Yep, been a while since I posted. I was trying for a page a day and then, yanno, life gets in the way. My father fell THROUGH a glass coffee table and cut himself. It could have been much, much worse, but he's ok now. Brings back the whole "Dad Fear" that I was finally getting over, he'd been doing so well. So, off to physical therapy tomorrow to work on balance.
The VA paperwork I filled out for his yearly deal, has not gone through and they have not paid him this month. Waiting on the American Legion to check into it and call me back. Still no back pay. I found out that his Kaiser Medical Financial Aid runs out on April 17th and he can't apply again until NEXT April.
In the meantime, I've been living off of my IRA. I owe a crapload in taxes and my Long Term Disability has been denied. Standard Operating Procedure. I've been working like mad on my appeal, but all of this is making me go BACKWARDS in the jumpstarting of my life.
I can't stomach any more paperwork today. I am just paralyzed and overwhelmed. I need to find something else to do while my mind absorbs all of this. I've been sleeping too much. Sometimes it helps. I've overcommited myself for the next several days and can't get out of any of it. I'm just hoping we can blame all of this on mercury (my favorite scapegoat planet) and it will all work itself out in the next few days. In the meantime, I'm waiting on phone calls for all of this and as always, hoping for the powerball. I think instead of spinning around my house, I need to find something unimportant to do. Maybe clean the fridge?
Go see your therapist ASAP. You need somebody other than a sympathetic friend to talk you through this latest snag. And that's all it is...a snag, not a noose. 'K?
ReplyDeleteI have an appointment at 1 tomorrow. Thanks, Mo.
ReplyDeletegood to hear that you have that appointment! I find that cleaning nearly always helps, it's like I'm cleaning my brain out at the same time. It gets better. Love you!
