Bills

Bills are so stressful. My VA check still has not came even though I called them last week and told them it has not come. Today is Monday and no VA check. So I’m hoping that it comes tomorrow so we can pay bills because the internet is still down. I hate bills. I wish I was a teenager again or a kid again and didn’t have to worry about grown up stuff or bills. Life as a kid used to be so easy. We had no stress except for grades really. At least I didn’t have stress when I was a kid. I think my parents raised me right. They did a good job and didn’t put too much stress on me. I’m sure a lot of kids had stress when they were younger but not my sister and I. I always thought Donica was the one who was going to go to college but she ended up going a different route. She ended up getting a boyfriend and then getting married and having a child. That’s a good way to go though. She started a family of her own. I now have a family of my own too. And bills are stressful these days. And with my VA check being late it doesn’t help the stress we have at all. It just makes things worse. We have two cars but Deborah’s car is paid off. We paid cash for hers. $4,000 dollars for her Ford Escape. My Ford Explorer is still being paid. I financed it instead of paying it off because at the time I had only $9,000 dollars and my Explorer was $6,000 dollars. Maybe one day I will not have to have the stress of bills. That’s one reason I wanted to go back to school. I went to Woodrow Wilson Rehabilitation Center but that place didn’t seem like enough education. Trust me, I got a lot out of WWRC but I wanted to get my Bachelor’s Degree because that seemed to be the way to go but, now that I’m going for my Bachelor’s Degree it seems like I have more stress on me and I’m not on my anxiety medicine anymore. Bills and stress, that’s life I suppose. Well, I should have learned by now that this is how life is going to be because that is what life is about.
