Over the Hump

Well, this week ended up not being as bad as I feared it could be. I have been slowly releasing the panic I've put myself through.

We made do with a stunningly small amount of cash and bus passes and car-pooling.

:: sighs ::

I feel like I can breathe again.

And, overall, things are looking good for the future.

I should be able to get my car worked on next week.

I took another night at the part-time job so that will mean more coming in next month.

And things are going to get better.

I am going to build a better budget and stop living paycheck to paycheck like I have most of my life.

Spring is coming. The Sun is shining warmly and rain is coming. The snow is only left in icy piles that freeze and thaw, freeze and thaw.

We're looking at doing much more gardening this year and I'm very happy about that.

And I have this weekend off. Praise the Gods!

Life is good, the universe is generous, and I have about me everything that I need.
