misery loves company and I'm miserable

my turn, my oldests father hasnt paid support in 5 weeks, there was a hearing scheduled today (great, at least I will get something) well they canceled it. He has a new employer (again, electricians union jobs) so they canceled the hearing. Oh and his wife is sending a check. I bet its for only one week and they will let him pay off the rest $10 a week.

In the mean time we are off to grams for supper because we are nearly out of food.
 
with 7 different diagnosed (let's call them "issues or challenges", shall we?) ahem... issues, I had to change my linen storage closet into our med storage & first aid item closet. bummer...

LOL... me too.

so sorry ams that you are having troubles. We've been there re: no food in the house.

Deadbeats really chap my hide. We have a kid working for us who was recently taken to court by his baby mama. Now we're stuck handling the hassle of making sure she gets paid. He lives with his parents, has no bills, a jacked up idiot truck, brags about his two hundred dollar sunglasses and thinks that two hundred bucks a month to his kid is generous. He's continually bad mouthing the mother because she's shacked up with her new boyfriend who he claims is paying the rent. I really don't care what the new bf is paying for, it's his kid and it takes more than two hundred bucks a month (even with free rent) to raise a child. The sight of the guy makes me sick! I hope things improve for you.

:aww I was feeling so sorry for myself and beyond depressed. Mind you I have 3 little ones following me around like baby chicks, so I can't just breakdown. Don't you just love having to be the strong unselfish one. I have several health issues, too. Wake up in pain, go to bed in pain. Don't have a descent doctor, so no meds.

We are eating beans and rice these last few weeks of the month. Thank you for sharing your pain. Now I have a reason to pray for someone else, instead of feeling sorry for myself.

Ok, I'll whine too...no one else in my house will listen to me

I have a sick cat in the hospital - $800 in debt with it, and I'm waiting to hear if my Mom has lung cancer or not. I'm pretty tired of everyone saying "it will all be ok"....I just want them to listen to me whine and say "what if it isn't???"

Yikes $800!!! I hate it when people say that too, though I'm guilty of it. What they really mean to say is 'you'll adapt'. It sounds harsh, but at least it makes whining justifiable. Adapting tends to suck. "It will all be o.k." tends to be make believe.

all around!
 
Most of my misery is self-inflicted I'm afraid. Besides the Raynaud's, there is the fibromyalgia, TMJ (from jaw reconstruction as a teen), two symptomatic intravertebral hemangiomas - try saying that three times fast - and the latest surprise from my body, polycystic kidney disease.
I'm the only one pushing myself around here. The house could go to h**l and back and my SO would still be the kind, caring provider that he is; pitching in when he can to do my chores along with his.
It's ME that pushes myself beyond my limits, cuz you just wanna feel normal and able to do what you see others your age doing, ya know?
 
Wow, I can't even say that once, fast or not. Sounds like your keeping your chin up despite yourself, not an easy task.

ok, i'll whine... I have stackybotris poisoning. I can't tell you how screwed up I am and how hard it is to do a third of what I used to. Thank goodness for chickens. They are making it so I can finally let go of "the horse thing" which has consumed my whole life since I was three. Thats 45 years. I am so glad for this group. You guys... I know I'm new here, already OVERRUN WITH CHICKENS online and in real life, but it is good to read and learn and share and I SO appreciate this place and all you people. Chin up everyone, stay strong!
