Lucky to vet

So we're still waiting on the "huge" check dan worked so hard for.  The bunny needs to go to the doctor so that's why we never get the credit cards paid down.  We don't get them, or the taxes paid, so how will we ever pay down the big line of credit account on our mortgage?  Dan doesn't see it, but I do.  I don't think he does better on one big job.  He does, but he spends too much of his time on it.  He gets miserable.  I don't think he makes more money per day (nevermind per hour) on the big jobs.  Since the more big jobs he does, the harder it is to budget the household, I think it doesn't make more money.  I'm always struggling for simple things like a small vet bill, getting groceries, etc.  That isn't the same when he's doing multiple little jobs.
Bunny goes in at 4 and maybe the cheque will be made out, if the boss comes in today.  I think he usually doesn't, and if he makes it out tomorrow, it'll be wednesday before Dan actually picks it up.  He always does that.
I really want to upgrade my PC but it'll take a chunk of money and with vet bills crowding the few cheques that come in, and the CRA going to start sending us complaints and bills, I just don't know if I'll get it.  Damn thing is so slow and crashy it's hardly worth using, and the ipad is nearly as bad.  I offloaded all my pics and videos to the NAS to free up space and that's helped a lot with my ipad performance.
