    Default Stress!!!

    Okay, so I'm not bad with money. I have a cushy savings account and I always make my rent and bill money within the first week of the month... That hasn't happened this month. (I've been making the same income, that's not it.)

    At the end of last month, I decided that I deserved a reward and bought myself a really nice TV for $1500. Then, I let my mom talk me into taking a few days off at the beginning of the month for wine tasting in Santa Barbara... Not too big of a deal, right? Well, now there's an unexpected trip to Hawaii with the bf... (31st through the 4th).

    The thing is, I feel bad bitching about it since these are all luxury things... They're all just unexpected. I have various DR appts lined up inbetween my usual working days next week so I can't pick up any shifts next week... I can work over the weekend but that's the only time I see my bf and weekends suck... That leaves the following week... but I can only pick up one extra day since it's my bf's birthday and I'd told him that I'd take it off... GAH, and my regulars are going to be all pissed about me leaving town for a week. Oh, and there's a class at the college I'm taking that starts on the 23rd so I'm going to miss a class (just one) because of the trip. Should I just not go on the trip? I'd already told people that I would!

    Am I overreacting? I'm just so STRESSED about all of this!

    EDIT: Oh yes... and the $1300 I'm out this month for the cost of that class...

    If you think school is hard, try being stupid.

    i know how you feel.. i got a new car, moved to a nicer apartment, and then bam i got my dui and quit my club. im at a new club but i definately don't have as much money and i'm working day to day right now.

    can you reschedule your appointments and try to make them all in one day? or work doubles some days? just remember that it's only one month. and dont stress too much because you know when you're worrying about money its harder to make it.

    I talked it over with the bf and we both agreed that we didn't want to spend the money but that we'd take another (cheaper) vacation later.

    Stress levels... returning to normal.

    One of my friends mentioned that I'm a little obsessive about saving money. Heh.
