I feel like Hell and kept attempting to post you a message, but then thought how rude because I might not be able to reply. Really, I'm being serious your timing is amazing. I finally manage to perform the onerous task of turning on the computer and there you were. I wish I could be so conscientous.
Yes I was going to go to the Doctors today, not for any "pam" drugs, but for something to help me sleep (no I do not land softly) But you see, My dear Mother who is angry at me for being in the hospital (yes) and "putting her through this" purposefully did not tell me that the disability office called while I was in the hospital, and wanted a receipt from me or they would not be direct depositing my cheque.
So yesterday, I actually went to the store, was happy to think at least I'll be able to get some coffee, and soap, and a desperately needed haircut, and felt almost "normal"
Until I went to pay and there was no money in my account. So no prescription for me, no bus fare to go to my mothers, have to wait for My poor father to drive me, am having sobbing fits of guilt for my poor father who should not have to bail me out constantly because my Mother is cruel, especially at my age.Now, the blessed man, feels like he should not go on "holidays" to see his dying sister, as he'd planned 6 months ago, because he is so worried about me. He had decided to let me stay here while he was gone,but its an awful "over 60" complex with a committee that has to approve everything including what color flowers people plant on their identical porches.
Oh and yesterday there was the powdered laundry detergent scandal, which required 4 type written letters to the "committee" Some poor unwary person commited the sin of using powdered soap not liquid and you has the potential to clog the drains because of all the fillers in it and my goodness who would be the person responsible for paying the plumber should this occur...So you can only imagine what would happen If he left and I stayed here even if I was practically invisible nevermind if I have to leave in the middle of the night to go to the hospital. Oh I wish I was joking. You should have seen what happened last time I visited and encouraged the proliferation of rabbits, by feeding a little wild one a piece of celery I was overjoyed to see something "Alive" especially seeing there is only about a 2 foot cube of grass, the rest is cement.I feel awful for my Dad, he deserves his holiday and I wish I could just "get better" but I can't. I look on deaths door and I see the concern on his face and it breaks my heart.
I'm sorry,Dinah, I was afraid this would happen, and now if I put How are You? at the end of this it would look like a joke but I've been reading your posts and I do care, actually I was hoping I could pretend to invite you over, and you could pretend that you couldn't make it today, but maybe next week.....
