I think I realized why, exactly, I don't take days off like this too often.
I'm brooding. And unfortunately, things being what they are around here, I've got plenty to brood about.
It's the 22nd of the month--8 more days til payday.
I have $27 in the checking account.
The 'ho is still in the shop; although the worst of the problem is apparently covered by the warranty (the rear differential, at $1300 installed) we still need a new battery, a new taillight assembly, and new front brakes. Along with the deductible on the warranty, this all comes to $350.
The car note is due the first of the month. Between that and the repairs, LJ is now officially broke. Because the car is in the shop, it's hard for him to do what he does to make money.
That leaves next months' bills, and all the bills that didn't get paid THIS month because we didn't have the money.
The fridge is empty-ish, aiming towards empty. We are out of potatoes and out of onions. (2 major staple-foods around here.)
This is NOT good.
