March State of the Bill
Mar. 8th, 2015 22:14I'm pretty much falling asleep where I sit, so this will be a little more terse than usual. I want to write though. I've got stuff that needs to come out.
I've been sick now (again) since about Thursday, bad enough to be miserable but not bad enough to lay me out. It's moved out of my head (mostly) and into my chest, where the cough does nothing but make my head pound. Katie's sick from both ends - wondering, was it that muffin she had for lunch? - unable to keep anything down, even Sprite. Michelle is on day four or five of a migraine, and she's back to taking percosets which completely fuck her up. Jami is the only one of the family who is more or less normal.
We got letters from the IRS announcing their intention to put a lien against our property, garnish wages, etc. My hope is we can make enough progress with the bankruptcy over the next few days to forestall that action. Between day job and side work/commitments, Michelle has to take care of most of that, but she's having difficulty coping emotionally and, to be brutally honest about it, I've lost confidence that she can handle it at all. With Katie sick, Michelle's mom can't come help her, so I may have to take the project away from her. I don't want to, can't afford to, really, but might have no choice. We don't have time for this shit.
Seamlyne is packed with orders right now, and I'm not making the kind of progress I need to to keep it going on time. Must push harder.
The day job, for once, is the least stressful thing about my life. We're not rolling in the dough like we thought six months ago we might be by this time, but things are stable and trending in the right direction. That's a blessing.
