I am so broke :-(

Posted by sleepygirl on August 1, 2005, at 23:13:47

I'd just like to say that I am so out of money, or rather carrying so much debt that I don't know what the heck I'm going to do. It's a good thing I don't have anyone else to support because I've not done such a great job of taking care of me.

I just don't know...I don't think I've been living luxuriously, but the little things in life have racked up the debt, you know car repairs, books, school, not making any money while in school so having more debt, not to mention therapist and psychiatrist and medications. Thank goodness for health insurance or I would be incredibly screwed.

So I've been looking over my budget for what I can cut, and I think hmmm, therapy, psychiatrist, meds-can I live without that? and I think "NO WAY!"-these things just might be essentials. I don't know if anything else can work out without me having some degree of emotional stability.

Anyway I wrote this post just to get the anxiety out. I wish you all much fiscal happiness.

I don't know if it helps any, but I think students are *supposed* to be broke. It's part of the education.

I just wish I could convince my daughter.

We've been married 7 years and this has been the first year of our marriage where we haven't had to trust God for every bill.

We literally lived paycheck to paycheck (actually, that is being optimistic). We aren't even near being wealthy (remember my husband is a pastor, LOL), but I can say we have all our needs met with a little tiny, bit set aside.

I'm also blessed to say (thank you Lord) that we are currently living 100% debt free!
