I have been living out of cardboard boxes since April, after the first time I was told my workman's comp case was going to be closed. I have eaten everything I had in my freezers and cupboards. I have turned off cable (I really miss my shows but have decided I wont be getting cable again for a very long time, if at all) and gas, and spent the whole morning snuggled under blankets with my critters (which, actually, I do enjoy, ha ha!). I am fed up with waiting for someone else to make a decision about my life and what I am supposed to do with it. So I called my lawyer and asked him to close my case, what ever he had to do; I have decided that I want to put myself through school, I AM DONE WAITING. So my lawyer will get back to me, ha ha ha ha!!! Figures!!
I'm fed up with my computer, which has been acting funky for some time now. I've done everything I can think of, including dumping my hard drive...I'm not even sure I will be able to post this blog. I have decided that I just need a new computer, I just don't have the memory on this 10 year old thing to be able to do the things I need to be able to do with it. I have filled every slot for memory sticks (if that is what they are for...I know they fit, but they haven't sped up a thing); I have uninstalled Google Chrome and am using IE, which I really don't like but I never had these problems this bad before I installed Chrome and I had gotten to the point where I have to clear the cache several times a day, still I have to wait 20 minutes for anything to open, IE is just a bit faster. It has to be the lack of memory because if I had viruses dumping the hard drive should have taken care of that. So I'm looking for a new computer I can afford, with tons of memory!
I am REALLY fed up with getting sick, so much so that after this last round I went and got a flu shot, for the first time in my life. I know why I got so sick this time, because I haven't really eaten much in the way of fresh anything. Processed canned and boxed food lasts a long time, which is why I keep it for emergencies, but that is all I have been living on for most of this year. So when I went to get the flu shot, I also bought fresh fruit and veges and even a bunch of V8....I will spend the next couple of weeks eating salads. Not sure if that will help with the head full of snot, I'm hoping the climate in Nevada will help that, it's just too dang wet here in Washington.
And I am totally fed up with this little town I live in now. As long as I am on workman's comp I can't even volunteer, which I could if I were on unemployment looking for work. There are ZERO jobs here, and the closest town that has any jobs is 40 miles away. I don't have a problem with minimum wage jobs, as long as I can afford a minimum wage job, but I can't travel 80 miles a day on that, and I truly need something to do to keep myself busy. I was going to go to Occupy Kelso (which is the little town next to mine) but when I got so sick last week I knew I couldn't go out and spend any time in the rain. My resistance is too low right now to do that.
So here I am, still waiting. And now that I have voiced my personal rantings I think I will call my lawyer again and just bug him until he closes my case and I can get on with my life.
