Starting out Fresh

really tired have not slept in two days lots going on nervous about my new job. this job is going to be paying for my trip every ounce of cash going straight to the bank. it takes about 1.50 per mile to comfortably do the hike (many say) and since i will be having my kido with me I will say around $4,000 total at max. so my concern is this: travlers checks or a green dot card* ?

* green dot cards are easy to get at walmart or at any drug store. it takes about three bucks to activate but I dont know if they are accepted everywhere or not. I feel a little silly from lack of sleep lol good night my wittle bloggy see you one the other side of normalcy!
