How are you today?

@Ruthanne Do you have a phone number for them? You might try calling them and sort of just chatting about how/when, etc., and your sincere wish to get in asap. You know...like call once a week or so and maybe even get lucky and get the same person every time. If they feel like they "know" you and your circumstances, you could magically move up the list.

I've known that to happen in the senior housing in my hometown.

Just a suggestion. Might sound sort of pushy, but the squeaky wheel gets the grease.

Yes I have their phone number. Good 💡 ideas! I have to get my physical therapy before I call them. I can't lift much of anything and leg problems too . Can't walk right either. I am a mess 😆
 
@Ruthanne
Those are good ideas from @Georgiagranny

Plus, i do think that HUD does allow the housing authority or other landlord, to set their own priorities, with adjusting their wait lists, and they regularly and commonly do.

So it's worth reminding them, as often as you're comfortable doing so, that your present living situation is not healthy or okay, and causes added anxiety.

In ANY case we're all rooting for you. 💗🙂

We had the heaviest snowfall of the year yesterday and the above freezing temperatures turned everything to heavy slop. It was a challenge and tiring to walk in. It’s still here today, though should disappear fast if the high of 15C/60F happens.

It’s going to be a busy week. Something every day and company arriving on Saturday. I need to plan a menu.

Last night was the worst day here so far. I don't want to go into that because it's too upsetting. Listening to a good album on Spotify. I wish I had a friend who would let me stay there for awhile. Happy St Patrick day 🤞 🎉

Do you have something you can record them with. Maybe on your phone. You could talk to management and let them listen. It’s probably too late at night to call management so they can hear directly what’s happening.

If you have a recording, you could go to the new place and let know what you’re dealing with.

Thanks. The noise of them jumping up and down real hard and slamming doors I think they might not know what they are listening to on a phone recording. That's what was going on in the bedroom at 3:30 am. The bedroom sounded like an earthquake or something similar. They were also doing that in the living room. May not sound that bad but it had me very upset. Honestly I am scared of what they might do tonight.

I hope they get warts and ugly toenail fungus :mad:
 
I was feeling pretty good today because of four compliments that I received.

My hair? No. My clothes. No.

My grocery trolley. Yes.

I knew I wasn’t parking near the grocery store, so put the trolley in my trunk and walked over to the store. It is a nicer than average cart. I take my compliments where I can get them.

Yeah, it also gets depressing when you can't open the doors and windows. Lately it's been staying hot well into the night.

I do remember living in Colorado and digging my car out of snow to go to work. That was not fun at all.

Any extreme weather is hard on us senior folks 😸
 
I'm awake, I'm alive but feel like death.

I had chicken fried rice at work and managed to dose myself a good one with gluten so I feel pretty awful today and I was finally starting to feel a little better 🤬

Not much on the agenda today. A few dishes and a shower. Other than that just resting and playing video games.
 
High of 91 F today. Going to set my Hummingbird feeders out and get them filled, ready to go.
Had about a 2 hour phone call from son in California last night. He plans coming out a week from now
to look at 4-5 houses for sale. Can't wait to hug him!
Spring is here, hummers are coming, Peaky Blinders begins and son coming.... My day Is so blessed!
