Got everything I needed to accomplish today, handled.
The $1,600 utility bill The city sent me, was knocked down to $297. (I just had to keep my cool. There was no way it was even possible for the bill to be that high…even with ALL the services under one account) The Food Stamps were switched to my SS# so we could use them. I am totally thankful for every person I talked to today. Ms. C at Social Services, young Ms Mandy at the City offices – bless you both for having the ability to get things done! G and I are fine as we wait for this months FSs to kick in.
Next month will be so much better.
About Morning Knits
I believe in and practice positive living. I love YARN, cooking, music, bird watching, herbs, and gardening. I am passionate about YHWH the Elohim of all the earth. I believe it's our responsibility to tend that earth. I basically do my thing in a quiet, amused way. I believe in laughter, and the power of combined prayer. I am a true homebody.
I have 6 kids, all home-born and successfully breastfed. They are all grown. I'm the oldest of 9, daughter of a missionary mother who lives in Kenya, and I have a spoiled service dog and 2 rescued cats.
Right now, there is balance after yrs of unemployment. My disability was approved due to degenerative discs, fibromyalgia, and obesity. That last is hard to say. I believe we owe it to ourselves to protect our mental health. It's precious and the one thing we can control. I would rather not do my own housework and I talk too much. I bought a house in North Carolina which I ended up leaving for my husband to sell. I'm a two-time caregiver. My husband and I are separated due to stroke complications and personality difficulties.
I am in Texas now. The one place on earth I said I'd never go unless Yah moved me there and HERE I AM! G and I are sharing a small apartment and so far, things are going well.
