my life is ridiculous sometimes. SERIOUSLY.
This morning I started with $33 in cash and a tiny tupperware container of change.
I went to the doctor (my medicaid ends tomorrow, so doc visit + meds was a must!) and paid $2 for my copay.
Then I went to Walmart for groceries. I poured my change into the coinstar machine and got $28.03! I diligently went through the store buying food for the next few days (to tide us over until Meg's SSI is available on the debit card), adding up every nickel. When I got to the checkout, the grocery bill was $58.19. I ended up with 84 cents in change! \o/
UNFORTUNATELY, once I got home and changed Meg, I opened up a new pack of diapers and realized it is the LAST PACK WE HAVE.
We have to make 12 diapers last until I can get to the store on the 1st. (also, for some weird wrongheaded budgeting/planning reason, we have 8 unopened cartons - a dozen boxes per carton, I think? - of wipes)
ANYWAY, there's a thing. GoFundMe. Because I need a computer and money other than computer money will definitely be medical expenses money (I actually went through this in a protected entry, but tl;dr is that I will now be spending $200 a month for doc visits + meds. I hope to make the money myself, but I need the computer for this...)
Here, have a widget:

(I changed the art I used on the page thanks to a LJ user's comment that the original art was offputting. I was proud of the art, a vector painting I did a while back, but I like this one too and it's a frog and is more 'me' since my personality is quite green. :D?
