Kids are crazy, and I'm broke...but I guess it could be worse!
Hubby got stepson in to his therapist, but she wouldn't see him until part of the bill for our family was paid. We've been billed for $200. I assumed she wanted at least $100, and hubby said something about $225--and again, I assumed that was the entire bill. WRONG! The entire bill is $550!!!! We've never seen a bill for $350 of that. She wants half, which is the $225.
After getting slammed with propane, and we had a huge cell bill because it's the one the girls's phones are on, with prorated charges, etc.---and they've not been giving us our 15% off discount, and we have $112 in other medical expenses to pay...we had just enough money in the bank to give the therapist $225. That means, we're broke. I think there will be about $50 in the bank when all is said and done.
It's absolutely necessary that stepson get back into therapy, so we had no choice. He's out of control, and even shoved hubby yesterday :(
We also have nothing left in savings. Hubby used his AAFES card and bought a couple Visa gift cards to cover us with gas, and DD14 HAS to have new jeans--this weekend is 50% off at Goodwill, and I'm taking her in just a few minutes.
On the up side, our state tax return has been processed, and we should have the money next week! Just checked on it this morning. That money is ours to spend, and although it's only $268, it's something. It makes up for what we had to pay the therapist anyway.
We have a roof over our head, meat in the freezer, and we'll get by.
Hubby and I played Wii bowling last night. We both won some and lost some, but I beat the previous high score record (also set by me), and bowled a 215 game. We also did 100 pin...and we both suck at that! LOL Hubby holds the record there of just under 1900, and the highest either of us got last night was 16something.
He just came back from getting the mail, so I need to run to Goodwill! Don't know if I'll get to update tonight or not. :) If not, for sure on Monday!
