Please ping!! I am a busy mom and tend to get lost~

@CooperationIsKey: I'm glad you have support! It'll hopefully make it easier to get situated. *^*

Oh, that's cute! Well, hopefully, the kit will show up soon for you.
It's good that you enjoy it. Are the kits easy to manage?

Lol No worries. I find the kits interesting.

@CooperationIsKey: Yeah, most of my fam is diabetic. I don't think I'd have an issue if it was high blood sugar since I don't eat sweets and have to eat a gluten-free diet due to allergies and that's low sugar, to begin with. XD So it's been super hard to get it back up to normal. And I still haven't gotten a glucometer so I'm going off of feeling until I can get one. *^*; I hope you manage to get your's back on track soon as well. I know it can cause a lot of health issues.

That's great! :) It's been that way since it started so I'm glad it's still is.

Oh, that sounds cool! Do you get to decorate the tanks and stuff too?

@CooperationIsKey: Yeah. Could be worse anyway. *^*

I'm alright. Been have issues with my blood sugar being really low so trying to fix it.
Other than that I'm practicing drawing. But might break out my paints soon.

How about you? Enjoying voltra so far?

@CooperationIsKey: Pretty much. And the amount has risen some so it's harder to save for those on it.
Yeah, it's pretty common in the US so I wasn't surprised.
But it sounds like it'll go back to payments for disability so better than it could be with all things considered.

@CooperationIsKey: Yep, so no worth bothering. XD

Yeah, it makes sure you stay at the poverty level. Which is the opposite of what it's supposed to do.
SSI was supposed to be a help, not a crutch.

Then yeah, you should qualify! As long as you were diagnosed before 26 and you have the proof (ssi/ssid) then you should be good.
I will say one thing on it is if you pass away, anything in the account will go to the government and not family. So that seems like the only downside.

@CooperationIsKey: Yeah, I'm just a stay-at-home mom so when I have "me" money is super rare. So I was super upset.
Wal-Mart lets the shops have their own return fees. The shop I ended up with has a 20% fee so I'd still be out the money.
So I just left a review. *^*

Yeah, the savings limit is nonsense! I don't see how anyone could save for anything with that.
Do you qualify for an ABLE account? I think it only had one major thing was if you were diagnosed before age 26 or something?
But it could let you save 99k in it if you do.

Hey, and welcome! :)

Lmao Small rant since I'm frustrated. T^T I had tightly budgeted $100 that was gifted to me for art supplies.

Ordered some textile medium (from walmart) so I could be painting on clothing/bags. The company I ordered from used my money and then ordered it from amazon so they could keep extra cash since it was cheaper there apparently and I didn't notice until the package got here. (cause amazon package) When you have to save every cent, this sucks major. Not to mention that walmart's return sucks so it's not worth trying. I could have ordered the oil marker set that I needed with that.

Especially since I was already down $15 since my SO tried to be nice and bought me a bunch of fine detail brushes when I only needed one set. *^*;; In the end, I only got some of the stuff I budgeted for and the rest of the cash flung its-self out of my pocket.
