don't scream / when it stings / remember / that / you were warned
I will reply to you guys who sent me hugs and well-wishes about my mom in a minute; LJ is being a dick any time I try and leave comments on my phone and it's more frustrating than usual lately. But an update: she was let out of the hospital Friday evening and has been home since then. She's been resting more or less the last few days. We did have a fight on Saturday night about her driving me to work but I ended up calling in due to my own health problems that morning (period cramps, oh, how I loathe you) and she ended up not driving on the freeway to get to the party she wanted to go to for Super Bowl Sunday so we're okay now. She's going to see her doctor tomorrow and her cardiologist next week, but everyone has been calling to make sure she's okay. But yeah. Things are okay right now. She's at her friend's house today in case anything goes wrong. I had to come here to finish applying for my health insurance (I'm 99% I qualify because I get food stamps, but the verification I submitted has my old address on it so I don't know if there's going to be a problem with it) and do some fandomy stuff before I lost my mind over job stress.
We did run into a problem, though. I had to use my entire second paycheck last week for food that she can actually eat (I got a check Thursday for my normal paycheck and Friday for my last paycheck with Kodak) and now I don't know if I'll have any money for gas to get to work. Does anyone have a gas card or anything they don't need that they can give me to be able to get to work? I'm on ninety day probation along with everyone else in my job and I can't afford to miss any more work. I may be able to get a ride with my coworker a few days but I need to pay her back and I'm only getting paid for five days on my next paycheck. So yeah. I'm starting to panic over this.
