This is effing old

The books have arrived although I haven't even opened them yet.  I'm in a bad mood due to the truck being down again...after spending nearly $2000 on it in the past 6 months and my solutions to our problems being dismissed as if I'm stupid.  So...yeah...tired of all this bad luck that just seems to keep piling on.  And while my convenience isn't a big issue, I'm the one who has to sit home until the damned thing gets fixed again, which could be weeks from now because Tom only gets one day a week off from work.  Ever.  And should Zach get a job he's going to lose it because we never have two vehicles up and running for long.  And this has lasted for over 16 years.  No shit.

I'm not well-versed in magick yet and the one time I did try a spell to block all the negativity that has heaped upon us (I swear we're under a curse) but nothing changed so it wasn't effective apparently.

I will try to calm myself and settle myself in and read tonight in hopes things will look brighter tomorrow.  Not sure of the gods enough to ask for any help right now so I'll just send a prayer out in the ether to whoever is listening.  I'm about worn down from all this.  I truly am.
