They aren't going to reinstate no matter what. The best I could do is go with Progressive, pay the same amount but get basic coverage instead of full coverage like I had. Plus a twice higher deductible.

Well, drive carefully. :D

But at least your premiums didn't go up, so that's good. And those deductibles? We almost always pay for small(ish) repairs out of pocket.

thank you :)
things are kind of better

I had applied for the covid unemployment, because well I mean, it's not my fault why I can't work, and my job doesn't offer to work from home...and I still got bills to pay and kids to feed.....which apparently ticked off my job so they fired me but they told unemployment that I quit...finally 4 months later unemployment sided with me...at first I got 2 checks then nothing....so I fought it and unemployment said that I owed them the money back...well *pft* that was already spent on my bills.....then a month later unemployment turned around and basically said oops our bad...I mean it's not enough to pay my bills but it's better than nothing...
then my van decided to be a pita and break down...needed a new alternator, thankful a friend paid to have it fixed because, um no, I don't got $750, everything right now is going towards the bills....
but I mean, things are ok at the moment, as long as nothing else happens :p *knocks on wood* I'll be ok for a bit longer...but really really need to get back to work, you'd think finding a work from home job during all of this would be a bit easier....but with my van fixed now, I will probably do some uber/lyft driving for a bit (just gotta get myself motivated to leave my house, which is becoming more and more difficult)
and thankfully my food stamps ap was finally approved

so it's slowly getting a bit better....my daughter was supposed to start college but now I'm not sure if they will accept her or if she'll have to wait until next year...haven't heard anything back on it...she was accepted into Ivy Tech but we never heard anything more after that
So sorry you have to go though this. Last year I was offered a job (stay at home) but it was for a insurance (health) company. No way in hell I want to be the bad guy who decides who gets what and what is denied. Do you make eliquid? It might help stay afloat on the vaping.

We have progressive. It was cheaper than State Farm many many years ago. However, they penalize(the home insurance part/underwritten by a different entity) the hubs because we don't use a credit card? WTH? If we don't have the money we don't buy it. However, in insurance that is a bad thing.

    I actually went downstairs and mixed three new to me recipes and used a couple of the new WF flavors. I mixed a banana nut bread, strawberry bake, and grapefruit lemonade.
    Good for you :thumbs: I hope you like them.

    I opened up all the vapemail. Love everything. That black vapeporn vice rda from vapor range is sharp. I should have picked up a couple more since they were under $3. Got my purple wismec luxotic surface squonker, rainbow v1.5 profile mesh rda, gold recurve dual :hubba:, my purple lustro, and coils and wire. The mailman said you sure did get a lot of packages and I said yep and there are more coming. :pervy:

    I managed to mix 2 flavors. Buttermint and caramel with sweet milk. I paid for 10mL of the Buttermint and I thought they gave me a 30mL size but no. It's 2 ounces! I hope I like it!
    The buttermint is just like a white tic tac.

    when I was shopping, progressive was the cheapest but yeah I go for the bare minimum keep my legal plan :p

    So sorry you have to go though this. Last year I was offered a job (stay at home) but it was for a insurance (health) company. No way in hell I want to be the bad guy who decides who gets what and what is denied. Do you make eliquid? It might help stay afloat on the vaping.
    :wub: thank you.... yes I do but I can't really talk about it here :pervy: ;)
    I'd have to give up being able to be a normal member here and not have access to the rest of the forum....and to me, it's not worth losing that just to be able to possibly sell my diy here...don't get me wrong, nothing against ecf, I just don't like that it's one or the other....especially if I'm adhering to the rules and not advertising outside of my specific thread...but I can see why they have that in place....but to me, hanging out with ya'll is more important

    Talked to several. No dice, won't budge.
    Once, when I couldn't get the electric company

    That's it--those little rectangular candies that you often found in a little dish at the cashier's desk in restaurants.
