Feds fund $137M for NY unemployed

The Business Review (Albany)

New York state’s unemployment program will receive $137 million under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act, officials said Thursday.

The largest portion of the funding — $120 million — will be used for unemployment benefits. The remainder will be dedicated to increasing staffing within the state Department of Labor, including call centers and technology improvements.

Unemployment in the Albany area was at 7.3 percent while the statewide level was 8.1 percent in March, according to the most recent report from the Department of Labor.

Back in Black (well, black workout gear)

I know, I know, haven't checked in for a bit. I'm back now!

First off, gramma is still in the hospital. I talked to her on Mother's Day and she is lucid, but I was still sad when I talked to her and had to rush off the phone because I was crying. I mailed her a letter the next day, and I have another one to mail tomorrow. I think they'll keep her cheered up while she's there.

My parents are currently on their way to Croatia from Greece (nice life, right?). I'm still unemployed, technically. I'm applying for jobs every day, but not hearing much. I did begin my other 2 businesses, so I'm reading and starting to get out there and sell.

I currently have no health insurance. Like 70% of Americans, I also don't have dental insurance. I'm working with AmeriPlan (the ads are on my page) to enroll Americans that need coverage with our plans. I couldn't afford COBRA, who can? I used the plan 10 years ago when I wasn't insured and it's great, I'm using it again now, and it lowered my Dr. visit a few weeks ago to $45 instead of $100. My prescription was lowered from $104 to $41. It covers vision/medical/dental/chiro/prescriptions.
Plans start at $19.95 for an entire household anywhere in the nation. Visit my site and tell everyone you know who might be under insured, or not insured at all. I can help them! http://mybenefitsplus.com/sjwaller.

I've been in the gym 5 days a week for 2 weeks now and eating really great. I'm starting to feel better already and I'm determined to get to the Caribbean in fall. That's my semi long-term goal with sales. My short term is just to pay my rent. Ugh!

Anyway, I'll be back in a few days to tell you about my first sale. I guarantee it!

Ciao babes!
