The title of this post comes from an awesome chef my mom and I used to watch on Saturday afternoons, Justin Wilson. He was an elderly man of the Cajun persuasion with a funny sense of humor. If you’re so inclined, his show can be found on YouTube. He’s not for everyone, but do give at least a 1-show chance. I can’t say I followed his recipes, but I did get some good idea from him, plus I loved to watch him cook.

I have no REAL news, just that I’ve contacted the N.C. Medicaid Ombudsmen and that Carolina Amputee and Orthotics have re-filed. Again. It’s not looking like I’ll get my legs until after I leave this hellhole. But, since I have no one living with me, and I can’t get someone to stay with me 24 hours a day for an unspecified amount of time, I just don’t know what to do. My home is NOT wheelchair compatible (although I have a beautiful ramp) so that’s out. *sad shrug*

Does anyone know anything about SIM cards? The one in my phone apparently did something vile to itself because it says “”SIM status – No service/Mobile network state -Disconnected””. I don’t speak phone so I dunno.

Anybody have a magic wand??? Just askin’ for a friend…

Anyway, hi from Hell’s Front Porch!! That’s what it feels like. Y’all Northern Hemispherians sweltering too? It’s not the heat (bullshit), it’s the humidity (…also true)… Ha! How are y’all dealing with the heat?? Be sure to check on your friends and neighbors to make sure they’re ok. Check on strangers’ outside pets, too. Please don’t let them suffer. 😢

I’ll complain more about this place and the new owners, Medical Facilities of America, in a future post (and post tags…). Needless to say, things are not good, they have gotten worse, and (as I’m sure you can tell…) I despise it here.

So, nothing new there, ha!

Anything new with you guys???

I may not always reply to your comments, BUT I READ EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM. Your kind words and support during this fuck-shitty time are PRICELESS to me. When I’m feeling really low, I will gladly admit that I will read back through the comments to make things feel less hopeless.

Thank you, everyone who has taken time out if their day to not only read my tales of woe but ESPECIALLY thank-you to everyone who has left such great comments, advice, and commiseration. And to those of you who have even donated, a very special thanks you to you, too. Your kindness has really, really helped. (Wal-Mart necessities 👕👖🍏🍅🍎🧀🍞☕☕☕📝📋 and vending machine drinks are NOT free – sodas are NOT provided here in any way – and God forbid I might want to order EDIBLE food…)

PayPal Linkynd, because subtlety is not my middle name (*snicker*), here’s the mandatory PayPal Link.
