 Monday, August 09

Proverbs 19:1111 A person’s wisdom yields patience; it is to one’s glory to overlook an offense.

Turned my bar into a memorial think it looks pretty cool.  I have sent an individual pic of daddy to be printed, so that he can be like gator and mom.

I have miniature urns of all three.  Gator and daddy's Letter from the president are on Gator's amp.  

How do you remember your loved ones?  

Got MRI results

 Hey all hope everybody is having a GREAT week so far, here in the SW it has been so hot, under EXTREME HEAT ADVISORY until 9p, Wed night.   

Got the MRI results from my fall in JUNE FINALLY

Complete shoulder repair.   Not what I wanted to hear, although something had told me about 2 days before that was what was needed.    HOWEVER, due to my age the ortho doesn't want to do this surgery just yet so not have to go thru again in 15 yrs.   The 26th of this month going in for Orthoscopic, he is going to clean some of the old damage off  the bones, and try to repair one tendon, one is attached the other 2 are not fixable     The one may not be repairable.    The down time will be 1 to 2 weeks depending on if the 1 tendon can be fixed.   Prognosis is with this type of surgery 1 to 5 yrs   I feel like if I get even 3 months being pain free then it will be worth it.   

My fall finished it off,  this has been going on since a very bad car wreck in 2009 and at that time DR wouldn't order an MRI  .   

I will still try to do some blogs,  this is the reason I haven't done too many lately  5 minutes on my laptop and my arm feels like its about to fall off.

Please say some prayers for all involved

Feeling MAD

My landlord has been having a field day this week already and its only Tuesday.

Monday August 2 he verbally threatened he was going to tear down my fence, ok I have a pygmy goat who enjoys eating weeds and such.  I also have a German shepherd she knows where she can and can't go however the chihuahua doesn't know those out of fence boundaries.  This was at 830 in the morning .  Had some errands to do, came home landlord still here  he then gets a rifle/shotgun I wasn't looking at the difference,  and started waving it around (most states call this branishing a firearm  and stated he was ready to take me out anytime

I didn't sleep hardly any last night.    Today Tuesday August 3 I get up and the fence is gone before I realize and let the animals out what a fiasco with my goat.  I went to try to talk to landlord, he stated " I have never hit a woman and your going to be my first,"  MY response if your going to hit me I may be the first but guarantee I will be the last woman you ever lay a hand on or verbally/mentally abuse.  I asked him "does this make you feel like a manly man going around abusing women"  Now he is a piece of cake.

I have told him what is going on, with SS and he calls me a liar.  

I need out of this rathole before something serious happens.   I have no income,  I set up a go fund me account then I become a scammer,    How am I spose to move with no income?  I am to the point of just getting out of here.  It will be hard but my life is more important.   Called county Sheriff and they never showed up.  

Please say some prayers and hope that they are answered ASAP  I have called every agency around for resources to help me pay my rent.   The county I live in  in KS has very little resources for outside finaning.

Thank you in advance
