Today was such an exceptional day that I had to make an entry that was full and delicious about it.

The days' you are always anxious about, end up somewhat comforting. Tpday was one of those days in along line of days like these for me.

I slept heavy last night after doing the math about my new move, and how much it would cost me. I drove to work and my car was acting up all through, the transmission was jerking and I was almost embarassed on the freeway as I egged on with the jerky volkswagen. I get to work and I ponder, I can't afford to get another car. I can hardly afford this move with what I am making, I am just trying to make a point, to try and establish my independence and also my credit, getting a car and having a new car payment attached to my horde of bills would just make me have to do the dreaded: File for bankruptcy.

So I just left it in God's hands.

As I got out of the car, at the bottom of my tire I saw a penny, a quarter, rough and dirty muddy from the rain. I picked it up to reign instantly hoping it would bring some luck down my way today. As the saying goes, "See a penny pick it up all day long you'll have good luck." I could use some of that.

I must have checked my account balance about a million times hoping for some money to come into it all through a surprisingly slow day. The account balance reduced from yesterday when I checked it a million times as well, the weekends expenses finally withdrawn and my new balance somewhat daunting.

I wish I could come into some money. The costs of moving just keep coming. The washer and dryer lease people are going to check my credit, what else is new, and they are going to charge me for moving it into the apartment and with everything they charge taxes as well.

The high pitch of the day came from calling the electric company and though they had an additional charge for installation or something she mumbled, after checking my credit which surprisingly worked out, I do not have to pay the $100 deposit. This was joy to me because I do not freaking have $100 to add to anything. I was blown away with joy.

And one of our clients, a non whiny one brought us a tray of food (see below)

So that leaves so many other things to deal with, armed with a strong wish for money, free money, a generous loving boss, something to just get me money maybe that quarter times a million of it. I just need to work this thing through. I do.


My day wasn't that great, but to me it was better than I hoped it would be.

American Idol wasn't to bad either. Clay singing Mack the Knife, exceptional.
