Saturday Morning
March 24, 2018
Well I am up. I slept fairly good last night. I was up at 2 but went back to bed. I was up for good at 5. I feel fairly rested. Neck is giving me problems. I must have slept on it wrong or something. It hurts like a son of a b especially when I nod my head back and forth. Other than that I am feeling ok.
I had a fairly good day yesterday. Anne and I went to Walmart curtesy of the van driver. She walked with me while I shopped and that calmed my nerves. I bought a lot of groceries and cleaning suppl/ies. For groceries I bought fourteen tv dinners, a pound of chopped ham and a pound of swiss cheese, I also bought two loaves of bread. Anne was showing me these crock pot meals but they were two expensiv e. I think they were $9.99 or something like that. Still they look good. I might buy a couple of them next month. Anyway also bought a package of great value sausage paddies., two cases of Sprite, a package of great value cheese and some other goodies. Total grocery items came to something like $80
Then I bought some cleaning supplies. I bought laundry detergent, 409, Clorox with bleach, pine sol, and a few other items. I had budgeted $30 for cleaning supplies and this came to $25
I had a hard time walking around Wal Mart. I was very short of breath. My knees were hurting. Then the anxiety was building up. I was worried that I wouldn’t have enough money to pay for my stuff. Also the same old worry that I would get stuck up; there and not have a way home. I kept pretty close to Anne and she was a big help. Still I was going through a lot of anxiety
Well the van driver came and picked us up. We got hopme in one piece. I put my groceries away. I have a frig full of food. It is a good feeling at the end of the month. But I was really tired after the shopping expidtion. I sat in front of the computer and chilled out. I was waiting for my worker to come. I thought she was coming at 1:30 or something. She never showed up until later. Byu then it was too late . I asked her if she could come Satuyrday and she said no problem.
I invited her in. Anne was here. They sat around and talked. Stephanie was going on about her new client. She said the new client had a lot of laundry . She did two loads and ran out of time. At the end of her shift the client wanted Stephanie to clean out her frig. She just didn’t have the time to do yesterday. Then she was talking about her rent. She is behind on her rent. She said that she now has three clients and should be making about #250 a week. She said that she would be able to get caught up in her rent. She also talked about getting on disability. She has a lawyer for that. She was going on about how everyone tells her not to work while filing for disability. If you are able to work then you do not need disability. Her lawyer was saying that she can make so much a month She also was saying how she can’t understand why her case is taking so long. She thinks the lawyers are dragging it out so they can get more money.
I was pretty tired yesterday and not in too good a mood to listen to her probl/ems. I was telling Anne about how she always has a problem of some kind. Yesterday it was about her check. Her company payroll screwed up and she wasn’t going to get paid for a weeks worth of workj. She was going on to Anne about that. Then she was saying that she did get her check. It went straight to her bank account. I said I was glad she got that straighted out.
She went on and on to Anne. She stayed for about a half hour then left. I asked what time she was coming and she said around 10 I said that will be good. After she left I decided to order subs. I ordered a 13inch vewggie sub and a 13inth Steqk and cheese sub from Fox’s Pizza. I was telling Anne we are living the high life at the end of the month., Pizza one nioght, subs another and grtocery shopping at the end of the month. We are doing pretty good.
We ate our subs and then Anne stayed to watch the news. She left around 6. I tried to read for a while but was kind of tired so I went tp s;ee[ ear;u/
All in all yesterday was a good day. I got out of my apartment, got groceries, ordered subs for supper.
