So a check that I wrote for Mom got processed twice somehow. The second time it went through I got busted for overdrafting...which is bullshit. This also meant that the next check I wrote (also for Mom) bounced and I get called for overdrafting fees *again*. Suddenly I'm $100 in the hole though I had enough money to clear both.
As I'm walking out the door to get this taken care of, the phone rings. Guess who it is? Mom! Something went wrong with her Social Security check this month, so she doesn't have enough to pay rent or utilities. And guess who's writing her *another* check with money that's supposed to be going for bills, groceries (I'm tired of beans) and savings this week? I'll give you three guesses.
What the fuck? Can't we get a break? I can't be mad at her, but god-damn this situation sucks.
