Ugh, I am sooooo tired, and I just can't wind down. Working 2 jobs really SUCKS! I had 4 days off all year, I have no time to get things done (especially go to the gym and shed some poundage), and yet I can't sleep a regular night!
You would think the wedding savings would be easier, right?? NOPE! I have no time to cook, so either I don't eat all day, or I order food, which costs money. It's a vicious cycle, and I hate it!
I feel bad venting about miniscule things like this, and I know I should be grateful that things aren't worse, but this is so draining.
We have 5 months to come up with 7k, and that does not include hotel stay, or our mini-moon. Can I just scream?? Would that help?? Or can someone shake a money tree for me? haha
sorry for the ramble ...

Re: EXHAUSTED! (vent)
I completely understand!!!! It's all going to work out - bc it has to!!!!
With food - what if you set some time in the beginning of the week and cook a lot for the rest of the week?? Just a thought.

Re: EXHAUSTED! (vent)
Its ok to scream, im in the same boat as you, except instead of 5 months I only have 4. So i've been panicking and panicking makes me not want to plan, I havent even ordered my invitations bc we just haven't had the funds. We have to do split shifts because we have temporary custody of his 6 year old so I work from 7-3 and he works from 9 to 6 so by the time we get home its usually too late to start making dinner because we dont get home til 7 and Jessica's(his daughter) bedtime is 8 or she will never be up for school in time. , so we order out which not only makes me gain weight but also makes us poor. Did i mention we're a one car family so he uses his lunch break to pick her up from school and picks me up from work and we drop him back off at work which makes us use about $100 in gas for the 5 days alone! I'm praying for a miracle, i'll pray for one for you too hun.
You'll make it through this hun!!!

If I had the time or funds to do grocery shopping and cook all at once, I totally would!

Re: EXHAUSTED! (vent)
awww girly, I feel for you, that was me last year, working 2 jobs. when I got home I had no energy to clean or cook so what I used to do is cook during sunday enough food that would last 2 or 3 days, I also become addicted to lean cuisine
