Dear PJ,
I live in Napa, the town where everyone seems to go about with their noses in
the air, after all, we grow WINE grapes! As if that really matters... :oP
Here, a studio apartment rents for upwards of $1000 a month. I only get $627
a month from SSI. Won`t work out.
By the way, this home I`m in, which my folks bought for 27 thou back in 1971,
is now worth upwards of Half a Million!!!!!! Silly, isn`t it??!!
I prefer to be back in Utah, with my children, grandchildren, and friends,
all of whom like me and want me back!! I`m still looking in the Provo paper
online, something will come up.
My sister is actually nicer since she realizes I WILL move rather than put
up with her abuse. I was able to speak calmly with her a while ago, and told
her how terribly her yelling hurts me, and that I have NEVER had abuse like
that from anyone, not even my Ex husband!!
I`m trying hard to keep on keeping on...
Fortunately I have some good friends here, too, who have helped me. After the
first attack, I spent 3 weeks with Cathie, during which time I went to the
hospital with pneumonia for 2 days. I hadn`t had any CS during the attack
period, and the normal flora in my lungs went wild...I was really sick.
My chiropractor, who is also a kinesiologist , told me later that pneumonia
is caused by either grief or anguish, and boy, had I had great anguish!!!
Thanks everyone, for the kind words and support!
Love,
Marshalee
I agree with the lady who said you need to get some help and good counsel.
We can't afford to lose you or not have you hitting on all 8, Marshalee!!
Regardless of your sister's circumstances, you must remember that nothing,
that's NOTHING, gives anyone abuse rights. And your sister is taking advantage
of your reluctance to leave her to abuse you. Also, you can get a different
roommate if your financial situation demands it. But it just may be possible
to get a small place of your own. And yes, I do mean small. Some small studio
apts. do exist. The owners will be glad to have someone of good character who
is realistic in what she expects of the place. You do have options. They may
not be all that desirable, but they will all be better than what you presently
are enduring. You can make a change for the better. Frankly, your sister
sounds like a very undisciplined person!! C'mon, Marshalee. Do what needs
to be done and be done with it. Very best wishes, pj
