Feeling hopeful

Well, I am feeling somewhat hopeful. I appreciate the food suggestions and have taken them to heart! I am determined to keep my food budget in check!


I have been having problems with the internet connection in my house. My roommate doesn't get the service in his room. I was thinking I would need to buy an expensive signal booster, but my friend told me the easier way is to just move the router upstairs. It will have to go in my room but its better then spending extra money for it! That means a little more snowflake money then I thought!


This weekend is shaping up to be fun! I am going to a friends cottage. I have $60 left until wednesday so I think I should be able to keep within budget.


Finally I have decided I need to put my health first. I have been battling fatigue for sometime now and have had a whole host of other symptoms. I'm not entirely sure what the cause is, but I have my suspicions that its some form of anxiety or depressive disorder (both run in the family). I got the number for my employee assistance program and am hoping that they will be able to help me out! I am sick and tired of being sick and tired! I am only 27!! I shouldn't feel like this, lol.


I hope everyone is well and has a great weekend!

Glad to hear that you are feeling better and having a positive outlook.


I have panic attacks myself and stressing over bills certainly doesn't help.

Bex,

You absolutely did the right thing by contacting the EAP! You need to put you and your health as the priority, otherwise you won't be in any shape to be a positive asset to your loved ones.

Several years ago I used the EAP when I felt like I was about to burn out from stress and it really helped me a lot.

Have a great week-end!
