyway.  It has for YEARS!!!  I do not know what my problem is.

You would think I would have given the financial thing over to him when we were married.  I made that mistake once and he ended up draining the accounts to buy drugs then drove us into bankruptcy.

Then that created a whole new set of problems for me to work through while trying not to lose what was left of my mind.

Daughter in law was offered a few jobs.  She chose one and the second day she was there she was bitten by a kid.  On her way home from that job, another place called her and offered her a job as a Pre-K teacher assistant...for more money.  No brainer...she took it.  She doesn't start that job until the end of this next week.

They are still trying to work out a place to live.  I can't even think about it.

I had 2 thanksgivings.  One the night before with my son, DIL and daughter.  My son had to be in studio by Thanksgiving afternoon for 8 hours so we did it early.  I did not mind since I had the day off anyway.  I did cheat on the pies this year.  I bought them made and all I had to do was bake them.

On Thanksgiving Day I had a more vegetarian Thanksgiving with Jordan and Bethany.  Jordan was able to eat some turkey...just no sweet potatoes, potatoes or stuffing.  I made mashed cauliflower, squash, green beans, broccoli and everyone was quite stuffed.  Bethany and I added some stuffing and cranberry relish to our plates.

It was nice having that time to sit and have some good conversation with them all.

I need to force myself out of the house.  I am becoming not wanting to leave the house.  This is not good for me.  I am becoming a recluse and depressed.  ugh.  I do NOT want to be that person!
