    R's foot is still not better. This will make 2 weeks that he has been out of work.

    My mom keeps having more and more complications from her gallbladder removal. She is unable to eat any solid food (and has lost 20lbs in the past two and a half weeks). They've done a CT scan (with contrast), a HIDA scan, and did a scope yesterday. They thought the problem was with her oddi sphincter, but when they did the scope they had to take a bunch of biopsies (but didn't tell them what for or why). 

    I'm officially broke. I saved almost all of my tax return from this year and put it in an "emergency savings" account. It was only 1K but that's a lot of money for us. But between R's medical bills (2 doc visits with X-rays) rent, bills, and him being out of work, I've had to shoulder all financial responsibility (we usually split all  bills 50/50) it's completely gone. Completely. I feel so vulnerable and I'm terrified of losing our house or not being able to feed our pets. I'm hoping R can start going back to work next week and work doubles until we get our savings back.

    I'm trying to find a second job since I only work 7:30am-6pm Monday-Friday. If I can find a job for nights and weekends that would help a lot. I just wonder where I'm going to find the extra rest and how in the world I will be able to handle the stress of a second job when I can barely handle the stress going on now. But I mean, what choice do I have?

    I found 7 gray hairs.

    I need a hug.

  • HUGZZZZZZZZZZZ
    see, I didn't even try to goose you, either :p

    You'll get through this, promise.
    Do you have a car? SERIOUSLY consider pizza delivery. Theres bank there working tuesday and friday nights. Just not pizza hut.

  • Awww, so sorry so much is happening all at the same time. 

  • @IntoTheWind1 - I do have a car, but I've found a few people who want me to cut their grass and stuff for them and other odds and ends. It helps that I'm basically a jack of all trades. I'm also considering re-upping my locksmithing license and see who is hiring (been doing it since I was 7 with my grandpa).

    @AlterEgo909 - When it rains it pours! Hopefully after this storm I'll get a bit of a break before another one blows in.

    @CloudsofNight - Thank you :)
