I Can See Clearly, Now, How Broke I Am…

What a day! I had an eye exam and learned I have .75 prescript in my right eye and 1.0 in my left and astygmatism in one eye… so, 1st time ever… glasses and contacts (~ $500).

Also, my last unemployment check arrived with the note (found on the EDD site online):

Based on the laws governing this program, California does not qualify for this extension in the absence of further Congressional action. That means the last payable week of FED-ED benefits is the week ending June 12, 2010. EDD cannot issue any more FED-ED benefit checks even if someone may have a balance left on their full FED-ED claim.

Crap, no more income at all… nothing. I have one wedding in August, but it’s a smaller one. No clue what to do now.
