Didn't get the air conditioning recharged in the car.
The guy wanted to do more than I requested so I just left.
Went and got an oil change done.
Came home and called the insurance company to put coverage on the Caliber.
Laid down for a nap thinking I could achieve two hours of sleep maybe and was listening to a documentary on the "horrors" of the holocaust as those types of things usually allow me to relax and dose off.
Didn't sleep even for a minute though and got back out of bed at noon.
At least I wasn't up running around burning off excess energy seeing as how today looks like it will last 19 or 20 hours.
The incident with preschool this morning went so horrible that my girlfriend has been calling around looking for somewhere else and the only lead she has will be 100% out of pocket.
The kid's dad is not going to pay for anything as he can't even afford a happy meal for his daughter on pay day.
It is what it is though and all I want is for my girlfriend to find child care that fits her needs and her kid's needs.
In other news I'm practically broke having not gotten a paycheck last week and am going to have to be smart with my money until payday comes.
Even when I get paid we will both have to be smart with our money seeing as how we are going on vacation on the 20th.
Hopefully my new credit card shows up this week.
Whirl whirl whirl whirl whirl.
He left at a good time.
Things have only gotten worse.

Good Monday morning everybody.
I slept pretty decent last night but totally forgot to unfuck my schedule for the work week.
Woke up at 6am and saw my girlfriend and the kid off to work and 1st day of preschool.
Everything really quickly went to shit as the preschool apparently was quite unprofessional and ill prepared.
My girlfriend called me crying she was so upset.
Meanwhile I was at home waiting on my friend to show up but he must have been tired after work and I never heard from him.
I checked the oil in the Subaru and it was still low so I dumped in another half quart and drove to the ATM to get out some money.
I have an hour to kill now before more running around.
Tried paying a bill but it's not ready to be paid yet.
Going to drink this coffee and call the insurance company.
6 hours is how far away our vacation is.
A rental will cost us $500 and we don't plan on really driving anywhere once we get down there.
I want to yell at her but it won't help.
Instead I'll drive her around for 6 hours this weekend to prove a point.

Good morning gonts.
Last night at work we got so far ahead that I am not anticipating a busy day.
Woke up this morning and checked car listings but nothing caught my eye.
Paid off my credit card from shopping over the weekend.
Washing some laundry and doing dishes.
Waiting on Amazon to deliver more engine oil for my car.
Might swing by a car lot that I heard may have a Lancer for sale.
I need to do a little work on the computer this morning but literally less than 5 minutes.
Probably going to get all the trash gathered up so that if I find something better to do tomorrow I won't have to do that.
The weather today is suppose to be cool and rainy which I'm looking forward too because the last week and change has been hot and miserable.
Anyone got any plans for today?
How's everybody doing?

Stop Leak Oil Additives?
I've got quite the leak on my hands and was wondering if those stop leak oil additives are just a gimmick or if they actually work.
Sounds like a temporary fix at best maybe...

Fona's Saturday 7-23-2022
I can't remember what all the heck happened this weekend to be honest.
After my last post things just sort of became exhausting both physically and mentally.
I remember we took a stroll over to Dollar General for some Mountain Dews and motor oil.
Then picked up a combination of Thai Food and Taco Bell.
The kid was having a rough time communicating and behaving for a decent chunk of the weekend.
She gets shot down asking mom and has been asking me expecting a different answer.
A lot of screaming in vain.
She starts preschool in a week and hopefully being around more kids her age in a focused learning environment will help.
But Sunday we woke up and went to the park.
Had a really nice lunch at a bar I had never been to.
And then later that afternoon once we all had a nap I drove her to her dad's.
Once home my girlfriend cooked an amazing dinner while I got cleaned up for work the next day.
We went to bed early and I woke up at 11:30 at night to play some video games and finish enrolling in all the insurance and retirement stuff for work.

I just paid of Chell's couch!
Paying it off means I don't ever have to go back to that damn site and think about it again.
Also, it frees up that line of credit so I can go purchase one of those adjustable beds.
I hope it is here in time for vacation.
:)
Imma impress Dolly with my American Express.

Took me a year and a half to pay off that fucking cushion.

401k or ROTH401k
Fuck, I opened both just in case I'm wrong.
I'll split it 6 months heavy on one and 6 months heavy on the other.

401k or ROTH401k
I'm feeling Roth401k because I assume taxes will only go up.
$1500 line of credit.
5% cash back for the first $5000
1% cash back after $5000
Only a $99 annual fee.
Fuck yeah boy.
