ugh.

health savings plans are totally stupid for people who have kids. even when we didn't have a child, opening one of those wouldn't have worked for us because ALL OF OUR MONEY WAS GOING TO PAY BILLS. not to mention that children are always, always sick orrr they need shots.

wanna hear something f'd up? i'm happy because we are going to get a huge tax return this year. the down side of this is that we are getting it because we are under the poverty level. there are weeks where i don't know how in the hell we pay all our bills. we don't live an extravagent lifestyle, either. the only thing that we have that is a luxary (to us) is highspeed internet and i'm really close to cancelling it once my husband's health insurance costs go up AGAIN.

i could very easily go and get public assistance for baby stuff (wic, food stamps, etc...). i won't do it because we are surviving on what we have. at the end of any given week we have about $25-$75 in our checking account. that's a scary fucking situation for someone who has a kid.

yup. so. yeah. just venting, really.
