My federal return paid down some debt and let me get caught up on a few things, like groceries and household supplies. My state return will be going on credit card debt, have way too much of that and buying dolls has not helped, but it is my money, my life and my problems if I over spend.
Right now I should be working on some doll quilts for a friend, she will be going to UFDC this year, as usual but I won't be going. And she will attend a dessert, I am paying the fee for that and doing doll quilts for hostess gifts so she doesn't have to come up with something. She is very busy with doll stuff for things she is involved with so I decided I could use up some fabrics and batting I have on hand and do small doll quilts for her.
I won a bid to an easier job in the plant than what I had been doing, have been training on it a week now and am making progress, but I need to be more firm with the women who are doing that job but do not own the job, I need to spend more time doing the job to learn it and not standing watching them, they would have me just stand and watch most of the shift if I was willing. Today I had a watch in my pocket so kept track of time and made sure I did the job for anywhere from 30 minutes to over an hour at a stretch, they both are good at asking if I am tired after about 5 minutes. I can not learn a job if I do not do the work, and I did win the bid and have the right to learn how to do the job, qualify on it and own it.
It has not been a really bad winter here but this month has been cold and windy and colder, so I have done plenty of whining. But the house is comfortable most of the time, I can afford the heat bills and I am slowly working on the medical bills that my being so run down cost me, along with over a month off work with NO pay.
I will pay what I can on those medical bills but some of the debt comes first, as does groceries. I do know that the medical bills need paid off as quickly as I can get it done, but it is just going to take months on some of them. I am not willing to put every penny I can scrape up on those bills, I will not cut back on some things, and life will survive it. But the sooner the medical bills are paid off, the happier I will be, I have no idea right now just how many separate accounts they are, the hospital up in Rushville has quite a few, that way they can charge me and my insurance more, but this will be the last time I see any doctors there or go there for any testing, it has added quite a bit more to what I end up paying and of course, cost my insurance more also. I learned and I will not be sent there again.
But I do have a doll on preorder and I do have 1 I got from eBay that should arrive here Friday, if the tracking is correct. And no clothes for her, but need to finish some other things before I play, commitments I made, that matter to me. So,maybe I can fit a doll outfit in this weekend if I get busy tonight and tomorrow after work.
