msbelle, are you still paying COBRA for health insurance? Because that is a budget-killer. A job with benefits would help a lot, if you don't have one now.

Punishingly Intricate

My trip was flipping awesome! Best vacation ever!!!! We just ordered a new computer so we can deal efficiently with all the photos. (something we have needed to do for a long time)

Missed youz! Ive been lurking but work has gotten in the way of much posting.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

Not paying COBRA, paying for my own insurance privately. That IS my budget killer and a job with benefits would change everything. I really like the part-time job I have now, but I just don't think it will evolve into anything full-time.

YES. I'd made the connection earlier, but then forgot when I posted.

Because books.

Two creamsicles isn't too many, right?

I can't imagine paying for private insurance, msbelle. I can imagine that's a total budget-killer.

Managing a donation drive is hard. Hats off to all of you who do this. We had to put together a list of people from 4 different spheres to contact for three different people, using 4 different methods of payment (cash, IOU, check and paypal.) And 4 of us are doing collections, so I've set up a google doc to share so we can track it all (esp for me, since I'm doing the paypal.)
