That and to get it off my chest, of course. Loretta - Yes, you definitely have to jump through a lot of hoops to get any help. But from what I've heard, the county I live in is better than most about getting things done in that department. I went through the same thing when I was pregnant with my daughter, only had to talk to a lot more people, and there were only one or two who were a bit snotty about it. And this time, everyone has been quite understanding and helpful so far. I guess maybe it's because the economy is in such sorry shape and they know how many people are having a hard time. Thanks to both of you for the well wishes! Angel – That’s a big part of why I share these things – to let others who are going through similar stuff know that they’re not alone.

When we needed to at one point when our kids were very little we waited until the last possible moment we could. I didn't realize they were going to make me jump through hoops for two weeks to apply. It's hard enough in the first place, then they make you feel as if you don't deserve the help in a weird way. Our system is definitely in need of repair. Good luck with your appointments and I hope you get all the paperwork in order. I know how hard it is to take that step to apply for public assistance.
