Hi everyone,
Well, things are not getting better in my life in general. Woke up with a 103 fever and think I have the flu! Couldn't go to work today. Made calls from home and a potential sale that I really thought was going to buy said he was going to pass! I can't believe the way things have been going against me in my business life. I sent out 20 resumes, including jobs that I'm more than qualified for and haven't got one call back, not one. I never have had this much trouble finding a job in my life.

On a positive note, my W texted me today. She is upset because her dad is doing really poorly and she asked if I would keep D14 this weekend. I told her I was sick but I would be willing to have her stay with me. She said that D14 is supposed to go to the football game tomorrow night and her first date on Saturday! Thing is I'm in no shape to drive her around so far from home. W texted back that she will be upset but what she doesn't realize is that W's dad is close to dying and that she really needs to see him now. D14 will just have to realize this and "adjust". Man, talk about no sympathy for D14! I just think my W is so stressed out about her father. A big reason for her MLC there for sure.

I tell her that D14 is just now starting to be interested in boys and they tend to get a bit myopic and selfish. We went through the same thing with D19 at the same age. So, I tell W that she needs to do what she thinks is best with her dad (added how sorry I was he was doing so badly) and I will take her if she thinks it best. So, a little bit ago she texts asking how my fever is. I tell her it's still high after taking advil and how I hate being sick. She texts back that she is going to the store and asks if I need anything! Uh, is this the same person who left me with no money and late bills? So, I text back my thanks and tell her that if she wanted to get something for D14 while she was here it would save me a trip. I'm out of fruit and snacks and didn't expect her to be coming so soon. I also ask for a box of tissues as I've run out from my sickness. She texts back she would be happy to do this. Later she asks if D14 might get sick from me and I said that I didn't know but she is young and I'll give her a lot of sppace while she is home.

This is the nicest she has been since she left. In fact she has tried to be aloff it seems most of the time when dealing with me. Nice of her and I guess it's because I'm helping her out but I'll take it. As long as I don't get my car repo'd and then I'm in trouble! I tried to call my parents yesterday and today and I can't reach them. I hate to do it but I may ask for help. They don't have a lot of money but I will pay them back if it's the last thing I do!!

So, still broke, now sick but my W is being decent. I guess I'll take what I can!
