On maintaining our personal space/vibration.

11. Thanks.

I don't know where I'd go. I own a house in Houston that I rent out for income. After taxes & insurance it's not much. Property taxes in Houston are high b/c we don't have a state income tax.

I can't even visit my friends in the city b/c they have cats and dogs and I have allergic asthma. They think if they vacuum the place it will be fine for me. WRONG. I cry, I sneeze, wheeze, have coughing fits and break out in rashes and have to take prednisone. The inflammation drives my BP up and I don't think they understand it.

I have outdoor cats. When I pet them I run inside and wash my arms off b/c they itch and turn red and I put benadryl gel on them.

I lost a couple of friends because they borrowed money and never paid it back. The economy is bad all over but I felt depressed and horrible because they were using me. In fact, hubby was extremely depressed too, and we decided we had to say no.

We don't have an infinite supply of money. There is only so much you can do. These two women were friends of mine for 40 years, both of them. One of them has a bunch of mooching kids and grandkids who should be supporting her instead.

Hubby's older son's girlfriend is in the oilfield biz and made grandiose promises to sell her company and give us shares in it, so we'd never have to worry about money again, etc.and she is full of shit. It's her ego talking. She's an alcoholic and very insulting. We have both stopped speaking to her and the son spouts rightwing horseshit without thinking. She's using him. He has no boundaries and is very immature. He may be drinking a lot too & has
a DUI conviction.
