"OK - decision time... should I, or should I not, take a risk and spend $45 of the $70 I have left on a trip over the water to collect the mail and get a haircut ($25 haircut and $20.20 ferry ticket)?

Going to White Centre for the haircut and then up to Shoreline to get the mail would be the extra $15 in petrol and time...
Am thinking this is a trust test; have to stay in the NOW and keep moving, not sit at home being scared my resources are limited and if I use them up, there will be no more"...
Seems the Universe thought it was a good idea to get my hair cut yesterday; recalcitrant ex-husband overnight deposited some of what he owes in my bank account, so the cheque I wrote to the salon is covered AND we can get around!
Funny that he puts in the money - that he's been withholding for two months - the night before we go to court to argue over whether I can take our child back to Australia to live...
Guess it doesn't look good in court, when you're saying how much you love your son and how much of an unfit mother his other parent is, to be behind in your payments, so far behind that your child becomes homeless as a result...
Sahila, believe. anything is possible. go with your instinct. you are being pulled there. go.
ReplyDeleteoh dear, anonymous!!!!! I decided to go to the bathroom, to put the washing in the dryer, to do some more education/social activism online, to feed the boy lunch and generally to just stay home and be domestic... Have missed the boat that would have got us there on time - literally!!!
