I am so angry at my school. They offer a scholarship. I apply for it. Then I am rejected over some little technical glitch, not because I don't qualify financially. I feel like I always have to fight for everything. It gets to be like life is a big battle.

My household income is only 25,000 dollars a year. I struggle just to pay the basic bills. I have been rejected for all sorts of financial assistance. The only bright thing is that I did qualify for Obamacare which put my insurance premiums from 800 dollars a month to 400 dollars a month which is still very steep for my finances.

My husband's business is failing. He refuses to look for a job so everything is on me. I have felt fairly positive lately but today I have a dark cloud over me even though it is sunny and hot outside. It is too hot outside. I don't like summer. Sometimes I wonder, why bother.

I'm sorry you are having such a tough time today. You sound like you have a lot on your plate right now. I have applied for a scholarship based on income to my daughter's college (she graduates Friday) and I am waiting nervously for it to come through. I am going to beyond disappointed if it doesn't come through because of a glitch. I'm sorry your husband isn't being very helpful right now. Sometimes life does seem like too much of a battle but something usually comes along to lighten it up. I hate summer too...really, really dislike it. I hope you feel better soon. Always feel free to vent here....you might feel better.

Thanks for this!

Sorry you didn't get the scholarship, can you get it if the glitch gets fixed? It sounds like added stress you don't need right now! I hope it gets straightened out for you soon so that things improve for you soon.
