Feeling royally screwed.
Posted August 29th 2012 at 02:15 AM by i_like_black
So, my benefit didn't go in, at all. The money from Keys did though, so I had just enough to make a payment on my fine repayment thingy. But aside from that . . . I have nothing.
I rang WINZ and apparently they're a hop, skip and a jump away from approving my Invalid's Benefit, but they need somebody at the actual office to do that hopping, skipping, and jumping. They said that they'd get somebody to ring me back.
It has to be done before Friday, because my application lapses on Friday. If, tomorrow (Thursday), I still have no money and haven't heard from anybody, I shall ring them again, and if that fails, I have the card of the case manager who started the process and who should be the lady to click the buttons to finalise it and get me some money.
Just having my rent paid would be advantageous, because I'm pretty sure that if I have no money, then part of my benefit sure as shit hasn't been redirected to Keys, which makes me feel guilty about the $20 rent repayment I got today.
And then there's the APs that will go out in the next five days - a gym membership payment, and my car insurance - which I really should stop but I don't have the heart to, paying my car insurance is like hanging on to the hope that I will get my license back. Also, RuneScape membership will go out sometime soon, and although it's only $10, if there's no money there, it won't be paid, and I really, really want the bonus stuff that will be received if I'm a member for all of August and all of September. I missed out on the all of May one due to a snafu with banking, so I don't want to miss out again. I'm sure it seems trivial to people reading this, but it's important to me.
And then there's the fact that I am running low on the basics, like bread and milk, and I have no margarine because I used it in the process of baking cookies. Which I don't regret. I just feel a little out of my depth here. I can live off a litte bit, but there's NOBODY who can live off nothing. I mean, I won't starve, I'm too well-padded for that, and I'm sure not going to die, but I do need to pay my bills. And I was meant to put money on the bank debts I have this week, but if I have no money, I can't pay my debts.
So that is my stressed-out ramble for the day. Sorry guys, I could try and cheerful it, but the stress part is currently a giant, panicky cloud.
