Today I decide to be wealthy.
I found out that the hospital has given my account to a collection agency. I was paying $10 a month, as I'd talked to someone on the phone and she said that would be fine, so I kept doing it, and--surprise--I was to have done paperwork, and the least amount that would have been accepted per month would have been $500 a month, for two years, according to today's someone, named Doris. Which is more than what I quit paying for health insurance because I couldn't afford it.
I went to check on my unemployment claim and found this:

I went to check on my unemployment claim and found this:
| How much time and money do I have left in my claim? | |||
| Your weekly benefit amount is: | $ | Program: Non-valid claim | |
| Your remaining balance is: | $ | ||
Well, I don't have any Federal or out of state wages. So I guess I'm cut out of the program. My heart froze when I saw that. Fortunately, my mother-in-law called out of the blue a few days ago and told us that she'd be sending us some money, the amount would be enough to see us through the month and into next. I'll keep posting my claim, though. Maybe something will change for my benefit. One of my friends called later, and I told her about it, and that I thought about her, and Pam, and Lauren, how things worked out for them, and their circumstances got better, and she assured me that mine would too. I got a call today from Touchmark, a pre-interview, and next week they'll call and set up a face-to-face. I put in an application at another retirement center, the one I went to Saturday, and they wanted the application filled out on the premises. I sent a message to the guy who is setting up a new thrift store. So I met my goal of three job contacts today. And I'll just keep applying around. The library job, and Goodwill, and whatever else, and just keep in the front of my brain that all this is for my good and shall give me experience. Doctrine and Covenants 122:7. Because of the money my mother-in-law is sending, I have a bit of a breather while I look. And, of course, my attitude, to help my belief that I'll get a job, and the courage to keep applying. Today I decide to be wealthy. I'm halfway through the 60 days. | |||
