~March and April have been tough months financially. March there was the cock-up with my SSI and then the fridge crapping out, which ran $163. I didn't mention that one of our kitties got very sick from bad teeth and we had to drop $90 on a vet visit and antibiotics. Then on the second day of this month, she had four teeth out, which ran $242.
I've been fighting off depression so I couldn't even get my shit together to seriously ask for help. We're not going to go hungry or anything, but we're barely going to get by this month.
But I was thinking yesterday as I watched the kitty in question running around the house that if we had not taken her in from outside, those bad teeth would have killed her. That brought up tears from my vast back log of said.
Since the beginning of last week I've been playing phone tag with a Social Security worker regarding a renewal interview. I'm not as depressed as I was, but I am emotionally drained...
...and there you have it.
