First and foremost I would like to thank everyone who prayed for my Husband and I. Something must be working, because things are starting to look up a little.
I was finally able to speak with my landlord and after telling them I wanted my $900 security deposit, plus an additional $900 (because in PA if they don't return it within 30 days double the amount of the deposit is due) I was sent a money order for $900. I wish they would have sent the $1800, but I cant afford an attorney and since they at least did return my security deposit (2 months from the date I moved out, so a month late) I don't know for sure that a judge will make them pay the rest.
I just got a job. Not a good job, pays just a little over minimum wage because I will be working the closing shift, so I wont get out until 1:30 am, and it is at Wendys fast food restaurant, but a job is a job, and we think hubby is getting laid off soon. He was hired as seasonal help in a clothing store in the mall, and was getting around 12 hours a week. The downfall is I had to spend $70 this evening purchasing the required clothing for my new job, since everything I owned that was in the dress code no longer fit me.
My electric company sent me a $51 refund check from when I was renting my house. I had called them and argued with them MONTHS ago because I felt I was over charged, and they wouldn't look into it. I guess they just looked into it, since I got a check.
My car is still on the verge of un-drivable. Honestly, we really shouldn't be driving it, but have no other way to work. With the $900 we got back from our security deposit we are going to get the things fixed. My step dad and hubby are going to fix what they can, a family friend works at advanced auto and will get me a discount on the parts I need. The rest will be done at the shop, but I'm expecting the fee to be way cheaper.
I'm still up in the air regarding our state health insurance. I can never get a hold of the lady, and when I called the state hot line they told me "all of your information is a mess, most stuff hasn't been submitted, and we will write a letter to the office" Over the holidays I haven't been able to get much headway with that, because they were closed, or from being closed the phone line was packed, and I couldn't get through.
For a Christmas gift my sister paid for my cat to get neutered, which we had done this past monday and I'm very thankful for. He is 8months old and I wanted to have him neutered sooner, but was unable to. Funny though, at 8 months Kratos weighs 11lbs. Hes not morbidly obese, he is a maine coon, and has lots of personality and charisma, lol. I'll post pictures of him a day.
My rescue kitty is doing about 50% better, and has gone from 2.75 lbs to 4lbs in 2 weeks. He is still batteling his URI, but doing a lot better. The little guy is 7 months old and starving and shivering and very sick when i brought him home. Not the smartest thing to do in my current situation, but I couldnt just let him die. The vet says another week or two and he can be taken out of quarantine, and introduced to Kratos.
If I could just get our health care stuff taken care of I would feel so much better, and could get us back on track for a normal life.
Well I don't think I have much else to say, just want to thank all of you again for your prayers, they seem to be working, and things seem to be slowly turning around.
