Today was a truly bad day.
If the old saying "it is always darkest before the dawn" holds any truth at all, then awesomely bright sunshine should be lighting my life very very soon.
Actually I've had a string of not-so-great days in a row. About 10 months worth so far.
Yesterday, trying to conserve as much as possible, I was attempting to remove spaghetti from the pot w/o draining the water into the sink as I had more pasta to cook. I ended up putting my finger into the boiling water. It still hurts.
Today? I had to turn down a job interview. Why? Because it would have ended up being a choice between my son and the job. My son won that battle (one he didn't and does not know about) hands down, no questions asked. [I wonder sometimes if my older girls know that I made similar decisions for them when they were younger? Probably not.]
There is also an issue with the water bill. Unpleasantness.
It makes no sense to me that I can be this educated and this broke all at the same time. Well, I expected to be broke after law school, but expected to be PAYING my bills and be broke, not the situation I am in.
*huge rumbling sigh*
