Oh this sounds awful for you to have to deal with Barbara.
I am sorry that she is so abusive and threatening.
I am glad that you are meeting with your lawyer soon.
Are you still able to see your DV counselor?
Have you a regular therapist that you could talk to?
Most of us who have mental health issues have therapists to talk to.
They can help you talk through all of this.
It sounds really hard to handle.
You are doing well keeping up with it all.

Beth,

I will have to check to see when my next appointment is with my DV counselor. It would cost me too much money to see a private counselor. My DV counselor is too busy to see me too often. She is free though as she's a goverment worker.

I have decided to go ahead and file charges against her after hearing and noticing some things later today. She threatened the other neighbor today so she would not testify against her in my case. Also, I have good reason to believe she has the lady across the street from me watching me leave my apartment. The lady across the street doing this would love to see something bad happen to me since she got talked to by detectives for stealing my credit card number.

Sounds like you live with a bunch of undesireables.
HOpefully you will find a new place soon.

Hi Beth,

Yes, the neighbors are less disirerables.

I can not decide whether or not to charge her for yesterday or not. I believe I can use it as an ace in the hole though cause it's not like I have to charge her within a short time I believe.

Dear Befuddled,
I see that you are dealing with quite a bit.
You seem to be handling it as well as can be expected.
Somehow you ended up in a snake pit.
Keep strong. Remember who you are and what keeps you going and keeps you happy. Focus on a happy moment here and there when you can.

I hope that you can work it out.

M.

Thank you.

Hi all,

I am sad today because it has come to the point of the onwer of my apartment complex finally trapping the wild cats. I tried for months last year to try to get the one lady who feed them back them to have the animal volunteer orgainization CARE to take care of the wild cats shots and to free them of fleas. The fleas were infesting hte whole neighborhood and I have scars from where they bit me and I scratched. THe lady told me 5 times that the cats were here before me. I even got the lady from CARE to talk to this lady. The lady told the CARE worker that the cats don't come in my yard. All becuase of a woman named Pat who is like a Queen Bee around the neighborhood is in good with the owners that her crownies think they can walk all over people. Well, because of their attitude the cats are not paying for it with being trapped and carried to the shelter

how sad. poor kitties. i understand how you must feel Barbara.

you tried. at least you did try to help the kitties. you tried hard too. i appreciate that. it must be so frustrating for you as well as sad.

it is just not fair.
