May I join in the "fun?"

In October when I went to renew my driver's license. Because of my poor eyesight, they restricted me from nighttime driving. So I'm dealing with that, but to add insult to the injury the DMV has now decided I need to have a reevaluation hearing which is scheduled for this Friday.

So in the interim, I'm had to have piles of papers filled out by my doctors, the good news being that they have been able to improve my eyesight slightly. BUT I need to buy new glasses. My Flexible Spending Account doesn't kick in until January 1 and I'm broke.

I was hoping to use my Christmas bonus to buy new glasses, however when I took Mitzi to the vet for an ear infection, they also discovered that she once again needs her teeth cleaned. So THAT's going to come out of my Xmas bonus too - there goes the bonus.

I'm in a debt management plan trying to pay off my bills so I have virtually NO extra money. I was planning to use my Xmas bonus to pay down my debt even further, but I guess that won't happen.

AND I also need major dental work. My dental insurance plan really sucks and basically only cover $1,500 per year which will hardly put a dent in the work I need done.

Why can't I just win the lottery or meet a single millionaire? I'm freaked beyond words about the DMV hearing this coming Friday, right smack dab in the middle of my office Christmas party. I tried to reschedule, but the DMV responded with rudeness and threats of suspending my license.

Please wake me when it's over.
