money probs…
Here are the facts:
- I own a place in DC.
- I adopted my sister’s daughter Drea in September on a temp to perm basis, it was all uncertain at the time.
- I moved to Silver Spring to give my neice a better education.
- I had to find a subleter for DC condo and then find a place in Silver Spring within a week of inheriting aforementioned neice.
- I found a place in desperation that was cheap, centrally located, within a good school district.
- Drea left and I had to break a lease.
Here are the financial ramifications:
- Subleter of condo leaves Jan 1.
- I need to find someone to take over my lease.
- If I don’t find someone, I have to pay 1300 dollar fee and can’t move out until Jan 26th, so I pay double rent for month of January.
- I owe my subleter 1000 bucks for deposit.
Worst case scenario: 1185 for January rent of silver spring place, plus 1000 dollars deposit, plus 1300 dollar fee for breaking lease.
TOTAL: $3385!!!!!!!!!!!!
best case scenario: I find someone to take over lease in the next week. I leave for Texas on Dec 20th. I need to have them fill out application, get approved, then I notarize/sign and then they notarize sign agreement to take over lease. Then they move in and pay me 300 bucks for deposit and rent for Dec 20th-Jan 1 (since I already paid for it)
likely scenario: I pay big time.
I also took 1000 dollars out of my pay check this year pre-tax to save money on medical expenses and I don’t have enough bills racked up so now I have to find some way of making up the difference by Dec 31st. I may end up stocking up on emergency contraception, which is 45 bucks a pop. hmmm.. 1,000 dollars worth of Emergency contraception is 22 packs. Maybe I can start an underground clinic?
Oh well!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Oh and to add insult to injury I have 2 people looking at my place in 20 minutes and I just obliterated a bag of popcorn in my microwave–black ooze all over the place… and the entire place, no, the entire building smells like charcoal…

Good writing and nice photos. I’m lost on the contraception stuff. Is this an allusion to something else or did you, in the midst of this crisis, actually buy birth control with the thinking that you’ll have time and money to have sex despite all you’ll have to do to just keep treading water now? Sincerely, best of luck to ya.

Isn’t finding time to have sex like finding room for Jell-o?

risking is taking chances.if ur life ever going 2 change 4 the better.you’ll have 2 take a chances.
for risk-taker,the world becomes full of posssibilities.
i’ve been in lot of problems specially financial,u know money is the main problem of everyone!but u know money can solve your problem but money cant buy your real happiness.
i beleive that your kind of person that true to your self and strong enough to face all the troubles or problems…
good luck!

Thanks to all! To respond to everyone.
MikeL-THe birth control purchase has yet to happen but it’s a quick answer to finding a way to spending 1000 bucks on meds by Dec 31. I would use them throughout the year or something…
Nikki–There’s always room for J-E-LL-Oh!!!!!!! And sex. and sex in jello…
zak–it is short. I’m trying to savor it but also not rack up a lot of debt in case life isn’t short and I end up living until I’m 88 years old and forced to enjoy it with cat food as sustenance!
Maritess–we take risks, but there also has to be planning for the future, just in case! That said,
THANKS ALL FOR THE WELL WISHES… I blog for my sanity and you help prop it up!

Hi!
Every individual has their own share of problem. Just count all the blessings. Yours is just passing. Try to understand that more than 80% of the world’s population are living in hunger and tribulation.
With what you did to others, God will reward you with His grace.
You may not have it right away, it may not be in the form of money but it will come your way.
Continue to have courage.

Financial problems are the same all over the world *wink* (I just got through mine a few weeks back)! From your writing, I can see that you are a very strong person. Someday you’ll look back at all these and just laugh. I wish all the best for you and your niece. Someone up there is watching! Keep your head up and you’ll get through all these.
