Moms always say that if you don't take care of yourself you will get sick, or if you leave the house with wet hair. Well, I always wore a hat to school if I took a shower in the morning.
What I haven't been doing is taking care of myself. Over the past few days I've been at work for approximately 10 hours each day. In that ten hours I have definitely not drank enough water, put on enough sun screen, or eaten enough healthy food. I did, however, pound an amazing amount of chocolate covered almonds. Well my hair is platinum blond now and my skin is super dark, and I feel like shit. Who gets a cold during the summer?

Take a moment
Take a moment and think about something that is making you happy right now. I smile as multiple things come rushing through my mind that make me happy. I just got off the phone with James because I was freaking out about my bank account balance. Pretty much slim to no money in there right now. I was checking out at the vet and the total came up to be $200. Two hundred dollars? Really? Holy crap. Jackson is having an allergic reaction to something, so along with his Parvo, Lime, and Rabies vaccine, this boy just racked up a huge bill.
I took a few days off from work recently, and since I am paid hourly now that really affected me. I know the season is going to pick up really soon and I will be working a ton of hours, but right now it is really hitting me hard that I am so broke. Of course, being me I started to get really upset, plan out my whole next months worth of bills and freak about my school loans that are going to start rolling in this August.
Take a deep breath. I just happened to click on my sisters blog and it instantly made me feel so much better. Read that, it will make you feel better too. So then I sat here and thought of something that makes me really happy. I came up with a bunch. My great friend Patrick Ryan called me at 6 this morning while he was on his way to work and I was on my way to yoga. He knew I had been having a rough time the previous day and wanted to catch up. Alianne Tracey dropped everything to skype with me yesterday for 45 minutes and I burnt 3 out my 4 batches of cookies during our conversation. Jackson is the most kick ass dog in the whole world. I live with these 2 amazing girls now, on a lake, in an awesome house.
Look at what great things I am being surrounded by, even just at this moment! So I am offering up my low balance in my bank account to the universe and I know it will work out. I'll get my next paycheck before my rent is due, and our summer rental will be worth every penny that I am spending on it. I will not starve to death. I have clothes on my back and a roof over my head. I have a garden outside that I just planted and I have more than enough things to do at home to occupy my mind/time.
That was the last vet visit for an entire year hopefully. He has his rabies vaccine so we can finally go to the dog park if we want. Not that Jackson needs a fenced in area, he likes to be crazy all on his own.
Phew I need to take three more deep breaths. I am so happy in life, I need to chill out about the money stuff!
