Oh, I do too, but since I'm relying on family and friends for financial support (see the whole short term disability fiasco pre-surgery), it's helpful to me and them to know how long I'll need their support and support in general.

Although, if the TurboTax software wasn't lying to me, I should have a combined $958 tax refund coming which would put all of those financial worries to rest for a while. My worry is that an overly ambitious bill collector (All the creditors I have should know at this point that I'm laid up and can't pay them.) tries to garnish some or all of my refund. I hope I'm being paranoid, but it happened with my state refund last year.

Fingers crossed nothing happens! I really need that money!
