How has your week been?
week been kinda off due to planing for surgery on August 6th and well things with apartment too kinda been hard as we see how much we not have others offline we can count on when needed
What's something fun you're planning to do in the near-future?
not really sure other thing got a few new things to paint and this might sound odd but got a thing of bubbles to blow for our cat she like to try to get them we do it inside as she not allowed outside but she likes watching them and at times battling at them
@stormieandpaws
Hi there, good to see you again. I hope your surgery goes well in a couple weeks and that it improves your quality of life. 🙏 What's been happening with the apartment lately?
I can totally imagine a cat watching and batting at bubbles. 😀 That sounds really nice, and that's a creative practical solution to finding an engaging indoor activity for her.
@QuietMagic
thanks we did the pre op today so that good got the all clear from main doctor to have the surgery also they was able to get the stay overnight after surgery from medicaid too so looks like it set up and well cleared to have it
stuff with apartments on going been cleaning getting rid of stuff seem like a endless job due to can only do a little at a time home aid will take out trash and do light cleaning but she not allowed to do deep cleaning and boxing up stuff to get rid of it so we still trying to do all that not sure when next inspection going to be they not really give us much time like get note in door on Friday and they come in on Tuesday so that make it hard too
yes paws like when we blow bubbles also keeps her moving too she 10yr now and sleeps more then she use to sleep so we try to do things to help her be active more
hope you doing well
@stormieandpaws
Great, glad that everything's good to go for the surgery. 👍
Ah, makes sense--you're trying to clean so that you're prepared for inspection if needed, but there are constraints on how much cleaning you're able to do. (I wonder if the people doing the inspection really look that closely or care about light cleaning vs. deep cleaning.)
Things are good on my end. 💜
@QuietMagic
sadly the Manger here wants everything pwefect and we have to much stuff she say she has threatened before to evict us due to all the things we have but we everyday get lots of bags of stuff out of here but she was calling us a hoarder but the people who deal with that told her we not a hoarder too
so she into having very little stuff but also she not home much and due to being disabled we home a lot so our craft and art stuff we do a lot it helps us cope with living alone and not getting out much
@stormieandpaws
That sounds pretty stressful. 🙁 (And a bit unfair if people who know what hoarding actually looks like are saying that you're not hoarding but the manager is still finding fault and making eviction threats.) You said that the home aide isn't allowed to box things up to remove them?
That makes sense though that if you're at home most of the time, you'd have more things so that you're able to work on arts and crafts.
@QuietMagic
thanks home aid can only do light house keeping like dishes taking out trash and she also does our laundry she does that at her home to save us money she also take us shopping and to get meds so she helps a lot without her we not be able to get trash to the dumpst as it to far away from our apartment so that big help
but manger is away nit picking to but we think that wrong to do as not everyone lives like her and she not home much at all due to she works here from 9am to 5pm most days we do not get out much so yes we have lots of art stuff sewing stuff and craft stuff but also we not have like shelf to put things on so lot of it in like totes but it not in walk away we have more then small paths to wall on the people who deal with hoarders said place cluttered some but told her true hoarders have one or more rooms they can not use due to stuff also none of our stuff goes from floor to ceiling as far as stacked so they told her we not hoarder but she still calling us that
she been threatening to evicted us for 4 years we been here 8 yrs we move but we have no way to do it as cost a lot to move we love to move downstate were we get more help medically
@stormieandpaws
"we think that wrong to do as not everyone lives like her"
Yeah, absolutely. Not everyone is a neat freak or has an empty house--or has shelves to put things on, in your case. It seems like it should be a personal preference thing as long as it's not a fire hazard (it's not since you have small paths to walk on) or affecting other people (e.g. attracting insects/rodents).
That's actually good to hear that she's been threatening for 4 years (but hasn't done anything). 😊
@QuietMagic
agree with you mostly she a neat freak like if you have things at all in boxes she freaks out even if there just agnsted the walls we have a lot of clear areas as we can get mobility scooter in and out both our doors and can like move freely about without falling over stuff other then the cat and she at times will dart out like from under table and we fall over her at times lol so it not that bad our HUTCH worker from community mental health also been in apartment she say it not that bad too
so government people been in our apartment too yes it cluttered some we agree with that part and we got rid of stuff we not use still slowly doing that too.
hope you doing well
@QuietMagic
