Guest guest Posted January 14, 2000 Report Share Posted January 14, 2000 Well this is what happened. It's funny now, but it wasn't so funny when it happened. & I live in a small lovely 24 unit senior citizen complex. We have lived here for almost three years. And of course when you live in a building like this you meet all kinds of people, and you have to learn to live with them. Well for the most part we all get along very well, and those who want to be left alone, we leave them alone. This one couple has done nothing but complain since they have moved in. So we just let them ramble on it never effected us, in fact we had been out to dinner with them one time. Other than that, they stayed pretty much to themselves. We recently found out that they didn't like the smells (as they said stink, coming from my apartment (I cook italian, and I am a very good cook, and all the other people in the building rave about the aroma. Well come to find out, they tried to get a petition against us, but nobody would sign it. They wrote letter's of complaints to manager. I was told as long as I didn't cook body parts or my cat, this was my home & I could cook anything I wanted. He and my husband got into a little what to do in the corridor, so invited him to our apartment to see if we could straighten this whole thing out. He said he was sick of smelling the " stink " coming out of our apartment. I asked him what he wanted me to do about it? He said " go up and down the hallway with aerosol spray. I lost it than and told him in a very unlady like manner that I was sick of hearing him complain, and f he didn't like living here to get the ##### (you figure it out) out! Well he didn't like that left the apartment, gave my husband the finger, and off he went. Needless to say I was pretty upset, but when I calmed down, I went to a store and bought a skunk (PePe La Pew), hung it on my door, it hung there for 2 weeks, and it really ticked them off (I was told), so now they are going, and I shall continue to cook and cook everything and anything, that has garlic & olive oil (hope I don't burn it) hee hee!! So thats what happened, I laugh now, but the skunk was a great idea, and it worked. Rita Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 15, 2000 Report Share Posted January 15, 2000 Hey Mike, there is a story behind my quitting work. The state bought an old building in downtown ton, restored it, built a parking building 2 city blocks away, and moved my department into it. Needless to say, I couldn't walk the distance. Three of my coworkers (more like guardian angels) shuffled my vehicle around and parked it for me. They tried to make the best out of a bad situation and they did. I hated it though. Anyway, during this time, my health took a bad turn for the worse (probably due to stress) and even being dropped off at the door wasn't good enough. I was scared I couldn't make it to the bathroom if I needed to and you all know how much worse it is when your stressed out. I could hardly move my legs. Soooo, I didn't go back and it was truly meant to be. I spent 2 weeks saying " poor me " and then decided to accept it for what it was. A BLESSING. I started to feel so much better that I drove to ton and had lunch with my coworkers. After getting over the pity party, I went to the mail box and found that the Veterans Administration had granted me a 100% service-connected disability. If you are a veteran you know what the service connection means. Lots of money and lots of benefits. I can quit worrying about 's education and a lot of other stuff. Now I just have to find something to do with my time. I love to make things out of wood, like birdhouses, but I'm having trouble getting my arms to cooperate. My arms are so weak that at times I have trouble lifting them. If anyone knows how to help with my arm problem, I'm all ears. (not really, but you know what I mean) Anyway, the point is, and there is a point to all of this, that there is someone in control of all of this, someone a lot higher that us, and life would be a whole lot simpler if I would just learn to go with the flow and quit fighting the LORD at every turn. For some reason, I can turn a wonderful blessing into a pity party. I'm learning though and I'm expecting my miracle any day now. Yall have a wonderful day.

Guest guest Posted January 15, 2000 Report Share Posted January 15, 2000 You're right. I have had a miracle. I wonder if I'll ever learn to recognize them on my own. By the way, do you think lifting weights (2 or 3 lbs) might help or hurt my arms. I also need to do something about my legs. I'm losing muscle mass daily. Scary. Now that I have the time, I might start a workout program. Anything would be better than nothing. Have a good one.

Guest guest Posted January 16, 2000 Report Share Posted January 16, 2000 : It wasn't a real skunk, it was a toy (I am not the bad that I would hang a real one, but you know I wished I had thought of that, there sure are enough of them around around here). We went to a toy store & bought Pepe LaPew (not sure of the spelling). Now he is hanging over my stove (where else). Hope that explains it better.

Guest guest Posted January 16, 2000 Report Share Posted January 16, 2000 Jeanne: Congratulations on your good news regarding the VA. It sounds like an exercise bike that also moves your arms forward & back would be of benefit to you. Is there somewhere you could try one before investing in a purchase? I have one, and when I get the gumption to get on the thing, I really do feel better. Mostly, I just enjoy short frequent walks. So far, only my legs are affected. The only thing I have noticed with my arms, is that they fall asleep easily with any sort of pressure on them. Good luck, Jeanne, and God bless you again, and again, and again. Love to all.

Since we have changed over to PLS-FRIENDS, onelist has added advertising to our messages and we also have to go through Bell South telephone, I think. This may have created some problems for some of us. Let me know if you receive this and what the text looks like. Thanks, Mike Gray.

Guest guest Posted January 17, 2000 Report Share Posted January 17, 2000 Jeanne, I have no idea what the attachments are. My suggestion is do not download them unless there is something in the body of my message that gives you a definite idea of what is in the attachment. As for the banners (advertisements), that is now something I believe we have to put up with from Onelist, our sponsor.
