My sometimes coherent thoughts

Saturday

Well ... another Saturday ... time just marches on.

The child support check I got is just about gone ... after
paying for my car insurance, AAA membership, half the cable
bill, $65 towards the balance of the phone bill, $20 to put
gas in my car, I have only $190 left ... just enough for
this month's school tuition ... but still I have November's
rent hanging over my head and soon the rent for December
will be due.

My father sent my money for my bus ticket so I can join
them for Thanksgiving ... part of me wants to go and part
of me wants to stay here with Harry. Part of me is also
upset that my father can send me money to go there, but he
can't send me money to help me with my dire financial
situation.

I know, I know ... GRATITUDE ... be thankful for whatever
I've got ... I am, don't get me wrong. Nonetheless, it
bothers me ... especially given the fact that all my
efforts thus far have proven fruitless ...

Well, Harry is on his way over. He's taking me out to
dinner again ... for which I am very grateful because I
didn't have the money to go buy anything to cook for
dinner, even though I would have liked to make a home
cooked meal for us ... he's always so profusely
appreciative of my cooking which makes me feel like I can
do something right every now and again.

ok ... signing off for now

God please continue to grant me the serentity to ACCEPT the
THINGS I CANNOT CHANGE, the COURAGE to CHANGE THE THINGS I
CAN and the WISDOM to KNOW THE DIFFERENCE. thank you and
amen
