Alright folks, the title says it all.
I need some love and support and someone to tell me it will all work out and we'll be okay.
I've been in a funk all day. I've been tying to work on stuff around the house and feeling like I am steadily getting NOTHING done no matter how much I do. It's exhausting and I am just so frustrated with myself. I feel like I'm constantly doing something but somehow the place ends up messier than ever and I just feel like there are more things added to the To Do list everyday.
Money has been another big issue on my mind lately (yes, I know, welcome to life), what with the house and the never ending list of things that need to be done. We were doing okay until I found out that one of our central air units died. The estimate to replace it is $3,100.
Frankly, we just don't have it right now to waste on an AC unit. Good bye any hope of a vacation next year... that savings account just turned in to the AC fund for next summer.
Then, we got this lovely notice in the mail that we have 2 tax bills due within the month. And they ring it at the sum of $2,400. *kick to the ribs* But wait, aren't all our taxes escrowed in with our mortgage payment? Why yes, kind reader they are. We'd already built in over 6k in taxes to our monthly mortgage payments, but somewhere along the line the genius bank/title company missed the fact that the acre and a half we bought is actually 3 separate lots (WTF?!) and they only factored in taxes on ONE lot (the house so of course it's crazy high). So as if our taxes weren't expensive enough already I now have to find half this new tax money in oh... the next week.
*yanks out hair*
AND THEN, Jim comes home and informs me that the MAIN ac unit is also no longer working. *slams head on desk* So now we get to call the HVAC guy out again and hope that this unit can be repaired instead of replaced... or else I'll be selling a kidney on the black market to pay for it. July and August in CT is too hot and humid to go without any kind of air conditioning.
So yeah... I'm in a mood.
