WTF Is Wrong With Our Government?
I don’t know if it’s just Florida with the ridiculous bullshit rules or if its the entire country. My guess is its the whole damn place, but Florida is by far the worst state to live in for countless reasons. First thing I did this morning was check the housing website, just like I promised I would. Only one open still, ok fine, I’ll fill out the application. I click the link and it brings me to the list of requirements to qualify. Minimum income, we make well over that. Hell, I almost make it myself. The next requirement on the list almost caused me to throw my damn computer. Minimum credit score of 640. What the actual fuck? We’re essentially homeless and applying for government help, how many people who need government help have good credit? I’ve barely managed to get mine to 510. although I’m sure it was fucking higher before the damn repossession, but I doubt it was at or above 640. I swear, this is absolute bullshit. I’m so far beyond pissed off. I hate the fact that I have to ask the government for shit, but when I’m trying my hardest and they make it nearly impossible for the people who need the help to get it, it pisses me off more than anything. Hell, I just got my eligibility for Medicaid verified, mind you I’ve not completely been approved, but I can at least see a doctor after almost 6 fucking months. Thank you so much government for allowing me to get care when I’m over halfway through this pregnancy. Not like I needed it earlier. Not like I’ve lost a child and would like to make sure this one is healthy. Everything I’ve done thus far has been completely out of pocket. I’m making my first appointment with my official doctor’s office this morning as soon as they open. I believe the website said 9, so shortly I’ll be making that call. At this point I’m ready to give up. Darryl’s credit score is even worse than mine because men are just stupid. Ok, not all men, but the majority of the one’s I know are. Instead of working out payment plans, he lets it go to collections and then ignores them when they call. I’ve collected all the past medical, phone, and whatever else past due bills and I’m going to start attempting to pay them off with next years tax return. I’ve been trying to, but there’s so many that I can’t do it all at once, and they just seem to keep piling up every year. The last few years are purely medical because the phone’s in my name and I refuse to do that shit. Yes, we’re planning to get these shut off and go through a cheaper service for now. I hate the fact that I’m going to be paying them a $200 cancellation fee just because we can’t afford to wait 3 more months to just not renew the contract, but I’ll work something out with them and pay it off slowly each month. That’s how things need to be done so you don’t have thousands of dollars worth of debt each year. Ugh. My dad and brother are the same way, but worse. Why are the men in my family so fucking dumb? They won’t listen to me, but at least I’ve finally gotten through to Darryl. Almost all we have left are medical bills and that’s just because he lost his insurance and they charge ridiculous amounts of money. Hell, I still owe one hospital almost $1000 for peeing in a cup and for them to tell me what I already knew, that I had a UTI and that the basic medicine I’d been given wasn’t working at all. No shit, I only went to the ER because it was Saturday night and I was in so much pain I was pale, freezing, couldn’t eat, couldn’t drink, and was so dizzy and shaking so badly that I’m lucky I didn’t drive into a ditch on the 10 minute drive to my house from my best friend’s place. I was too scared to drive to the hospital, so I called my dad to take me. And they charged me almost $1000, plus I had to pay for the first visit to the doctor’s because I was insuranceless. Well, I am now technically, but soon we’ll all be on insurance again, just have to get some shit dealt with so I can afford it. I need it ASAP though because of Ville and Darryl’s breathing issues. *Sigh* All I need is money, but that seems to be the hardest thing to come across (and keep) these days. I’m ready to give up, but these boys keep me going. Good thing I’ve got them or I’d have been done a long time ago.
