I am starting to feel overwhelmed with everything that I have going on. I am working real hard in therapy..that is when he's not sick and I'm not sick...the last 2 weeks he's been sick. I was sick last week and he ended up being sick then I got a call on Monday telling me that he probably wouldn't be there on Tuesday and low and behold nope he wasn't. Then Tuesday I had to call a bill collector to try to make arrangements to pay off what I owe. Well the letter I got stated that I owed $340.11 and I talked to my dad (who manages my money) and we decided that I could afford $25 a month. Well I called the guy who laughed at me and said no way you owe about $700 and I asked him why the letter I got said the other amount and he said I don't know and I don't care you owe the $700 pay up or talk to the judge. I told him I don't have $700 and I'm trying to pay my bill and he said I'm not taking the $25 a month fire your dad and call me back. What good is firing my dad going to do if I don't have the money I don't have the money no matter who does my finances its not going to change. I told the guy that I'm on disablity and going to school. He called me a deadbeat and said I was probably making the school send me a bill too that I'm not going to pay. I told him that I have a scholarship that pays 100%. He just laughed again said pay up or I take you to court. I slammed the phone down and called my dad to tell him what the guy said and started to cry. Those of you that know me know that I HATE to cry and felt like a blubbering idiot. I had taken my accounting test earlier in the day and bombed it. I drew a blank when it came to working the problems. Well dad calmed me down somewhat by telling me we will mail him the $25 and see what happens. If he takes me to court there is nothing the guy can garnish because I have no income..there are no assets so he can't take anything I have.

Well yesterday I had a test in Business Machines and got a 69% but at least I get to take that one over again. Everyone has to take it over again. That's what the teacher gets for sitting at the front of the classroom surfing the web instead of teaching us. Then I got to Database Management and that went well we are starting our midterm project which yesterday just involved building the database..making the table and entering the data. That was easy. Monday comes the hard part when we have to manipulate the data. This weekend I have a conference I have to go to for school. Since I'm an officer I have to go to the Fall Conference which means I won't get to study and I have a ton of laundry that needs to get done and stuff like that.

Can I hear a stop the world I want to get off yell?!

Ditto! Rant away. That guy sounds like a jerk. Sounds like your doing the best you can and going to school too. Good for you. I'm glad your dad can step in and help. I don't know the law that good but I believe that any judge would set a payment schedule that you could manage(which you are doing). You are trying and not walking away from your responsibilty. Maybe that guy needs to get a life. Don't let his ugly soul get you down. You need a Whack-It doll. I saw one once. It looked like a long, skinny and stretched out gingerbread man. He had a neat poem to go with him that was about when you got !@!@##$ off you could just wack it till you felt better.

Thanks guys. I got my accounting test back and got a 70% on it but then no one in the class did good. She went over the test in class and then gave us back the last 2 questions and said if we did them over and got them right we would get points back. So I did them over and I think I got them right soooo that will help. Plus I did the mastery problem and got 4 points for that. So maybe getting away this weekend will help. I am doing laundry now and am getting ready to pack. I am a bit concerned because I don't know what to expect.
