Stressed up to here.

I've been down sick and seriously fatigued for the last few days due to stress.
I'm pretty sure I've mentioned it multiple times, that when I get super stressed out, my body revolts and makes me super sick.
It's my body's way of saying "Hey! Kat! Slow the hell down woman, you're killing us in here!".
It's just been non-stop arguing with Mark about all of this, and arguing with Sebastian about school, and arguing with an insane teacher who keeps calling me, and just all kinds of stuff.

The approval for physical therapy came in today's mail, so I tried talking to Mark about it, tried to get him to realize that he can do it even though the doc told him nothing more strenuous than going for a walk, but the doc ordered the PT, so yes, he can do some workouts just not do really crazy stuff.
I'm going to set his appointments up with the same place that I went for my PT because that guy who works there really knows what he's doing, and they will be having Mark use some of the fitness equipment that they have there to help him build up his core, make it stronger, it's part of the PT orders that he do mostly core strengthening exercises.
But as it's been for the last several weeks, Mark argues about it, he argues about everything.
I really try to not argue back, but I can't help it.
When he starts snapping at me, starts giving me the eye, I feel like I have to defend myself.
I hate this, I really hate this.

Then this morning, my landlord showed up, said he needed the rent for December early, way early, because of the property taxes that are due, so I needed to give him the rent.
I didn't have it all, so I had to find a way to get it.
I got it and then called him so he could come back and get it, but man, that sucked having to get it all so early.
He apologized about it, said that the property taxes came due, he needed to get down to the city and pay it no later than 10am tomorrow morning, said he got the letter in the mail this morning, and so he had to rush to all of the apartments he owns and get everyone to pay early so he could pay the property taxes and while he's there, he said he's going to yell at them about mailing stuff so late that it makes it hard for people to come up with that kind of money in a little over 24 hours.
But it's all paid now, my rent for next month is all paid, so at least I can stop stressing about that.
Money is a huge stress-er for me, it's always on my mind, and I hate it.
I hate how money causes me so much stress.

Oh well, it's all done now, dinner is done cooking too, so I'm going to go feed my boys and try to have a peaceful evening with no fighting and stuff.
