Discouraged, tired

[CindyL]

I just took a look at myself. Very pale from exhaustion and anxiety, except for the bites all over face, neck and ears, vicks under nose, circles under eyes, hair sticking out in all directions under hat from tea tree oil, dryer sheet hanging out under hat, clothes way too big from weight loss and pants tucked in socks. If I just saw me I would think “crazy lady” too.! One of my biggest problems, besides financial, is the fact that I live in a condo where we have a washer/dryer for all 8 condos in each building. It is to use free but there is a schedule, I can only use them on Monday morning and Thursdays. I don’t have the $$ to go to the laundromat. Hard to believe I took the washer/dryer in my prior apt for granted.

I am using towels to cover the couch and recliner after vacuuming and spraying them….haven’t slept in bed in weeks. Not to mention I moved here on 5/1/18 to a condo full of fleas. I have no pets and the carpeting was over 20 yrs old. I paid Orkin, but the only way to totally get rid of them was to pull the carpeting out. These are pretty old, mine was built in 1972, and the floors are what’s called soft-crete so it had to be carpet or a floating floor laminate. I could only afford to carpet the living room, 2 bedrooms(the bathroom is tiled) and left the kitchen as the wood laminate for just the kitchen would cost more than all of the carpet (1700.00). So here I am again stuck with carpet, this time new that’s full of bugs and zero money to do anything about it. I can not vacuum every square inch here due to MS and living alone, with no one to help me. Then on 1/7/2020 the hot water hose behind the dishwasher blew and flooded the kitchen. Now I have to pay my homeowner’s deductible to the water extraction company and a plumber if I want a working dishwasher….that is the least of my worries! When the company came back for the fans is when I first started getting bitten. They had put holes in the wall for the fans to reach the crawlspace with a hose. These mites are in my clothes, purse, car, furniture, coats, shoes etc. AND on top of the carpeting.

Well I guess when you’re at the bottom the only way to go is up. Please keep me in your prayers. Thank You and God bless,
