5 Year Journal Day 271

      Today's prompt is "Do you handle rejection well?" No.

     It is now 4:25 a.m. here. I have been up for more than an hour. I have been trying to figure out how I could make it without depositing the stimulus check, but I wasn't successful. I did deposit the check. I need the money. I am flat broke. I am worse than broke. I am in debt. I thought I could get alot done with the $1200 I got, but it sure did not go far. I owed money to my Aunt Lisa for letting me borrow money while I waited for the stimulus check. She was the first person I paid. That was a big chunk of the check. Then I had to make sure that my bills would get paid on time without problems. I also had to save some money to buy the central air conditioning maintenance plan for the year that I always buy. Last, but not least, I had to buy Bella's food, treats, and medication. 

     Yesterday I woke up and did my morning routine, but I was tired, so I went back to bed. I slept until about noon. I got up for a few minutes, and went back to bed. I got up again around 3:30 or so. I made myself a bowl of salad and slowly woke up. I decided we needed to go to Walmart for groceries, so we went. I bought things needed to make taco fajitas for dinner. I had already thawed out the ground beef. My tooth was bothering me. Without the temporary crown it hurts. It is highly sensitive. I can even feel the air when I breathe through my mouth! 

     I bought some tooth pain ointment and tried it. It made it hurt alot more! WTH?! 

     I made taco fajitas for dinner and it was awesome. I took my medications, and waited for Caleb to eat to give him his medications. I fed Bella chicken livers and veggie mix with her kibble, and everybody was happy. 

     I had things I needed to get done yesterday that I did not get done. I hope to work on them today. One of the things is to email my travel pay vouchers to the VA for all of last week's appointments. I need the money badly. I wish they would hire more people to process payments so that the wait to be reimbursed was not long. I mean they are as far back as November payments! WTF?

     The other thing is to dispute the charges from Verizon that they are billing me for.

     Then there are the charges from NHRMC that have not been resolved.

     I have an appointment on the VA schedule for Tuesday that is not in my phone calendar, and I have no idea what it is for. I need to call them on Monday and find out where I am supposed to go. 

     Caleb managed to stay out of trouble by going to take Bella for a walk to the park. I wish he would take initiative and pick up his trash inside the house. That is likely what we will work on today. I have to get his socks washed too. 

     I forgot to buy printer paper and glue while I was at Walmart. I might have to go back today or tomorrow. I can't be without the ability to print. 

     I had to buy sage incense sticks because I ran out, and it is part of my cleaning ritual that I like to do before I clean around the house. 

     I feel like I am forgetting something, but I don't know what it could be. I think I had more things I was supposed to do yesterday but didn't get to. I hope I remember when I start working today. 

     I took my iron pill and orange juice when I got up the first time , earlier this morning. I guess I am ready to go read or do a meditation and go back to sleep.
