They make promises; you totally believe them (not you, probably more me), and then you find out they count lines strangely and you don't know the formula, the DD is not in the bank when it should be, your health insurance rates change or you were never enrolled when you should be, etc. We especially in this business should be gunshy of any concrete promises from any money-giving source (except maybe our mom) that it won't necessarily be when or what we expect it. I was burned because ours was supposed to be in last week, I spent my child support for my son on clothes for him for the summer, etc. and then we had nothing left. Uggg. I was sure we'd get the DD. My husband has been on the bank site every day waiting. Isn't this sad? That we are depending on this stimulus? That's because there are no raises for cost of living, costs of gas went up, cost of bread, milk. We can't even eat out anymore, and had promised the children we'd eat out last weekend, guess we won't this weekend either. And, when the money does come, bet it will have to go to bills. I just hope we get at least one night at a hotel at the beach from it; that's all I expect anymore, used to be week long cruises in the good old days of MTing. Remember then? Good luck to everyone on the stimulus, hope you get it soon! MTmom. |
