Y7 D165

Up and ready to go to the airport. Car will be here in 2 hours. Traveling on a Saturday. I did this so I could have a day to myself in Disneyland - a full day, tomorrow - but had I known about St Louis, I probably wouldn't have done this to give myself one more day at home. Cest la vie. In less than 12 hours I will be in Disneyland. I only plan to go for a few hours today. Mainly to make sure there's no issues with my annual pass to be honest. Tomorrow I will spend the whole day.

Yesterday was very busy. From laundry to hair dying to repacking to house cleaning to a conference call, I was going non-stop until almost 7pm. I managed to get everything done as well as make the client happy. I also got my expense report and most of my timesheet done. I couldn't finish my timesheet due to some things not being added but that's okay.

I paid bills yesterday too. I did get my Q3 'bonus'. After taxes a whopping $400. Blah. Whatever. I immediately moved money into savings and into B's account. I am proud that I have savings again. That's a huge win compared to where I was 5 years ago. I am not stressing to pay my bills, I am not stressing about going to the park today, etc. The only time I stress is when I want to pay MORE on a bill and I can't quite pay as much as I wanted. Good kind of problem to have.

The kid called me yesterday. The car is having issues. There's where I feel like a bit of a failure. They want $800 to fix everything that's wrong with it, but the car isn't even worth that much. I know most of that is labor and if I were there I wish I could do some myself. I also wish I could just give her $2500 to go buy something new. But I can't because I am useless. I have tried my best not to let her down but lately I feel like I am putting too much burden on her. I could give her my whole savings for a car but then what do I do? I am back to square one yet again?

Great, now I have depressed myself.
