shauns school money finally came in. unfortunately, it's already gone. i didn't have enough to pay off the credit card, or pay mark and my mother-in-law back. all the bills are current, but there's nothing to get us through until fall semesters loan money comes in.
the food money finally came in also. interesting story that one. i had sent in all the verification paperwork and everything they wanted for both the food stamps and the medicaid. a month later and i was still waiting to hear back about them. so, i tried calling in to get some info and find out what was going on. i got an automated message that said, "for english press one, for spanish press two." i pressed one, it repeated itself, i pressed one again, it repeated itself again. it kept looping.
so, i drove down to the local office, which by the way no longer takes care of anything except the initial interviews, and tried to get some info out of them. they gave me direct phone numbers to call.
so, on the way home, i called those numbers. about the food stamps i was told they were VERY sorry, and would have someone run the case right away and call us back that day with numbers and the money, if there was any, would be in the account in the morning. it was.
as for the medicaid, i was told that they would get someone on it soon and i would be informed. still waiting to hear on that one. when that comes through, i can take the receipts for elizabeths medicine back to the pharmacy and get my money back. that will help, that's a hundred dollars.
basically, they had everything they needed for both of them, but no one had bothered to check back and run them again. idiots!
now if we can just figure out how to survive until fall semester starts.
oh, btw-still no oven, this really sucks!
