12/18/11

Sunday morning here. A lot has been going on in my life regarding my car and my mood. I've still feeling depressed with no energy. My car is still in the shop. My sister wants me to come spend a few days with her. No one answers the phone when I call and need them. So, I'll explain below....


Work week went by quickly for me except for Friday, which always seems to go slow. Tomorrow there is a funeral a lot of people at work are going to for one of my boss's dad. He passed away this week. I'm staying behind as well as a few others. I was going to go to pay my respects, but it's so far away and I didn't know the man. I do want to be there for my boss, but someone has to stay behind to man the phones and take calls. Mary is going to stay and take the calls. They thanked us for this.


On Wednesday I went to see my psychiatrist. I told him how I've been feeling and he asked if the upped Amantadine worked. I said barely. What he did is up my Lexapro and lower my Amantadine. He gave me some samples of Viibryd to try if the upped Lexapro doesn't work. I so far haven't noticed an improvement in my mood. He will call me this week or the beginning of next week. I hear Viibryd has something extra in it where it works on a different neurotransmitter as well as seratonin. Maybe that will work for me. It does have less sexual side effects supposedly, so that's a plus.


Thursday I left work at 3:15 and took my car to the Volkswagen dealer to fix my car. The part came in, so they were able to work on it. I thought maybe they could get it done that day, but they said they couldn't. B came and picked me up and I dropped him off at home and took the car home with me. Friday it still wasn't done. He told me that the sunroof motor is what shorted out the comfort control module and if I wanted it fixed the part was going to be $500. He could do that or leave it unplugged. I told him to leave it unplugged. I could fix it later if I even want to. I never use the damn thing. 


Saturday rolls around and I'm just hanging out at home waiting for them to tell me my car is done when they call and say they shorted out the part and have to order a new one. Shit, it's been there for two days already now. They said they would get me a rental car and they would take care of the charges. At least they did that. I couldn't afford to get a rental on my own. I am glad they are providing me with a car. 


Enterprise closes at noon on Saturdays, and it was 11:00 when they called and told me this. I asked if they could drop me off. He said yes, but the driver would have to wash a couple of cars before he came to get me. I called Enterprise to let them know that I was coming and to see if they could pick me up since they do that. They said it would be awhile because they were short staffed. I told them I'd call them back if I couldn't find a ride. I called B and he didn't answer the phone. I called my sister and she didn't answer the phone. No one would answer their damn phone. Finally about 11:30 Volkswagen called and I gave them directions to my apartment and they picked me up and took me to enterprise before they closed. The line was so long, but I was like second. The man behind me was one of those complainers. The finally got me into a car by 12:45. I have a newer Jetta to cruise around with till my car gets done. I really hope they don't find anything else wrong with the car. I just can't afford it. I finally got a hold of B around 1:30 and he'd been asleep the whole time. I went to his house, picked him up, and brought him to my apartment to get his car. I think he went home and went back to sleep. He played World of Warcraft all night the night before. I don't get how he does that all the time. 


I didn't do much on Saturday. I went to TJMaxx and got a couple of martini glasses and mix because I like martinis. I actually made one for myself. I used the mix, but it didn't really taste that good to me. I should have used the schnapps instead. I'll do that next time. I think I went to bed around 8:00. I woke up a few times, but went to bed fairly quickly. I guess my day was tiring to me. Too much going on and trying to rush with the rental car in getting it before they closed.


Today I woke up at 8:30 and played around on the computer till I took a shower. Now I'm back on the computer of course, but have no plans to do anything. Maybe drop off a prescription. Everything costs money when I leave the house. Even if I don't really spend much, I'm burning gas. I'm tired of being poor. Someday I will have some money to work with. I pay child support also. I will only have to do that for 3 more years though so that is good. He's 15 now. I wish his dad wasn't such a loser. He was on unemployment for 2 years and he finally got a job to only work 2 weeks out of the month. I think he will always be that way. He could have gone to school while he was on unemployment. No, he didn't, he was being lazy and stubborn. I don't see how he can live off what he makes and even off the unemployment. It's beyond me.
