In response to "Sometimes Life is just hard"

Wow. What a tangled mess that is. I'm sorry that so much is happening at one time. I've noticed lately that in my case, things seem to happen in threes. I've had many years without those issues, then BOOM. The best you can do is hang in there and ride it out. Pray on it. One day things will be better. At least, that's what works for me.

I've been approached by telephone with those loan offers or even tgat i won a gift, but need to pay for shipping, which means they need to have information to charge it.

I don't trust them, not even some that appear to be legit. Maybe they have a legit looking company icon, yet are a fraud. Anything where I have to share my personal information, I flat out tell them I will not share.

The bank won't give you a loan if there's a bad record of being in debt. Probably the landlord reported it to the credit bureau.

Good luck straightening this all out.

I tell them to stop contacting me, and also Block thier phone number, but they must have a billion phone numbers. They keep doing what they do, yet change thier approach.

Anytime things seem too good to be true. It is too good to be true.

One time PayPal sent what looked like a legit letter, albeit an ensiled one. Paypal does not ask for personal information, which they already have. Rather than have an account. I closed it because back then I didn't understand that it was scammers.

I deal with depression. Sometimes I win! That said, it's a real struggle... especially on dark dreary days.

Keep reminding yourself, God is right there with you. So, whatever the situation, you are facing right now, I will pray that God will give you the strength and courage to keep on going.

I'm also fighting within myself and I have some anger and bitterness towards someone right now and it hasn't been easy to let go but I realize I have to let. go and Let Jesus Christ take over for me.

Please take care of yourself.

I'm glad you were able to put your care before caring for your elderly neighbor. It's good that you were able to stand your ground after giving notice.

Good luck with the house situation. I will pray for you for both the house and your mental and physical well-being.

In response to "Welcome to my crazy life update"

Glad to hear that things are being sorted out. A car and a dog. Part of me wishes I had both.

Living with someone has been a blessing for me. I go back to my lonely room in Montana next month and may have to ask pointed questions about rent. I cannot afford to pay double what I'm paying. Rich folks are buying second and third houses, turning them into AirBnBs or leaving them empty most of the year. Prices have skyrocketed and rental companies are price-gouging.

I may be forced to relocate to Thailand or elsewhere where at least I can have a nice life without the financial stress. I want to move to Kansas or Iowa but that's more expensive than staying put in Udon Thani.

Choices and decisions. We each face them. Sometimes they have happy endings. Enjoy this moment and hopefully your future decisions work out for the best.

Your very a kind person to have helped her. That being said you also know that she needs more than your able to provide and your looking out for her needs. At least you have given her the opportunity to make a decision about her life. You gave her dignity. I'm praying 🙏🌹 for both of you now, for the Lord to give you strength and compassion to go through this transition.
Bless you both.

In response to "update on my crazy life"

Mom never wanted be in a nursing home, but ultimately we had to put her there because I was caring for a small daughter and my brother had three teenagers. Sometimes there’s not an easy way to do the right thing, but you are doing the right thing. Rest in the Lord. (Psalm 91:1-4,KJV)
