Almost a Month
since my last post. If you’ve been reading my blog on a regular or semi-regular basis, you know that’s quite unusual. But I’m still among the living.
Things have been pretty crappy lately, but at least we’re getting some of the assistance we’ve applied for (and a little from some kind friends and family members). But my brain has been quite muddled. Hubby is applying for disability, and we also applied for Work First, a program that helps people who are between jobs. They made him apply for unemployment, which we were surprised to find out that he might actually have a shot at getting, but he has to go job hunting every week to qualify. Now, I don’t know how that will affect his disability application, nor how they expect him to find a job when the doctor has written him out of work. But whatever.
As for me, I’ve been under an insane amount of stress. In addition to depression, terrible memory, and a general mind fog, it has given me a wicked bad case of thrush. Ick.
I still haven’t gotten around to filing our taxes yet, but I’ve got to pull myself together at least long enough to get through that. We should get a respectable refund, and that would help tide us over until things get better.
So that’s what’s been going on in a nutshell. I have a lot of emotional issues that I need to let out, but I just can’t seem to find the words. At least I have Hubby around to hold me and wipe away the tears, and Pumpkin to give me a reason to keep on keeping on.
