Really?!?

I hate it when you are honest and then it comes back to bite you in the butt! So I have to report twice month to the unemployment office about working, how I am doing with applying for jobs, if I was able to. Well the weeks it asked about this last time were December 19 - January 1 my kids were out for Christmas. One of the questions were you able to work and I said no, childcare. (Which was an option and obviously wasn't a lie).

Well I get a message from them saying I need to call in order for my unemployment to process. I call. The woman says you checked no, why. I said the way the question was worded it there was no, I would have found childcare, if offered a job. So she changed it and it was processed. Money deposited.

Today we get a letter in the mail that says the claim has now been denied due to saying I didn't have childcare, not by the unemployment agency buy by my old employer and now that we have already received the money (and spent on bills) we have to pay them back! Can someone please tell me where we are going to come up with $815 to pay them back?

Plus the $250 I am going to pay to get just one of my 3 prescriptions tonight on top of the $75.80 it cost me just to go to the dr today???

Gosh I hope this job I interviewed for this week is the answer to our prayers!
