This morning I woke up and took a shower before work. My car is in the shop, so I was up early to make sure I had enough time to get a ride to work with my roommate.

My shower didn't seem as hot as usual, so I looked in the basement... lucky I did, because the water heater had gone south, and was sending a big puddle all over the floor.

I was 6 hours late to work. I spent almost $4000. I feel a little stupid because maybe I could have gotten this all done myself. Water heaters aren't that expensive. I had two men ready to help me install it. I could have probably figured it out. But I didn't, I just called the guys, and they made it happen in half a day and it's up to code and I didn't have to carry anything up or down the steep steps to my basement/front door.

I don't know. It's really defeating. I thought maybe I could get things taken care of. I thought maybe I could get my debt under control. And then here came 1700 for a car repair. Then another 600. Then 4000 for a water heater. 1000 at the vet. Granted, a lot of this is financed. I have time to pay it off. I have time to maybe get a windfall here or there, to catch up or maybe even come out ahead.

I've sort of got a plan. Sort of. Like I had a plan last year, haha. Oh how that did not pan out.

Finally, I still miss my friend. I think about him all the time today. I wonder if it would be pathetic to reach out saying how much I miss him.
