I have gone three days without any appreciable caffeine but today I just had to have a latte. I have to work today so I deserve a treat. I drove into town to my favorite coffee shop so I could enjoy my mocha whilst sitting outside with all the tourists and early morning locals. I enjoyed the drink immensely and am currently luxuriating in the caffeine buzz while I slave away at work. I will probably pay later with some irritability but for now I will just enjoy the added serotonin.
Life is really, really hard right now. I think most of my stress is a result of my incredibly difficult financial situation. That is why I am working today; trying to earn some money to pay bills. We were just hit with an additional 15 grand worth of expenses that I was not expecting. Between that, my overdue taxes, legal fees and regular bills, I am feeling completely overwhelmed. I need to come up with an attack plan that will at least help me to feel better about my prospects of paying off my debt.
I try to think of all the things that I should be grateful for but my mood is darkened by my financial woes. I am incredibly fortunate that I have the ability to work more hours to earn more money. But then I feel bad about neglecting my family. Will my kids forgive me?

Salut, David...Just wanted to let you know someone was reading. I've been in moods like you're describing. Finding the way out is different for everyone...but I just wanted to assure you that it's not weird, freaky, nor abnormal. Take it from someone who's been there and respects the darkness...GaP
Thanks for the comment. I have often wondered if anybody read my blog and now I know that at least one person does :-)
