I hate to complain. I usually keep things bottled up inside of me, or vent to the few close people in my life who will tolerate my pity party. I am just so exhausted right now, mentally, physically and emotionally. I know there are people who deal with way worse on a more constant basis. Sometimes I just wonder why things cant go smoothly in our lives for at least a year. Last year my husband was sick and in the hospital 6 times from the last week of August to the first week of January this year. I had my gall bladder out while he was in the hospital in January. Then he gets the infection in the bone of the heel of his foot from the hole that hes had for about 3 years at that time. Then our daughter gets the abscess in her breast and has to be hospitalized and have surgery. Shortly after that my husband begins the in-home IV antibiotics. So I am taking care of both of them, with the help of home health care. Then I get sick with two different abscesses. The second one I had to go to the ER. After several problems with my IV antibiotic treatment, I was finally getting it done in-home, too. Problems with our son on and off all year. Financial problems. Animal problems. Car problems. I think the only two good things this year was my husband getting approved for his social security, and us getting a nice house. A house that we still have not moved into yet because of so many problems, and I am only one person with very little time. I thought I was doing alright going through this rough time with my husbands colon removal, and trying to finish getting the house ready for him to come home to. Until I opened the mail today. An overdraft from our credit union. They sent the check back to who it was written to. It was, of course, to the secretary of state, for the car we got for our 16 year old, and to also help out our oldest daughter for a down payment on a house. I dont have enough in the other two banks to cover that. I have been so busy driving back and forth to Peoria to see my husband that I lost track of what was coming through that bank. Credit cards are the only thing we have left at this point. I am praying when I go to the new house tonight that the refund check from our tax return is in the mailbox. We asked for an extension and filed late in hopes I could get the person at the retirement fund place from where my husband had to quit working at because of his health to change the exception code. She didnt put the disability exception, and I had been fighting with her to change it, as it would save us almost $1000 to the government. So its been 4 weeks since the paperwork was sent for the return. We really need that $1000 right now. I am hoping the lady at the credit union will reverse the $27 fee. We have not had an overdraft there in a long time, and are good, long-time customers. I know things could always be worse, but I wasnt expecting an overdraft. Now I will probably have to pay a returned check fee to the state. On a positive note, my husband was doing pretty good today, even though theres a chance he might be there until after Thanksgiving. I will update more on him later. Hope you are all having a good day.
