Cannot wait until I can finally get moved. My apt was supposed to be done last Friday, now it's this Friday. And on top of that my Medicaid/foodstamps lapsed because supposedly I didn't turn in all my paperwork on time, and the sheet they said they didn't get: I handed in PERSONALLY. most the other stuff was faxed. And they never gave me a straight answer on what paper it was unitil 15 min before the last deadline, which with two kids, you can't get out of the house and anywhere in 15 min. So I had to reapply. What Makes it so frustrating is i called close to a hundred times, and drove almost 60 min rt to the office (3 trips, not just one, so almost 3 wasted hrs) to get this sorted out before my stuff lapsed and still got screwed. So basically I now have $64 in food money to last the month for 3 people. Looks like as soon as my pantry/fridge runs out, we are gonna be living on pb&j for a while. Seems like something keeps happening to be able to get back on track with my weight loss. And healthy eating is by no means cheap. Feel like everything is working against me lately. Haven't even gotten child support this month, which always comes on the second tues. Would love to know who's karma I messed with :-( guess I better stop rambling. I don't usually air my grievances but I guess once in a while it's good to vent. I guess the worst thing is I told the boys we could probably get a cat (one or a bonded pair) from a rescue shelter the end of this month, and probably have to put that off as well. Sucks cuz my 6 year old was really excited. But I can't justify rescuing an animal if I can't even care for my boys properly. Being a single mother can really make you feel like a failure at times. ..

You are not who people say you are; you are not who you think you are; you are who "God" says you are. You are not a failure. Have faith; look up; things will be all right.

We all need to vent at times and we may not have as much as you have going on. So by al means...vent. Sounds like a frustrating situation. Hope things get cleared up very soon.

Thanks you two :-). Yea just seems to one thing added every time I turn around lately :-/. Just found out this afternoon that my little one has to be put under a general anesthetic to have his hearing tested (he's 2 and still doesnt say any words) and of course it's on a Friday in December at 8 am, 45 min away from my apt. And what makes it harder is that my oldest is supposed to catch the bus at 8:20, which can't happen if I'm not even in the same city. Then there is the worry that if I do find a way to get him on the bus, if a complication should arise at the hospital, I might not be able to pick his brother up, so looks like hes going to have to miss school.
