Ugh. That’s all I have to say this morning.
My husband and I have been working our asses off lately trying to get caught up on our bills. Doing door dashing in every spare moment we have, trying to squeeze every workable ounce out of a day.
Last night, it was a pretty horrible storm here. Flash flood warnings constantly, down pouring for hours. So, a day where everyone orders things to eat, and a good day to work door dashing.
This morning, we woke up to a flat tire. So while we made $80 last night in the 4 hours we worked, we now have a $300 expense as a result. And we literally don’t even have that to spend on replacing it! All that money already went to our bank account, which was over drafted, to prevent more fees from incurring.
I’m so frustrated I could cry.
Adding me onto Derek’s insurance at work was the nail in the coffin for us. It added another $600 bill PER MONTH that we obviously didn’t have to spare. And it’s made a significant impact on us.
Unfortunately, the tires for our car aren’t cheap, and we can’t just use a different brand. Yay for electric cars 😥 normally it’s not an issue, but today, it really sucks.
That’s it, I guess. I’m just venting. And frustrated. Not only do we have to spend money we literally do not have, we only have one car, and therefore cannot even work to make extra money to afford a new tire.
I swear, sometimes it really feels like life just doesn’t want us to get ahead. Or shit, not even get ahead, just catch up!
I’m just so frustrated. And my heart hurts.
I feel defeated.
