At first I didn't like it very much, but now I am loving it

Workman's Compensation

Screwed over and over again it seems.
At first I thought it was a good thing - I get off work, they pay me.

Backtracking ---
In December, right before Christmas, I slipped at work and my knee went in a wrong way.
At first I thought it was a sprain. I finished my shift, with pain killers.
Next day, I went to work popping pills and was -okay- at best.
Day later, I couldn't walk up the stairs without a load of pain.
Needless to say I didn't go to work that day.
That was the day I went to the Doctor.
Sitting in the stupid walk in clinic (not getting to see my real Doctor until 2 weeks later with appointment) and this was taking hours. About 2 hours of sitting, I couldn't move my knee but an inch without gasping in pain.
By the time I saw the Doctor he finally saw I was in pain, checked me out, wiggled my knee in awful ways, and then said it was just 'soft tissue damage'. Sounds pretty pathetic but it really did hurt like hell.
I got prescribed t3's and another bit and that finally made me feel better.

Enter Workman's Compensation.
It was fine at first, they were nice, accepted my claim. I got a letter telling me that I got a sum of money to be paid through my employers... The employers checked the wrong box for the paper work and then said they wouldn't pay me money.... this lasted a whole 2 months until I finally got through to one of the bosses that I wasn't getting any money! Talk about frustrating!
I am so lucky to be living at home right now. I can't imagine being without pay for a month while I could not walk very long.

Ok so come around to March... still haven't seen a penny. I call them every time I can - though since I work the same hours they do it was just answering machine tag.

April I finally got a cheque in the mail. Took way too long, too many problems.
Not to mention now, my newest frustration - after I thought it was all over and done with.

I got my income tax back today. The guy from the workman's compensation claims specifically told me that it wouldn't change my tax return. WRONG. I get my mail today and the government says I don't get as much money as I would have thought.

Workmans compensation did send me a t4 thing to send in yet I didn't. Thinking I would not say that I got money (when I hadn't been sent the money until after I finished my taxes (the very last week mind you) ).

So there is my anger. bitter perhaps?
It may be around $70 less than I thought to have gotten. But that's still $70!

Aria is angry. But getting over it.
Thanks for the rant!

Days off!

Today was my day off and wow I was very productive if I do say so myself.
I started by making buns from grandmas recipe and they turned out beautifully.
It was my first time making buns to boot! Beginners luck perhaps?

I quite liked punching my dough.... haha I can throw a pretty good punch too.
Then I cleaned up that and then my room, and bathroom.
After dinner I sewed on a button on my purse that fell off, and fixed the button on a pair of pants.
I don't think I have ever been so 'homemaker-ish' before in my life. Cooking cleaning and sewing in one day.... creepy.

And my weekend has gone by too fast and work comes tomorrow morning.
ah well another day another dollar.


Oh and I bought an ipod! It is getting shipped to me and since it came with the option of free gift wrapping that's how it should arrive! Happy Day to me! I can't wait! My ipod (now) is one of the ipod mini's from when I was in high school. They don't make them anymore. Haven't for years. It has a black and grey screen and scratches all over.... and a couple dents.... and a warp in the plastic on top... it's high time I get a new one and I am so excited! Now I can fit all my music on it! :D
vs.

ooops.

So yet another thing to add to my list of broken objects by Aria
The stool in my room --- used by my lappy and table... ok so now I know why there is the rule of '4 on the floor' and no leaning!
It's not even mine.
Good grief I need to go to Ikea!
Better luck next time?
You'd think that I was going through that awful awkward phase where the arms and legs are all gangly and such. No. That is not it, just so ya know.

weird

I was searching for a new display picture for msn a couple minutes ago and found this...
