Odd mood

It's true, I'm in an odd mood. Not wanting to do any more work today--not that I've done a lot up till now as it is. And if I can finish this one small job, then I'll be free and clear to tackle another one over the weekend.

I've been breaking out in hives the last couple of days and my chin is broken out and there's little things going wrong with my body. Some of that could be chalked up to getting older, but the hives and stuff--that's stress.

It's money. I'm worried about money. Or, rather, trying not to worry about money, trying not to think about how much I owe and how long it's going to take me to catch back up. Hoping that nothing happens to my mother or my stepfather that would require me to head to Florida on a moment's notice, because I'd have to borrow money to do that.

It will help to get the insurance money for Spike's emergency surgery. As long as I have enough credit to be able to, well, jump on a plane to Florida on a moment's notice or, heaven forfend, if Spike needs another trip to the vet, then I can breathe easier.

And, of course, I need another vacation. A real one. I've been fantasizing about going on a cruise this year. Maybe combine it with another trip to California around the holidays and then take a cruise from San Diego to Central America, going through the Panama Canal and flying back to NY from Miami.

That's not this year. But someday.

And, there, that little flight of fancy? I feel better just imagining it.
