bloodsong1So I got ANOTHER letter from SSA today, saying "Sorry, we paid you when we shouldn't have since Oct. 2010."
October 2010.
WHEN I FUCKING FILED FOR SURVIVOR'S BENEFITS AND THEY FUCKING GAVE THEM TO ME!!!
No. Because I made thousands and thousands over $14kandchange/year, I not only not get benefits for Cuteness, but I have to FUCKING PAY THEM BACK!!!!
I called to file an appeal and was told point blank "You made too much."
"So I can't file an appeal?"
"No. Not unless you start working less or retire."
"So I have to pay you back?"
"Yes."
"When?"
"You'll get a notice."
So! I now get to wait for a notice to pay back $9600, AND try to find roughly $800 in my budget.
Cutting out karate and taking the cable away will only net me about $190, tops. I can also call the CHP people and get the kiddo's insurance reduced back to $9/each, which will net me another $42. I pay off the last credit card bill, and that gets me about another $125.
You see where this is going, yes?
Guess it's time to hit the papers and find a part time job. So much for, oh, the rest of my life. Looks like Panthea will be my Last Hurrah. I'm dancing my bloody heart out.
