and it has to last me till Sunday! We have over $2000 worth of reimbursable receipts that were due MARCH 10, and I still haven't even MAILED our report. In fact, I haven't even finished it. I am, in fact, typing a POST about it here while I should be doing it.

Do you think there is a disease for this? :p It would really make me feel better about myself than just admitting that I'm 30 years old and terribly irresponsible.

Plus, I lost my credit card. Somewhere in the house, I'm sure, since I've been watching our account and nothing has gone through since I used it last. But I can't report it because ummm, we're still waiting on our BACKUP credit cards to get over here from the states {totally not my fault those had to be replaced} and can't live without a credit card, especially with $37 in our checking account.

Sigh, and did I mention that I've had a headache for FOUR days and my husband came home from his week long trip in a rotten mood {11 hours on the mountain roads of interior Borneo will do that for you}. And every time I walk it feels like someone is pounding my head with a mallet.

Okay, feel free to shower pity on my sad, sick, irresponsible self. And yell at me a little for being on the boards instead of finishing that stupid report.
 
awwww, poor Kellie! :( Hugs, sweetie. Hope your headache goes away soon. I don't think you have a disease, cause if you do... I, myself and a whole bunch of peeps I know have one too. So don't worry and get some rest.
 
Well maybe the report is causing your headache? Get it done quick and then you can relax a little. Stress never helps headache.

Feel better soon Kellie! Big hugs!
 
Ooohh...I'm so sorry about your acct bal and your headache. I tell you what - get your report posted and then come back and let us know when it's done!
 
Awww my poor poor friend!
I would shower you with hugs if you were closer and I would sweep Jack and Max away so you would have some napping time, and I would scour your house high and low for that danged credit card!
I'm sorry your day is sucking the big one!
I still love ya lots.
 
Um yeah I have that same exact disease lol! I've been needing to send off the mail in rebates on our new cell phones for a month now! It's only $100 total (not $2k thank goodness) but still I could buy a lot of SSD goodies with that money! Hope your headache goes away soon & you find that darn credit card!
 
Yeah, count me as one with that same disease...

Sorry your day is sucking. I hope the CC magically appears and the headache goes away.
 
I'm sorry :( You know I had headaches like those before. My dr said they are stress headaches when they are on the top of your head. They are very painful. I feel for you.
 
Hugs to you girly! Hope things get better for you

on another note: I WISH my credit card would go missing. . . .it would deter me from spending!!! LOL
 
Great news! It only took me an hour and a half to finish it up. Now I just have to sneak it out of the house and get it mailed without Joel seeing.

This is not how I dreamed my adult life would be lived.
 
Thanks for your support, girls. I did manage to sneak it out of the house and to the post office, but would you believe I was THREE DOLLARS short and couldn't mail it. That's right...I don't have enough money to get money. :(

And the headache is worse. I went to the dr, who said it's from my sinus infection, but it's NOT a typical sinus headache. It's like sharp shooting pains all over my head and medicine doesn't help. Anybody have headaches like that?
 
I have those kind almost everyday but mine are caused by twin 5 year olds!!!! (LOL J/K) But seriously, it sounds like stress may have a bit to do with it and nothing helps but getting rid of the stress ( ya right!!!! ) So I suggest you just take some time to yourself whenever you can and sit and relax..Even if it is only a few minutes at a time it helps a bit!!!!!
 
I can totally relate! I lost my CC almost 2 years ago and still haven't reported it! Call it procrastination, but without it I'm not charging anymore to that account. DH is doing a good job of that :) So that alone is enough for that account!

It's hard getting anything done when you're not feeling good and DH's mood is not helping either! Hope you feel better soon - and that DH cheers up so he can give you some support!
 
*hugs* I totally know where your coming from! Currently my husband is only working 3 days a week and has all of spring break off. The work force is not doing well here. So we scrimp and save and sell stuff we really dont need LOL I just sold our ps2, guitar hero & singstar last night a computer desk LOL
We've also started jars where when we get money it gets alloted into the jars and once the money is gone its just too bad. The house payment and monthly bills come first. Then groceries and we only put about 10$ a month in entertainment, save money for Christmas & birthdays. Last year we paid cash for all Christmas and it was so nice not having to pay christmas off after christmas. We don't do cc anymore LOL Also I have about 10$ in my paypal and i am spending it, then closing down my paypal account. I'll start a new one when things are better off but I have lots of digi stuff and through great ct's I can keep up with by hobbie without taking anything away from my family. that turned into a long post! HAHA
 
I've been there with the stress headaches and I'd say that is definitely playing a part in your headache. I also had sinus infections and had surgery for it, so I know what those feel like. Sounds to me like you've got a combo platter of both going on.

Dealing with that is easier said than done, I know. I hope things get better for you soon, and in the meantime, don't beat yourself up over things you can't control right now. What's happened has happened and you will get through this. We're all only human, we make mistakes, and we can only do so much. {{{{{{{{HUGS}}}}}}}}
