Feeling frustrated

Do you ever have those day, that turn into weeks, that turn into months? Well I do, and have been for the past two and a half months all because of one stupid insignificant turn of events. Everyone has little quirks that they can't seem to give up, mine is having to have a tidy/clutter free house and paying bills on time. Right now my houses is not the problem. Two and a half months ago, 2 days after our warranty expired, our computer decided to take a rest. Since the company wouldn't fix it I decided to take it to the computer shop that takes care of our computers at work. Bad idea. They told me all it needed was a new power source and I should have it back in about 2 weeks.Excellent news. Well and month passed by and I decided to call and they told me someone had picked it up., so I responded with "who? because it wasn't us", they panicked and scrambled and came back on the phone to assure me that they actually still have it. Fantastic.That was great but it wasn't fixed. Now I'm not a computer dependent person but I do rely on it for things such as paying my bills and transferring money for our rent which comes out on the 1st. So as long as this story has the potential to be I'll get to the point on my frustration. I have missed more bill payments and bounced more cheques then I ever have in my entire life ( which is a lot when you've never missed a payment or bounced a cheque), and the anxiety it's creating in me is ridiculous. I'm blessed with a job that gives me a lot of freedom and a computer to use, however I'm not blessed with a good memory. So alas I get to work and have forgotten the bill that needs to be payed, and then I return home to realize I have forgotten to transfer our rent resulting in another bounced cheque. I guess the good news is our computer is fixed and really if the only thing I have to worry about is a couple late charges then I'm doing not to bad. So in the words my father "that's life sweetheart"
