Depressed. I feel so down today that I want to leave work, go home, get in bed, and cry until I fall asleep. Let's see what it bothering me today:
1. My car is in a terrible state of disrepair and my tag has expired plus my insurance has lapsed. It's going to cost me almost $200 to re-instate my insurance policy, $173 for my tag, and I owe the state an $85 fine for lapse of vehicle insurance coverage. So what's the problem? My tires are so bare that I could have a blowout driving across the street, but I have to get new tires, a front end alignment, and get my emissions inspection. All in all, I'm looking at about $700 I have to figure out how to obtain before the middle of next month.
2. The company I work for isn't doing so well. In fact, I didn't even get paid today because we didn't get enough money in from the people who owe us. I don't have a dime to my name because I live paycheck to paycheck. I owe money for my phone bill and an outstanding debt I have plus my credit card payment. Unless things pick up, we may have to close the business in the next two months which leaves me jobless and with no college education. I make just enough to live on my own and if I lost my sole source of income, I have nowhere else to live. I have no trade. All I know how to do is front office work, which most companies here require a two year business degree before they will even consider you for employment.
3. I am expected to sing at my church's Christmas Eve service, but I can't afford to purchase a singing track because of the last-minute financial set-backs this month. I'm also afraid that my sinuses will not clear up by then. I'm having difficulty speaking, let alone singing a song.
4. My sister and I have a horrible relationship. It seems like we're always fighting. No matter how hard I try, things never get better because she's always so bitter and angry.
5. It's the Holidays and everyone around me has someone they love they're sharing them with. I am content being single, but times like these I feel lonely.
I know these seem like such selfish concerns, but I'm sad, lonely, and worried about my financial situation. I just want to crawl in a hole until things get better.
