Geo and his phone
Today was the last day that Geo could have gotten a cheap cell phone to replace his. We go to the Verizion store and he picks out a phone, gets it all set up. In the car on the way home he decided he didn't want that phone anymore. So I have to call Verizion and tell them to cancel the order. I do that and now Geo is back to using his old phone. All that drama for nothing. Oh well.. better than him getting over his head on bills. He already has the car insurance and rent to pay, plus installments for his new camera. I'm so glad he doesn't have a credit card. I'm glad I don't have a credit card. I can't be trusted with them. Maybe in a couple more years when I'm more stable I can get one, but for now I know I can't be trusted with one. That's the reason I'm being sued. Credit card debt sucks. Not as bad as student loans, but still sucky.
I've been eating less because I'm not hungry and I'm having problems getting over 1,200 calories. I was drinking Ensure for vitamins and calories, but I'm out. I ate like 1,100 calories yesterday and I gained half a pound. It has to be water weight. My scale battery is dying and I need a new one. I just don't know how much it will cost. Aldi, the grocery store we go to, has a body fat scale for $16. If the battery is going to be more than $5 then I will just get the new one. I'm thinking about getting it anyway. I don't want to spend too much, though... I owe Geo money so I might be a bit short this month. I also want to stock up the car fund. We have been taking from it so much lately... it's really low now. I want at least $1,000 in there, so I have to put in $100 a month for the next 6 months (it's at 400 now). *sigh* I hate money issues.

money issues, they can ruin your life and it is so depressing and anxiety ridden. you are smart to not have a credit card, I too get carried away with them, I have 1 left and I have got it rather high now. I am sorry you are being sued, that stinks. there never seems to be enough money and I applaud you for finding a way to put the money away for the car, you can do it! hugs!!
IT\'s great that you\'re planning ahead and have a car fund. I applaud you for knowing you are not responsible to have a credit card. Sorry about you being sued. I hope all works out with that.
love your high finance larissa. at least you live within reality. soooo many people just buy like crazy all on credit and then declare bankruptcy every five years or more. then get all new credit cards. pay them. do the same thing again, and then declare bankruptcy on all of that. its their life style. they drive newer cars and live nicely and don\'t care at all that they do that. though even that is better than the people who steal as their way of life. and on and on and on it goes.
you are real.
you can buy off your own credit card debt for \"pennies\" on the dollar. there is an article about it on line. you can declare yourself a collection agency by registering as a business and buying it. its legal. or simply call and make a deal. if you purchase your own debt, its worth it because you won\'t sell yourself to other collection agencies nor add interest.
My main problem is student loans.. $100,000. You can\'t bankrupt those away. I\"m in default but there\'s nothing I can do.. I don\'t make enough money to pay them and keep a roof over my head.
