Lord but I’ve been ass deep in panic this morning. What you say? But Zelda! It’s only 9:30 in the morning! What could possibly—
MONEY!. BANKS!. SUCK!.
Our precious little Kikimama cost me more money than I had available. But knowing I had a little time between the mortgage hitting and those debits, I was going to transfer out of my money market account. Oh well. That transfer takes ten days miss. FUCK. So then I remember I have an ATM for that account which I have never used. PIN number anyone? oh hell no. So I go dig thru piles of paper and VOILA! I find it. Drive to the bank, attempt the retrieval. NOPE. Wrong number. So I just pull over into the parking lot and call them up for the ohhhhh fourth time this morning. Well, the PIN number I have is not for the card. it’s for the account itself. Fuck. Around. “I will be glad to send you a reminder in the mail. it’ll be there in a week.”
riiiiiiiight.
So my other option is to do a wire transfer. I will have to download paper and print it off. None of which I can do at home so will do it at work. Then fill out said paper and fax it to the bank and get my money tomorrow.
CALGON TAKE ME AWAY!!!!!!
Mom however, came to the rescue. She’s wire transfering me the $ today, and I’m going to wire it directly to her account hitting tomorrow. Thank GOD. Just wears me smooth fucking out this money shit.
I wasn’t going to do a list this year. But clearly, I need focus on things to focus on. That being at the top. I must MUST get organized within my finances and bills and the way I operate within all of that. Files. Paper in proper places. Reciepts in something other than EVERYWHERE. Get taxes done…
speaking of. Gert alerted me to this new homeowners tax credit of up to $7500.00 that I am qualified for. Thing is, the payback is what scares me. After two years, the government starts taking it out of your refund 500 bucks at a time. Well. What if I have to pay??? Gah. I’m looking for a good tax person/accountant to help me with this big tax thing this year. The new house, the reciepts, I’ve made more money than previous years so I believe I can itimize or some such…I’m ready to tackle that. next week.
I was going to weigh in this week, back to program however I have appointments. I could have gone to weigh and leave today, but I want to stay and listen to what’s new this year with the whole Momentum Program thingy. Alas. next week. My eating was pretty good yesterday, though! I haven’t completely shut down due to ingesting vegetables!
The redhead is in South Beach. His hotel room is bigger than the Blue Banana! The shower itself sounds like Mecca. I told him to take pictures. Beachfront….ahhhhh. Here’s hoping everyone can escape to the beach a little today. have a little mental vaca. I’ll bring you a frothy drink with an umbrella in it!
Huzzuah and Halakaleem and Thanks MOM for saving my ass. Big as it is, once again.
Misti Ridiculous 
Oh Christ on a whole wheat crutch money IS the root of all evil. So sorry. But yay you for sticking it out until you got it solved!

You are very important to me and have been since conception. I never want you to hurt or stress, but can’t shelter you from life’s hurts as much as I want to. You are the light, the laughter, the pride of my soul. God is in control…I laid my checkbook in his hands today and said once again, “It IS YOURS.” We will make it when we have each other. Much love and don’t worry. Give Kikimama lots of love and be careful giving that medicine…Sounds like she was really mad.Love you, Mamo
