I feel much better today. The fear and all that not so fun stuff from yesterday is gone, and I’m calm. I’ve developed a pretty solid plan to financially survive the next four months, and the numbers work. I almost feel silly for feeling so stressed out yesterday, and for about a week before that.
I don’t know if that’s something that needed to happen for the FRM to work, or if I just had a bad day, but it seems to be over. Normally I’m not the most emotional guy in the world and don’t believe that feeling the bad things is a good thing if it can be avoided, but if I’ve gotta go through it to get beyond it, and it doesn’t last long I will. If this is FRM it’s odd because it’s gotten rid of other more deep seated stuff without me feeling a bloody thing on the surface. At least I think it has.
I also realized that my anger with my wife for spending the money is not at all productive. I’m going to have to watch her around money for a while, but she knows it was a problem and she’s watching herself too. I think.
