Its hard to think when your cold

Its getting cold, and colder, each day here. And its hard to think about anything when your cold. Or at least I find it hard to think about anything that isn't about how cold I am.

There is still no furnace in my little hobbit hole, our local heating oil supplyer refuses to make a delivery until the construction crew in charge of putting in the fuel tanks finish with the second tank (which is still being waited on), and last night what fuel we had ran out so there is no hot water ether.

I haven't even been able to curl up with a good book to help wait it out because all I do is shiver. That is when I'm not helping others winterize there homes. Not that it helps me any.

And the fun dosn't stop there. The past three months I've been filling out paperwork and doing what I have to to quilify for the NYS grants for flood victoms. And I can't say that it was fun doing so.

The other day I found out that who ever was in charge of my claim at the NYSDoL never inputted my information, so the process was stalled and I basicaly had to reaply.

And it looks like I'm going to have to turn down the larger small business grant because of some restrictions on money use that I don't think I can meet. So I'm going to be back to square one again in building up.
