anxiety ridden

had a meeting with the Vocation Rehab counselor this morning; everything is pretty much on hold until i secure housing & income for myself before i can move forward with technical school training.  i have to talk to the administrator at the shelter to see if they will let me stay past my 60-days until the new semester starts in august.  if she says no, then i'm back to Vinita until i can find a place to live.
the counselor did say since Vinita is still in Cherokee Nation district they still may be able to help me if i find a school around there where i can get some office administration training.  most of these programs are at least a year long; so i will have to find housing either on or off campus for that year.

while i was there at Cherokee Nation complex, i stopped by Day Training to see where i was on the list for day jobs....well apparently all but one page of my paperwork has disappeared!!  so now i have to start all over again since my paperwork was never entered in their system and they can't find the original hard copies that i turned in to them.  the receptionist apologized for the screw-up because whoever was at the front desk should have handed it over to one of the counselors there in the office and it wasn't done.  for some reason one page was there (the job search sign-in sheet) but nothing else was found.  i'm just hoping no one took the other pages from the office since i did have personal information on it (social security numbers, date of birth, etc.)

one of the pages i have to re-do has to be signed/stamped by WorkForce, and they are closed until next tuesday, because they are re-locating and monday is a holiday!

i'm trying not to be too pissed off at this display of incompetence right now.  the personal info on the paperwork is what bothers me more than anything.

another update: was denied general assistance from Cherokee Nation for this month. the committee said it was a 'one time deal' when they helped me last month, which was the $86 check they sent me.
i had a bad feeling this was going to happen.
