I'm Tired of.......Things...

Ok,
Here's the latest in my diary of woes. E-mailed the Shrink today about lost appts. sheer vacancy of medication and total disregard for sanity. She propably won't even get to read it till tomorrow and when or if she'll reply is suspect to say the least. I didn't call because I have a general respect for others and if I had....well it simply woulda been ugly.
Went to the unemployment office today to file (JIC I get denied by the company I'm currently trying to persuade to hire me) Ironic that my benefits for unemloyment will (if I stay this way) be almost exactly what I was bringing home when working..........mebbie I Shouldn't work WTF! Course it'll be about 4 weeks before it starts coming in and the first check will only be for a week.....the real cash doesn't flow till after the first check is paid. While at the UE office I heard a rumor that if my former company tries to deny me my accrued vacation hrs. I can go to the Dept. of Labor and they will get it for me (apparently) so I'm guessing at this point that I WILL get paid for last week, its just a question of when.
REXTANGLE: your package has been mailed and should arrive in a couple of days. (sorry for the delay)
After all that, I had to go fax some crap to the former owner of the house we live in for tax purposes, drop off a school project for my eldest daughter, got to the post office and mail a bunch of shit.....
I arrived home just about 30 minutes ago and My youngest (at home sick from school) wants to know whats for dinner.......FUCK! I hadn't even thought of that yet , If I had the cash I'd take her Mc Donalds or somethin, but, I think I have a solution already. And Finally I gotta get my shit together, dress up , and go to the place I'm trying to get hired at to do some more schmoozing  HOPEFULLY this will be the FINAL time
Can ya tell I'm getting impatient? 
I Still gotta find time to make a doc's appointment with my GP to keep him updated on my status and tell him about my weekend so the xanax will keep flowin' (at least for a while) and about a possible referral to another shrink.
Did I mention that I still have to call Janesville about the status of my pay? AAAARRRGGGHHH! TOO MUCH SHIT!!!!!
Dammit folks I'm just plain tired of ........THINGS!

Hang in there Ramon. Listening to a rant/vent are what we are here for.

Wow, what a busy day you've had! I wish you the best of luck with the doc, the new job, and everything else!
Ya know, Ramon, pancakes or cereal or eggs and toast are acceptable as dinner... and quite easy to make!
Love to you and Tina,
Lizzie

Ramon,
Stop for a second and pat yourself on the back. You did a lot today.
Read your own post. Relax..cast your net and let it come to you. You seem to be doing all what you need to be doing.
Good work.
Have you wanted to paint but could never find the time?

I know one thing that worked well for me when it came to money. I accepted what they offord contingent that if they were happy with my work that I got the money that I wanted on my 90 days. Everyone always busts their ass on the 90 days anyway and if it is part of your offer letter, they have to give it to you. If you can survive that way then you are good.
Yes your old company has to pay you for your vacation time. And they have to pay it to you by the next scheduled pay day. If not then the labor board will get it for you.
Raymond, you have done a lot. Take a little time for yourself. You can not do it all in one day. No one can. Take a breather and draw. That is one of your big relieses, use it to help calm your mind and soul. There is little more you can do atm. You have everything in order, just let it happen.
Make mac and cheese with hotdogs with your little one. Somple and she can help.

Ramon,
Hang in there!
If I were you, I'd ask the gp for an rx for some more remeron or possibly another anti-depressant and then hit him up for a load of samples of whatever he prescribes. Ya might also look into klonazepam rx. It is not taken during an anxiety attack but rather at bedtime every day and it helps prevent anxiety attacks. It is an anti-seizure drug that might help with CH also, but I'm not gonna play with my cocktail to find out.
Chili...did it have kidney beans in it? ick!
p.m. or call me if ya wanna chat.
hugs and vibes

SOOOOOO...
I did some figuring....Took the amount of yearly pay offered (so far) and divided it by the number of weeks in a year to get a weekly figure, then divided again by the approximate number of hours expected to put in and the grand total comes to?:
$8.33 an hour  ..............lemme see here. Um.........NO! gotta keep competitive with the industry standards ya know. I'm gonna make more than that in UnEmployment!!!!!!! So in the interest of keeping up with the joneses.......its gonna cost em about 5 grand more a year to get me thinking more about it. I can go ANYWHERE in this town and make $8 bucks an hour, my last job paid me 12.50hrly. and THAT was a stretch......I gotta have a certain quality of life dont'cha think?!
Good Grief!
Ramon

Meebie you shouldn't work that job, draw unemployment, & contribute your time to a worthy cause? Society may be getting a hell of deal!
