Two bits of good news this week: I qualified for a migraine study which I already received a $50 compensation (a two hour visit with blood drawl), and I receive another $100 for two more visits, as well as an additional $250 if I complete the e-diary after I take the provided medicine. Not bad to be getting paid for my years of suffering.
Also, I picked up a dog sitting gig this weekend, which was pretty easy and got $60 for five visits. The dogs are great, the only downside is the house is about a 20 minute drive from my house. But this and the $50 from the migraine study is an unexpected $110 I can dump towards this debt.
I'm trying a little experiment with my student loan payment. Navient does this *really* cute thing where if I set up a payment for Friday, the funds don't withdraw until TUESDAY. So they get an extra FIVE days of interest, even though the money is available and they have been withdrawing from the same account for years. ALSO, the higher interest loan of course takes an extra day. SO. With my paycheck coming on Friday, I scheduled the higher interest loan to post on Thursday (fingers crossed it won't actually bounce) and the lower interest ones to post on Friday. We'll see if either of these actually goes through this week.
