[align=center]Even though my 2010 blog is so short, I am the only one here with a 2010 blog so here is the 2011 one!
Here is the link to the other one:
Sarah's Zoo 2010
I do not start this blog on a positive note. I will leave most of the details out but tonight I had a final explosion with my verbally abusive boyfriend. Needless to say, he's not my boyfriend anymore. But, my rent subsidy is at risk because of him. I'm hoping my worker here in my building can help me sort that out. She is willing to try. I have rent-geared-to-income housing because of being on a disability pension. If I lose my subsidy, I can't pay the market rent for my unit and would lose the apartment. It would mean moving back 'home' to a very negative environment. To top it off, that environment is not wheelchair friendly. I would lose my animals too! I will do everything I can to make sure none of that happens. A worker here is going to write a letter on my behalf. She doesn't know yet what happened here tonight and she won't be in until Monday morning. But she knows about issues. We were talking today and she was waiting for my word on Monday anyway about whether or not a letter would be needed. It is urgently needed now but of course no one is in their offices until Monday anyway. It's a long, complicated story but I have to iron it out so it doesn't mess up my life any more than it already is.
On top of it all, I have a nasty chest infection. I went to the doctor today and got meds for it so it shouldn't get any worse.
I will end this not-so-cheerful beginning with a little funny:
Milo was running on the floor last night and he grabbed a plastic bag and went running under the couch with it at record speed. He never does that. That little stinker knew he shouldn't have it and knew I'd take it. Of course, I did. I dove for the floor and under the couch and wrestled it from him. If he swallowed any or suffocated himself or something...no way was I letting him keep it. I'm not sure how he even got hold of it! So he comes out again and this time grabs one of my shoes and runs that under there. Now he's playing games. I snatched that too. Sent some of his cardboard toys under instead, much better for chewing. He WANTED to be chased the little stinker. Honestly...you'd think he was a little kid! LOL!
