I hope alittle venting isn't minded
I'm just having one of those days...well, week really.
I'm one of those people who worries, probably needlessly about money, how much they have saved especially. This whole month isn't helping
On November 9th, the day we brought home Reeses actually, I started being out of work because of a repetitive stress/overuse problem. This went on until the 27th when I finally returned back to work. The problem was that this whole time I didn't get paid except for one week because my absense has to be approved through two different sources before I get paid. I was actually supposed to get paid for the first 5 days of the absense but work screwed up and didn't give it to me. Finally just this last week I got part of it, I'm still waiting for the rest. I still haven't gotten any of my back pay either from the rest of the absense even though I've been approved for a week. I've been told it can take a few weeks. Great.
To top it off, we've had computer problems at work so I haven't been in most of this week either, so I'm not getting paid for that. Then that coupled with Reeses vet bills, which have totaled about $800 so far not including her initial visit after we got her, and Christmas shopping, has got me really down.
I know I shouldn't be. I've only been married a year and have no kids, with quite a bit in savings (I'm not loaded but I suppose it's alot for someone my age). I have a friend who has a baby on the way and is living paycheck to paycheck. But it's when you haven't put much in in the past few months for one reason or another, and then stuff like this happens. Plus as I said, I'm a natural born worrier anyway, so that doesn't help the situation
