Man I miss my dogs. I have no one to cuddle with in the mornings. When I FaceTimed them last night they started whining and crying Roll Call 132. My husband said my dog wouldn’t even sleep in the bed. He just sits by the door Roll Call 132. The pup is doing better he’s more of a family dog where Henry is all mine. We have a crazy bond. I know it sounds silly but I got him just after my beloved lab got hit by a car. He was sweet and friendly and we fell in love at first sight. I still can’t believe how lucky I was to get him. Someone else put in an app first but when the shelter saw us together they chose me as his owner. He was housebroken and furniture broken so someone at some point took care of him before they dropped him off on the highway. For the longest time I was afraid someone would come forward and try to claim him.
The first weekend I had him we brought him to the beach. There was a loose dog that charged my kids teeth bared running full speed. Henry jumped in front of the kids and fought the dog. Unfortunately we all ended up in the ocean in freaking March lol. But he kept the dog at bay until his owners finally showed up. They had the nerve to give me **** about the dog fight. If not for Henry me and my kids would have been attacked by their loose aggressive dog.
He’s also allergic to bees. The day after I brought him home he came running to me so I pet him and felt a huge lump. I freaked of course thinking I was going to lose my new dog. I layer down and he jumped on top of me and started freaking out. Got him settled and my husband was like he’s covered in hives. Benadryl to the rescue. Now he has an epi pen.
He also had vicious separation anxiety. He ate all the door knobs in my house. If come home to pools of drool everywhere. I decided to kennel him and he busted through the wire kennel. It took a couple months but he finally figured out he was home and safe. Now he’s perfect when left alone. Especially if the pup is with him.
And there are the stories of my soul dog. He’s sat with me through panic attacks, psychosis, uncontrollable depression and crying. Aside from my family he’s the best thing to happen to me. Best $250 I ever spent. Pretty cheap when you think of the unconditional love and support of a dog. Everyone should go out today and adopt a dog!

so yeh they recently sent a letter wanting all my paystubs for thr past 2 years. I ignored it and didn't mail it back

I was notified at my current job that social security called them to verify my earnings. so I assume they called all my other jobs too

got another letter saying they have all my earnings information and haven't decided yet if they will take my disability payments away or not


Ugh. That sucks. I hope they don’t cancel your services. Will you still have insurance if they stop your check? Sorry I don’t know how it works. Paying for health insurance is a back breaker. So freaking expensive for everything.

Damn.
That’s great. I like bcbs but their deductibles and copays will be higher. I wish I could get disability just for the insurance. My meds this month will be in excess of $300 because my insurance now demands 90 day supplies for maintenance drugs. Big pharma killing us in more ways than one.

yes I will have co pays which is gonna be an adjustment because with Medicaid and Medicare I had no copay

Medicare was my primary insurance and covered 80% of all costs

then Medicaid covered the remaining 20%

so all my Dr appointments cost nothing to me.. the only thing I pay is $1.20 for med refills

The kids won’t get up. I knew we went to bed too late. 2 am is definitely not conducive to an early morning with kids.
My hotel neighbors are still partying. They have been quiet but they’ve been on the deck playing music and drinking beer since we got here yesterday. Beer at 6 am? No thank you.

Hello everyone. How are things going?

I'm not sure what to do about things right now. I called customs last night and discussed things and they said I may need to speak to an investigator but that because it wasn't my fault I should be okay. I feel like law enforcement is still after me.


I don't know who is after me but I feel they are. Talking to my wife and roommate helped but now I'm stuck again with my own thoughts. Maybe I'll go for a walk.

I tried to reach my mental health support team but the phone system was down. So maybe tomorrow then.

Beautiful weather coming up at home. 80s and sunny. The kids will be hot. Going to be 89 their first day. My son starts with shop this year so he can’t wear shorts.
I feel like taking a nap lol. I’m so comfy all wrapped up. The tub here is amazing it’s a two person whirlpool. I slept in it for about 10 minutes I was so chill.
I was a bad mom and bought chocolate chip muffins for breakfast. I swear we’re all going to be 10 lbs heavier after this trip.
I found a candy store and bought 2 lbs of assorted candies (chocolate covered coffee beans, strawberries, cranberries, etc). Then I bought a lb of fudge.

Band leader asked me how I was doing today after yesterday. I told him what was going on and that I didn't get into the doctor or therapist today. Maybe he's sending someone after me. It's scary to think about.
