I previously mentioned about the worst client from last year.  A situation took place Thursday evening where a business called, about this particular individual, who was actually TRESPASSING and INSISTED that this business' bathroom NOW BELONGED TO HER!!!!  These poor business people had no clue what to do about her or what to think!  I advised these business people to do what anyone would do with a trespasser who refused to leave......CALL THE COPS!!!!

I wish we had safe, well-run halfway houses for the mentally ill...
so many homeless just need a clean place with some counselors around
and a Dr. to oversee Rx.

So sad to see them sitting on cold bricks downtown, defeat all over their faces.

What a failure.

In my city there has been a huge effort to build and provide nice housing and services on Skid Row. It has changed immeasurably. However the extremely mentally ill are falling through the cracks due to the many issues in the law, etc. This is heartbreaking to see, and we have to stop discounting them as human beings- but I cannot see how to fix things...We are blessed by the MS Bones in this world...

I wish there was a better system to address this need.

BTW, NDoofus sent me an email.  I haven't responded yet as I don't have the energy to deal with her.  I'm trying to focus on doing what the doctor advises until I can get an appointment.

I think they don't want to know why, just where is MY supply.

Hope your feeling better soon after much rest and care. seasons

NDoofus continues to send me e-mails with non-sequitors.  She STILL doesn't get it!

I'm still wondering how I'm going to handle Christmas given that I have not been feeling well for over two weeks.

Dear Bones,
I truly believe that you can handle Christmas by not handling it.
Just set it over where people who are eager for it can have it.

You can give yourself a gift...of doing nothing.
Letting the holiday pass by...

You can tell BF you want to do your own special New Year,
but no Christmas on that exact date. You need to rest.

Work for you?

With this bronchitis, I don't have any energy for anything.

Well, NDoofus called me today stating that she was going to "drop off Christmas presents".  Whatever.   :roll:  She heard my coughing and wheezing and wanted to know what was going on.  I told her I have bronchitis.  Her response?  "Well, I HAVE LARYNGITIS!" (which the sound, tone and quality of her voice said "NOT!")  I didn't have enough voice to argue.  All I could wheeze out was:  "Whatever."

A short time later, she buzzes my security code and says:  "Come upstairs to the door" to which I reminded her, AGAIN, I have BRONCHITIS and told her that I'm buzzing her in and come to my door!  (No way was I going upstairs where it is cold, damp and drafty for HER convenience!)  She was clearly NOT happy that I said NO to her demands.  She hands me a paper bag, with a "Merry Christmas" and I gave her back her video.  She left very quickly.  Inside the paper bag?  Unwrapped boxes of crackers, cream cheese, chutney, sparkling cider and cough drops.  I'm not sure WHAT to make of THAT!
