As I sit here pondering my last insulin pen, I'm thankful it'll last until payday.

It's so hard not to be overwhelmed with anger at the thousands of dollars this MLC or WAW escape my W had has cost us.

Even post BD, I busted my ass to pay off credit charges (like the car I rented in June) and just in the last couple weeks the card has been hammered again. Some of that I'll get back when my dental insurance claims are processed, but some I'm just going to have to make up from a severely diminished budget. frown

Before me is a budget form - one of my tasks is to make the time to finish the Financial Peace course I got for free (a Veteran's Day promo from Dave Ramsey). I first heard Dave on the radio years ago, and have read several of his books. We could have been out of debt and enjoying life years ago - but I can attest to one fact Dave has mentioned time after time - you can't go it alone. If both spouses aren't on board.... mad

I'll get some walking in tomorrow. Have to go into town to get a money order - more cash transfer from CC, too sick I have to get a money order and get it mailed for the tax payment to make it before the deadline. Second deadline - I missed the School District deadline and they sent it on to the county. If I miss this one it could be ugly. And of course each of those deadlines incurred another fee. eek
