Lately I have 6 day work weeks. When I'm not working I'm running around taking the kids to appointments, donating plasma for grocery money and just trying to make sure we have the things we need. My food stamps were cut from $263 to $34. I can't get help from local food pantries unless I get a referral from a church or doctor and my son's medical insurance didn't cover his diabetic testing meter so I spent $26 out of pocket to cover it that I was planning on using for groceries. Such is life for a single mom. Stress stress and more stress. Anyway, break time is over. Back to work I go.

They went by December's pay stubs and in December since so many coworkers were on vacation I had a lot of hours.

Yeah, his insurance covers the strips and the lancets but not the actual meter. Smh
