Wow Lin! That is a lot to go thru. I think I would have opted to keep my voice too. Glad no more naked teens for you. That can be stressful in & of itself!
Have you applied for food stamps? With not much income you should qualify. And remember that is what they were first established for anyway to help families & people when times are down & then when you get back on your feet you don't use them anymore. We used them after our accident for a couple of yrs. I got $10/mo for 6 mos, most people said it wasn't worth it to them, but it was to me. I used it at the bread store it bought the whole mos worth of bread & buns & a few pastries as treats. Plus it kept Scott on the free lunch program & on AHCCCS(state medical insurance). Thank goodness because 1 mos before it ran out his appendix ruptured. And I could not get ex to put him on his insurance until I could afford insurance again.
I hear you on the one job mind, mine is the same. Today he is trying to get his boat running. Him & Scott are going fishing Thurs & he wants to have more than his trolling motor to use.
We have been in the 40's the last 2 nights too, but tomorrow it is supposed to go back up to 80's & 50's, then 90's on Weds again!!!
I wish the 70's would stay for awhile.
I took my cat in this afternoon & had him put to sleep, he had feline luekemia & was not doing well at all, he had lost over 5 lbs. We will be burying him after while out near the garden. He loved to lay out there in my asparagus bed & in between tomato plants. So somewhere outside the garden I will bury him.
