snook oldest kitty
Praises for good news, the vet called and Snook needs to stay on antibiotics for two more weeks but now ruled out weight loss is not thyroid, or kidney disease or sugar... so not sure what to think. there is infection but not sure from where or what... but he is eating, is his usual attitude self, that has not changed... but so thin and he is not sm frame kitty. The others sniffed when we got home from vets and went running.... I think they figured it is year check exam time, let's hide from mama
things are al quiet here on mt side. neighbor drinking again so some calls over christmas wkend upset me i hung up but reminder of what all happened. some times sorry did not press charges against the two of them but at time, did
what i thought best to do. then there is other neighbor who cut down mail boxes called dept for mail fraud, mail mandelism, and they said file police report but admitted all police can do is tell him, i filed but will need lawyer to recover cost for new post and box. Now for first time i 10 yrs i cannot get to mail box where he moved all 7 and I at 70 yrs old need to get out of car on slope with snow ice to get mail. Not happy but again, this is strange area. How do u know when u buy a house what or how neighbors will be. well i was in for shock....
Shame senior ladies or senior couples for that matter, have to be taken granted of. or head games. even the best businesses do it . they no man around or family here, so take short cuts or fudge billing... just run around. Glad i can still make ph calls and try to dispute this kind of thing.
over all health is still good i am so blessed so blessed have to say again.... how fortunate i am. thanks and praises to God every day for getting me this far. they say every thing happens for a reason. That buying this house and moving here for retirement was all in His plan.. still waiting... all in His time as they say.
I think pressing charges would have done more good in this case than forgiveness trying to move forward staying neighbors. now forgive yes, but.... they had no consequences, so drunk says does not remember how horrible the night was...well the assault and fear remains...sadly and will. every time no matter where i would move to a noise at night will wake me up and wonder maybe not them again but someone trying to get in...and could. doors double locked 24-7. and guard never down knowing still drinking. i know very immature insecure are their issues not mine but they made me their victim for night of not sure what to call it . inside home middle of night and assault. new to area.. guess they thought invite me to party???? 15 yrs older then they are and to do this to someone new in neighborhood still not over it... and been few yrs... maybe never will. these days u press charges and folks get even...or someone does it for them. the one spouse enables is as bad as other doing this stuff and drinking.. in denial... why so many cannot deal with life need to take drugs or drink to take
''''edge'''' off of life any more. so sad. doctors counselors all warned me there would be post stress disorder from all of this..well in time will pass right... i sincerely for gave and turned other cheek more than once since.
they could have been shot, killed inside, have charges against them on record, or hurt at least from shot,
trial hearings and all of their sick lifestyle come out at hearing... then what.... i was scared. i was new here.
friends said pack sell move. but i just got here... dream home for retirement in mts. maye they were right..
I pray every day from all of this... for a good church family, and reason & purpose of being /staying here.

sorry you had problems
glad kitty good now
I’m so glad to hear that your kitty is okay. If he’s eating again that always a good sign.
I’m not clear on what happened with your neighbors. Obviously they were drinking and there was trouble. I’m so sorry that you had to deal with that. I’m not sure if you have written about it in an earlier journal. I will look. It’s not good that your mail is not closer to you. Is it possible to have a mailbox put just outside your door? Where I live my mailbox is on the outside of my apartment beside my door. You be careful out in the snow. Maybe think about getting a walking stick. Take care hugs Kelley
our mail boxes are 1/4 mile from houses down to hard road. this is private drive and town ship nor post office will come up our road... in our deeds this is mutual maintanence but no one will work together. he had NO right to cut down mail box... he went to the four houses with men head of house holds but not to me or two other women who live alone. and he did not do us favor either. two of us now cannot get into our boxes.. they are also 12-15 yrs younger than I am. It was horrible experience what I went thru with those neighbors. She never has had me fooled that she ever quit like they said. it has gone months in between seeing or talking even waving but I have tried to be at least civil in case of emergencies etc.... but has not been easy. I tried to get post office to give permission to move our boxes up hill at each house, but I have to agree with post office. Until all here, (8) houses agree to plow cinder our road, which they will not, the mail delivery person would not be able to get up our road to each of us, meaning mail would not get delivered to us for some days. I have tried to get each to pay into a yearly acct so we could pay someone to plow and cinder over winter. did not work> argue the percentage all should pay etc, the ones with big pick up trucks refused to give any thing. even though all but two ( first two houses ) have to come up most of the lane, even the first two houses have to use the worse part of our lane. No head start from hard road. incline starts right at hard road, we all have to use this part up around a bend. then gradual climb up the 1/4 mile to last house..mine. Their excuse of what happened drunk do not remember. and thing is the man does not know all of it... and maybe he needs to know what all happened. but not sure would make difference.. he enables her drinking by being in denial, and excuses rather than face truth of problems of both. this is not out going welcoming area to begin with. wish i had known but how do you know neighbors until u are already moved. Longer I am here the more I stay to myself... Even folks who live here all their life admit not most out going or friendly to new people. so what does that say... nearing 70 and moving is big deal.. right time right area to down size. and with 5 kitties very limited where i can go. all places 2 pet limit if pets even allowed..some they are not any more. they are my life like my kids raised since babies bottle fed..no way giving them up. 4 are soon 13..one will be 10.
Hope you are doing o.k. Not sure i wrote about all that happened here Kelly - mostly in private journals and counseling. NO one understands unless they were home and someone broke in middle of night. so close to pressing charges but scared to remain here if i did. I have no family to back me,,, and friends all have own families and stuff going on in own lives.. I did the Christian thing thinking planting seed of forgiveness, remain civil...after talking to her, and move forward, I did right thing. Not in this case. even the cop i talked to said when someone like this does what they did the booze just covers up who the person really is... not dealing with their own issues. ( immature and insecure for two) by him covering up everything he just enables her.. so to me he is as much guilty as she is.. anyway
thanks for listening. might re journal over what happened but some cannot print. it was an assault. they definitely over powered me in size, age and strength.. to this day knots in stomach.. have blessed evening.
Dear oldkittycat,
What a nightmare. I am sorry about your mailbox. I don't pray too often but I will be praying for you and your kitties. I will also put you in my God box even though I am kind of disappointed and angry at my God. I want to fire him.
Hugs, Koyu
