OK, here’s what’s happened

Sunday, April 18th, 2010

Welcome back!

This is what has happened so far these past two weeks:

One - our neighbor ended up in the ER and then needed someone to come in and talk to him so the doctor would know that he was acting normal. Evidently he was in such pain that he didn’t/couldn’t give much information. He was normal and explained to the doctor why he didn’t talk much.

Two - our mom fell in her apartment, hit her head and scared the begeebers out of her housekeeper. CT scans, Xrays later, she went home. She was okay.

Three - my husband had an infection in his arm that looked as if it was growing. He had played with one of our cats and had gotten a slight scratch when she had gently chewed on his arm. He is a Diabetic, has heart trouble and other stuff so that infection was a definite RED FLAG that called for immediate attention from medical personnel. He got some antibiotics after a big search for something that he wasn’t allergic to. The medicine/s that is/are usually assigned for infected cat bites, he is allergic to, to such an extent that they endanger his life.

Four - neighbor ended up in the ambulance and needed a ride home afterwards.

Five - mom was sitting in her walker as I pushed her towards her apartment. When she got the walker, we were both told that it could be used that way by her and anyone with her. This was said by the person who sold it to her. We didn’t understand why Medicare refused to reimburse her for it. We learned why that was, it collapsed when we got to the mat in front of her door. She went down backwards, hit her head on the cement threshold, got very scared, scared the begeebers out of me, her son, and the poor housekeeper, again. Both my husband and myself had to stay with her all night and wake her up every 2 hours since the back of her head was involved, just in case of further symptoms. She got through the night safely, but she was told that she needed to make an appointment to see her regular doctor because of a suspicious lump inside her head, behind her sinuses, that was found. We still do not know what it is. We will find out on Tuesday.

THAT is what has been going on for the last two weeks. EEEEK

The people in the ER actually recognized us and asked why we were there again the last 3 times.

No Fun at all

Wednesday, January 20th, 2010

We have been going through so much junk lately that it is trying to take all of our fun away.

First my husband is having pain and other stuff going on. Our vehicle had, yes, had been having trouble with a very bad leak in its gas line, and now our neighbor. He is getting a divorce from the druggie from hell, our other neighbor is a gossip and has been bugging the first poor man a lot.

Oy vey……I though that Payton Place was off the TV. Well, it seems like if it isn’t one thing it is another.

What is it that used to been done when you wanted to say something naughty and didn’t want to actually use the language? Oh yeah…=n09426p] ; a^&%()^&^

Oy Vey

Saturday, August 22nd, 2009

Yes, that is how I want to start this one.

Where we live, it is apartments on half of a street that has no end, just a circle. A lot of the people care about what is going on and about each other. One of our neighbors care, but doe not always get the information correct. (I wonder if I could use pressure washers and wash out his ears so he could get the information correct.)

Anyway, he gave us some startling news last night. Today we found out that he was all wrong in what he thought had happened. We really do love him, he is in his late 70’s, I just wish that he would listen carefully and get his information correct.

We have learned over the years, that when he says something, we should listen, and then look around to make sure that he did not misunderstand. He is not a trouble maker, just hard of hearing.

Who Is Your Neighbor?

Saturday, April 18th, 2009

Do you live in a place where your neighbor is wonderful and friendly?

What do you do if your neighbor is someone that you do not want to talk to? I’ve been there before. Of course you could always move. The commercial that I wrote abut previously would make me want to check out aluminum fence installation. Of course when the woman does not have all of the cold cream on her face, she might be nice. Who knows.

I have lived in a bunch of different places and had all sorts of neighbors. Sometimes it is not easy to move from one place to another. Where we live now is nice and our neighbors are the type that happen to be fun to talk to.

So, who is your neighbor? The woman with the cold cream might not be so bad after all. :)

Busybody

Saturday, October 25th, 2008

Have you ever had a nosy neighbor that seems to think that every body else’s business happens to be theirs too? Well, where we live there are a couple like that. One is old and lonely, I can understand that. The other is way younger than I am, and almost the age to be a ‘gasp’ daughter to me.

She has a boyfriend that likes to go around and try to intimidate the other residents of the apartment complex when he thinks that someone might have insulted his girlfriend. What he doesn’t realize is that he is very close to being banned from the property and she is close to being asked to move. Lonely people sometimes do strange things. When they are not lonely, but happen to be busybodies, what do you do?

I am not so sure myself. Feeling like saying they should mind their own business does not make friends or influence enemies in the right manner. Meanwhile they get on other’s nerves and put her residency at risk. How do you say NOYB (none of your business) in a nice manner? I am stumped. Well, at least I can blow some steam in a safe manner and have a chance to think about it. What do you think? Be nice, please. :)
