Big things, small things, everything is going wrong!!!

November 21st, 2008 at 07:10 pm

Terrible week - just combination of disappointments!

I found out that I cannot take that exam - the position, besides requiring 2 foreign languages (which I have) required fluent French. And it is not one of my languages. All my other qualifications would have been perfect.
So there goes my best career chance.

I finally saw an apartment that satisfied all of our needs, was in our current area, and the mortgage would have been close to what we pay in rent. (that just does not happen in Brooklyn). And it was nicer than a place we live now. I was in love!
I called the agent and just now found out it is sold. It was the first time I saw anything I was so sure about(something that made financial sense) since I started looking years ago.
I feel like I lost "our apartment". Frown

My aunts cancer has started to grow again. Surgery is now out of the question.
Her husband is still unemployed and her cobra is going to run out.

I am getting sore throat.

DH had to cancel his business trip and won't make platinum in hotel stays this year.

Boss had to cancel his business trip (1 hour before leaving) and will stay here (more work).

DH got a parking ticket judgment.

I seem to have lost few hundred dollars worth of transit checks.

I missed my train and was late half an hour today.

I am getting depressed.

    that sucks. Life happens. It slows you down. Here's hoping next week is better.

    What things have been going right? Once I start to focus on the bad things...I tend to notice more of the bad. Same can be said of the good things!! Best wishes.

    I hear ya', my week has been tough too. I hope you'll be able to count your blessings as creditcardfree suggests and enjoy your Thanksgiving week next week. Things will improve (for both of us!).

    So sorry...I hate when a bunch of things hit at once. As my doctor told me, it's just a bunch of fluke occurrences, happening close together. It doesn't add up to anything too terrible...

    Except your aunt and uncle...very sorry to hear about their troubles.

    Things will look up, eventually! Hang in there.

    I'm so sorry things are rough right now. Blessings to you and your family with your aunt.
