Ever feel like you're in limbo?

[changeyourstars8]

To make a long story very short, Chris and I are having some unexpected problems with the bank when it comes to refinancing the house we used to live in. The check has been delayed-- hopefully we'll get it this month, but we may not get it until March. Which means two more full house payments each month, not long after his paycheck went down due to me going onto his insurance.

We're going to use the house we used to live in as a rental, which will help with the finances, but before we can do that some things need to be fixed up. Where are we going to have to get the money to do that? The refinancing check. Yay.

And I just got the credit card statement and with publishing the book and having to buy the new computer both on there, just . . . nnnnnnnnn.

I tell myself that we're doing fine and if God forbid something really did go wrong, we have families who wouldn't let us starve on the street or anything, but I think it's the not-knowing that's getting to me right now.

It doesn't help that my stomach's felt weird all day-- just hollow, and I've eaten but that hasn't helped-- and I can't get my mind to focus on anything long enough to write. Or do anything else besides sit here uselessly and think of all the things I should be working on. My productivity level for the day = one load of laundry and an lj entry. Sad.

I think what's needed here is the movie Sabretooth. I can distract myself from the self-pitying limbo state by snickering at the special effects and staring at Josh Holloway. ;-)

I'm glad you're feeling better about things today, but I will send some virtual hugs your way anyway...I definitely know how it is to worry about finances!

I watched 'Sabretooth' a few months ago! Definitely one of those movies where you watch it and then think, "I can't believe I gave two hours of my life to that...but actually...maybe I'll just rewind and watch that one part with Josh again...mmm Josh..." and so the precious seconds of your existence pass by. But is there a better way to spend your life than lusting after Josh Holloway? I'm not sure there is! ;-)

So, are you part of the 'Incredibly Happy Sawyer Finally Got a Haircut" club? I am, especially since they didn't get it *too* short...

oh, I wanna join the club! That entire scene was priceless but did you notice-- the point was made that he wasnt hated by others in the group and that point was also made with gin and sun giving ana the fish... so we're already aware of the similarities between Sawyer and Anna-- is this the clue thats gonna lead us to believe theyll end up together?

Blech, I hope not! Ana-Lucia should stay away from Sawyer...he's all mine! Er, I mean, all Kate's?

Well, in my opinion, Ana-Lucia should just stay away from everybody, but then, I'm more than a little biased when it comes to her character. LOL

I was calling it the "Gosh Darn It, Can I Take Evangeline Lilly's Place for Just This Episode, Please?" club, but I suspect it's basically the same thing. ;-)

[mrlzbth.livejournal.com]

I knew I could count on you! But "Just This Episode" is a far too modest wish if you ask me...Lucky, lucky Evangeline! ;-)

[allthelivesofme.livejournal.com]

Yeah, definitely. :-) Now I've got to stick with 'can I replace Kate?', because I can't say 'can I replace Shannon?' anymore.
