feeling poor but rich at the same time

So I say it all the time...I may not have much but I am happy.  And I am...but I would definitely be happier with more money.

Pulled our credit reports today.  No surprises there.  Depressing.  We really need to work on getting our credit rating back up. I just got the reports no scores.  Maybe I should apply for a credit card.  We are so bad with them though...but I guess it would help.

We have zero savings, next to nothing for retirement, no life insurance except for the one policy I have through work.  Maybe I should talk to a financial advisor.  Ha...no money to work with means...well, no money!

We cashed the check from Nicole today.  Gosh that pains me.  I don't want anything from her, but we need the money.  Every item she has ever given me makes me cringe.  Like they all have dollar amounts on them...something I owe her back.  As I sit in the recliner that we paid $20 for.  I want to take it outside and burn it.

Did some gardening today at my moms.  Got some weeds pulled and cleaned things up so Andy can finish the mulch tomorrow or over the weekend.  Next our house?  Lets hope.  I mean its only the middle of June.  No garden for me I guess.

Work all weekend...Andy may go to Pike Friday night to Saturday.  I work til 6:30 Sunday and I was thinking we could have Doug and the kids over for Father's Day.  (So Doug, if you are reading, let me know.  LOL.)  I want Father's Day to be special for him since he is so far away from family right now.  So, we are family...I hope that is how they feel anyway.

No days off again until next Thursday and Friday.  Roger Waters concert the Wall on Thursday!  Really looking forward to it.  I know Brad and Erika are going and I think Debo.  I was thinking about making pulled pork or carnitas or something.  Something that we can just keep in the crock pot and eat before and after the show.  We shall see.

I guess that is all for today...

Things to remember:  feeling poor, back hurting from pulling weeds, andy snoring on the couch, the cool breeze, knowing that I may not have a lot, but I have a lot more than some people
