Let me just sum up this past week as SHIT!
I found out on Tuesday while going to deliver eggs to the PO for shipping the A/C in my car is not working properly. It will work on high but nothing else. I had this issue when I purchased it and had a friend replace the thermostat which has only lasted three years.
Wednesday while eating dinner I bit down on something hard and broke off a part of a molar. This happened to me a few months ago and ended up costing me $2,000 for a root canal.
Thursday I was looking over EBay and saw a photo that looked much like one of mine. I did a little research and sure enough, someone stole photos I had posted on Flickr and using them in their photos as their own to sell hatching eggs.
Friday I woke up to take Mom to a Dr's appointment, her back has been hurting her, to find my bedroom and another area of the downstairs saturated with water. We had an early morning downpour which must have caused it but the big question is how did it leak in.
I'm still in the process of cleaning up everything from the flooding. The only help what so ever has been my loving Mother who washed my clothing that got soaked because they were stacked on my bedroom floor awaiting to be put in their place. One of the closets that also got soaked had books stored in boxes. I lost several fond childhood books, comic books, and collectible magazines. Moving all the stuff out of the water was the biggest chore and boy does my body feel it.
They say bad things happen to people who deserve it and good well...you know the story. I know in my heart and mind I AM a good person so this must have happened to make me a stronger individual. Out of all of this I have learned it is nearly impossible to count on friends and family because one else, besides Mom, offered to help me out. I would have and have always been there to lend a hand if possible. I posted on Facebook about the catastrophe and I got four responses from gals that I think the world of and must be true friends, but too far away to help unless they were to drive a very long distance or fly. I would bet had I asked them they would have been here. I have Aunts, Uncles, Cousins, Nephews and a Sister who live only miles away from me and did not even bother to lend a hand or to call my Mom to see how her house was, being that I live here under her roof. My Mom is my rock and it hurts me more to know that family would think so little and not even think to call her to check on the status of her home that is leaked in water.
These roads we travel in life and not always easy and I know that. It makes my heart heavy to know that these people I have called friends and family are nothing special and for whatever reason or the other want to stay in touch with me, I suppose because they know who they can call on when they need something. I was once told I needed to "grow a thicker skin" and it is instances like this that cause it to flourish and and my skin to thicken , realizing who is real and genuine and for those who are selfish and heartless to push out of my life.
Tomorrow is a new day with more work to be done. I am going to do my best to have an enjoyable day with as little of stress as possible.
More later...
