I am not having a good day. Feeling pretty sick with some sort of head cold. I also got a bill from a past hospital visit that was over a year and a half ago. Now I owe them $150.00 that I really do not have. My boyfriend makes more in one week then I make from both jobs from two weeks worth of work. I am so screwed....
My parents are on my butt about buying a car and I really do not think that I can afford it. The way things are going now I am going to have to pick up another job for the weekends and end up working three jobs seven days a week.
Why do I even bother....

Jessica

Ozzie's right. Most hospitals will let you pay them in installments. I've had the get pretty ugly with me on the phone, but I just said look that's all I can afford and then ask if they're refusing payment. They'll usually do whatever you want. You both want the same thing. The stinking thing to be paid. I'm so sorry you're going through so much. I'll send good thoughts your way that you WON'T have to take that 3rd job.

Take Care.

Well I get paid on Thursday so I just dropped them the cash to get them off my back. My boyfriend is just going to have to understand that I am broke for the week. The bottom line is my job at the Domestic Violence Center needs to give me more hours. I was told when I started that I could pick more up and now they are taking it back. I would not have to do this is they would just help me out with 6 more hours or so.

Trying hard to hold on,
Jessica

"Big sigh" is right! *Big Sigh* Wish I had more to offer you but this is all I have at the moment... {{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{Jessica}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}} and lots of love to go with it.

Hang in there, Sweety.

Sorry about money problems. Perhaps you can find a better paying job or full time instead of part time? Why do your parents want you to buy a car? If they want you to have one, maybe they can help finance it. I don't really have much ideas. Sorry.

Thanks everyone for their kind words. This is my first job after college so the last thing that I want to do is quit right now. Everyone keeps telling me that starting off is hard and that I just need to give it time. While I am tired of hearing that I guess I see their point.
