Frustration (Vent/rant)
a year ago
This is going to be a rant/vent. This is your warning. I'm just...done...frustrated..no more ability to give at the moment. One bill, pulled at the wrong time has fucked us over. The bill was for a doctors visit for my mental health. Being offically diagnosed with ADHD and getting the meds that help me with it. And what a help it has been. But yeah my mental health fucked us over. We have finally got out of the red, but took so long to just get there...i just so angry and upset that both my wife and I have full time jobs...both been at for 10 years for me...and 8 years for her. Which these are some of the more nicer jobs in this town and place. Unless you own or your family owns farm land or stuff you aren't going to be finding better jobs...or have to go back to school for law degree or medical degree.... might could go get a trade of some sort. But yeah..fun times....today is my wife's 40th birthday and we can't afford to do anything for it. I managed to get her a card, and a small icecream cake (Thanks to a teacher appreciation giftcard that was given to me last week. )
Our air condition unit has decided to die on us. It went out wednesday of last week and just now was able to get things looked at. Turns out he compressor has gone out fully... the unit is 30 years old. So we got our money's worth out of it...but I don't have NEW AC unit funds... And I live in the deep south in MS...so WE HAVE to have AC to survive because how hot it gets here. We luckily have a small wall unit in the living room and a small one in the bedroom so its not unbearable yet. GOing to have to go to the bank with the title of my car and see if we can get a loan. But got to have the money to pay it back.
My son's phone has went out. It was going out over the past few months, but now it won't charge at all.. I would have to do a hard restart to get it to come on but now its not even doing that... I could file it on insurance but it said if they didn't feel it was insurable we would be charged for the new phone... which when he first got it (over a year ago) he dropped it in water...and that would be all they would need to say it was water damage and so got to get him a new phone eventually....
I've taken all the commissions I can handle...my wife walks dogs, and pets sits during her lunch break... we both are going to be doing face painting at our local farmers markets starting in June...might make some money there... I was hoping to rest some during the summer break, but I don't think that's going to happen... hell I don't even know if I will get to visit my friend that I was planning on that was part of my christmas gift this year....
Then found out our local college is having to cut programs..their arts and science departments, and many other places...music program being cut.. they are looking at where the fewest students are enrolled...I know why they are doing it but just stinks... the college is a big deal here...and if it goes under it woudlnt' take to long before this place ends up like ever other shit hole in this state....
We have already start looking at new states ... We've made our lists and looked at pros and cons of each..some places is REALLY good place...but IT will cost you and be expensive as hell....or really good place and really harsh winters....but then again i found it humorous from the site i was using I looked up pros and cons of moving to MS ...and there wasn't an article for it.. it was 12 reason NOT to move here..and like 2 pros.....
Sorry for the rant... I just needed to get it out.

Really sorry to hear that hun; that sounds like an extremely stressful situation, and truly hoping that you are doing okay and holding up through all that.

Its not that it;s not the latest or greatest phone...its stopped working ALL together. It started glitching a month or more ago, and has gotten progressivly worse and worse...and now it won't even charge, and I can't get turn on at all even with force restart or get it into safe mode
