Well, it's been a one step forward, two steps back kind of few days! I looks like the water issue isn't going to be resolved when I thought it would. I've got a tiny bit of money coming in on Tuesday and some more coming in around that date (anywhere from tomorrow through Wednesday). Neither will cover the bill.

On a personal note, I'm starting to stink a bit and if I want my new job to last, I'll need a shower. Best bet is going to be swallowing my pride and asking my cousin if I could use his shower and washer and dryer. Knowing my cousin, my state of affairs is going to be immediately reported to my father who will revel in playing the benevolent benefactor hurt by my stubborn refusal to let him help because it gives him relative power.

I also get to talk to the Social Security office who sent me a letter with a deadline of tomorrow that only got my way Thursday because my cousin is a busybody who collected my mail and put it in a place I never go. So, I get to plead for an extension on my applications most likely.

On a positive note, I've started the onboard process for the 30-hour phone job. If it works out, I can take care of a lot of stuff! Honestly, if anything (unemployment, employment, SSI) start working out, I'll be thrilled!
