Tired of being poor

I wish financial struggles weren’t so exhausting.

While driving from my office to another appointment, I heard a sound when turning. Get to my appointment and wonder why it was so difficult to turn in to park. Get out, see the tire is low. Go to put air in, discover a screw in the tire.

I know it’s cheap to fix, but it’s annoying that I’m losing money tonight (from not being able to work as a food courier) and then losing money tomorrow (from not being in the office.) I’m sitting here calculating in my head how much I’ll lose and what next week is going to look like financially.

I’m tired of being poor. Life is feeling like I’m running uphill and I’m getting nowhere fast.
