One Day in the Life of a Wolf - Memorial 7-25-20

I just sent a letter to my APS social worker telling her I feel letdown. I was under the impression that I was going to be protected and now I feel I'm being thrown to the dogs.

"If" I go next Tuesday to the courthouse to pick up the eviction paperwork, and fill them out and wait for a Marshall to serve it, I and my computer will be facing the hate and revenge of tenants who have nothing to lose by trashing my computer or physically assaulting me.

And I'll have to face their wrath for thirty full days. I fear for my cats, my computer and myself.

I might have to think this over more carefully, after all.

I'll continue my harping.

You need to move out to some safe place while this goes on.

Find a relatively safe alley. Move in. If the police bother you get them to take you to jail or the homeless shelter. They'll arrange care for your cat.

I'd love to find a safe place.

*Sigh* The whole situation is gonna be really awkward to deal with Mac shouldn't have to be forced out of his own home, but if he doesn't stay somewhere safe he may be assaulted by this psycho woman and her deranged family Is there any possibility of getting a restraining order since Liz has threatened your property? Something that says she can't be within say 100 feet of you?

I sent email to APS saying nobody has come out since my July 3rd meeting with them to tell Monty his electrical hookups are illegal nor has Code Enforcement been here.

If this is the kind of support I can expect, I'm disappointed.

On the other hand, APS did say I wouldn't really qualify as a Senior till September 4 when I turn 65. Duh.

They still get paid regardless of time wasted.

I never did like, "social workers".

Well, I finally managed to see my doctor today, though I thought I'd never make it. My alarm was set for 9:00 am but it didn't go off so I awoke at 10:20 am for my 11:20 am appointment. First Miracle = I was dressed in 9 minutes and out the door. Second Miracle = the bus was there waiting for me. Third Miracle = the bus only took 25 minutes to get me within 8 blocks of my doctor's office. I hoofed the last several blocks and made it inside her office by 11:07 am. My doc didn't call me in her office till 12:30 pm grrrrrrrrrrrrr

My triglycerides were a wee high but nothing to be concerned about. My A1 hemoglobin count was 7. My doc said I should aim for 6. She had no idea what was causing my extra migraines nor my dizzy spells though both have subsided in the last month

Hooray. The wolf endures.

High Triglycerides is type IV hyperlipidemia. The Rx is lower carb diet and glycemic index stuff.

Same would be true for your glycohemoglobin.

+ stress and you got enough little additive triggers to finally blow a migraine.

Ralph's has a good sale on Fresh Foster's Farms Chicken this week. $.69/lb.

Roast one up, live on it a while. Eggs. Cheese.

Ban the b'fast cereal, crackers, bread, pasta and juices.

No carbohydrate should be mashed, juiced, dehydrated, minced, etc.

Carbs should be in their whole form like a piece of fruit or a treat, not sustenance.

G'luck. It can be done economically, just not as conveniently. Consider a crock pot to tenderize otherwise tough inexpensive meat. The Latino stores often have good prices as does Target.

I rarely buy anything for the fridge anymore since I only get to eat a portion of it.
