Coming down

Over the past few weeks my debt problems have not been a concern, ive been taking steps to calm myself and be in a positive frame of mind.

However today things are different, ive let the meditation really slip, and im annoyed at myself for that.

Also was supposed to be going to a club for a friends birthday but i hugely overspent saturday (day 1 of 2 drinkathons) so i cant go out tonight.

Also cant go out again till ive been paid, which is not a bad thing, but to me it is.

Work is starting to suck, im working several levels below my ability (at least) and im only staying because its good money.

At this moment in time i feel really trapped by my debts and august seems such a long time away!

oh well, i get paid 5 weeks wages a week on thursday so its not all bad news

Gonna go home tonight and relax, concentrate on the good things in life :)

It happens to the best of Us
