I was going to title this “Anxiety is a bitch,” but it’s not even interesting enough for that. It’s just so inconvenient and obnoxious.
Over the last few weeks, I’ve been playing eternal Customer Service Tag with the city power company. Someone got something mixed up at some point and I keep being charged for the wrong units.
I think we got it all worked out today, so that’s good, but it triggered my financial anxiety.
Over the last few years (mostly while I was married), so much of my stress was related to finances. My then-husband was often out of work, so I was always always worried, and it’s so easy to slip back into that panicky survival mode.
On the other hand, I could probably stand to be a little more frugal. It is a fine line that deserves more consideration.
All this to say that I miss blogging so I am going to try to write more and not just podcast all the time.
