Almost the fifth
This might be my last update for a while.
Today I learned that about a month ago my grandmother's husband died. I haven't spoken to her in years. My mother was always jealous of our relationship. When I cut my parents off, they cut me off from her (And told everyone in the extended family not to contact me).
I really wish I ( Read more... ) -
Hump Day Update
This week without Kelsey hasn't been as bad as expected. Maybe I'm just accustomed to be overworked at an understaffed office.
My boss has already hired her replacement. She is an older woman with a resume full of spelling, grammatical, and formatting errors. I can already tell she is going to be a delight to train :/ She also smelled terribly ( Read more... ) -
And now a not-so-great weekend
I left work early Friday to take Daisy to the vet. What I thought was going to be a $200-$300 bill ended up being $700. Plus we still have to go back next week for her Librela injection and I need to get her some more food. Going to be one of those months where she is as expensive as rent. Its going to take me months to pay this off.
Today is ( Read more... ) -
How do you solve a problem like Daisy?
Well, Daisy being able to stay home while I am at work was short lived. It lasted literally a week. I came home yesterday and she had nearly torn through her right shoulder. I didn't take a picture, but it was bad. I still had some bandages and ointment from when we were having a similar issue with her left paw. I called the vet today and we ( Read more... ) -
A good weekend
Daisy, my beautiful and wonderful dog, is finally able to be on her own when I am at work. She has been 'telling' me for some time that she wants to stay home. I didn't listen because before, anytime I would leave her for more than a few hours she would escape or cause damage to the property. Last Thursday I knew we wouldn't be super busy. I ( Read more... ) -
Cox and the Creepy Neighbor
About a month ago I got a new neighbor in the unit behind me. The first day they moved in, they seemed a bit overeager to be friends, but ultimately harmless. We swapped numbers in case there needed to be any neighborhood related communication.
That was a mistake. They moved in on a Sunday. By that Thursday I had blocked the guy's ( Read more... ) -
How my dogs vet bills fixed my finances
Tomorrow will be mine and Daisy's 10 year anniversary.
On July 4th 2023, if you had asked me to rate my finances, I would have said they were fine. I didn't know much about finance. I knew I rarely used my emergency credit card. I knew from various headlines that x% of Americans had less than $1k saved. I had $2k, so I thought I was doing ( Read more... ) -
Master Key System Part Four
I am going through these chapters much slower than I anticipated due to the assignments at the end of each. I thought I had mastered the last one, but in the following chapter it stated the timeframe was 15-20 minutes and I have only been doing 10-15. But I am going to go forward anyway.
This chapter talks some about how God/Devil, good/bad, ( Read more... ) -
Master Key System Part Three
I am later posting this than I meant to be. Mastering the meditation exercise given at the end of part two took longer than I thought it would. Truth be told, I still have room for improvement.
Part three talks a lot more about the solar plexus, fear, and what in today's vernacular might be called, "manifestation". The meditation assignment ( Read more... )
