Dialysis Update
This week, dialysis has been smooth sailing UNTIL MY BOOOD PRESSURE DROPS below 100/50 or lower. On Monday I will be seeing Dr. Anjum, so I will be talking about changing my blood pressure med time to after dialysis. I may have to tweak the times a bit because my BP meds are working so well so good. That’s a big plus in my book of life these days, I think and guess. Today is the last dialysis treatment of the week. Yahoo! Maybe tomorrow will be a bed day. I will wait and see. Maybe. , ,
A Busy Day
After dialysis, getting out early today, Jackie and I went to the bank to take care of something so she can take our money from my account because yesterday there was a little problem with getting $33 worth of quarters for the laundry, and $25 cash for a neighbor who baked sugar cookies for my Tupperware party last night. Yum and I had two of them last night. Jackie went to River Flats apartments to talk to one of the managers there about an apartment because my family wants me out of Garden Court apartments because the place is falling apart to things not being fixed or taken care of, and they are not doing anything about it. Jackie went to someone about Garden Court not doing what they are doing, a former neighbor who lived in #210 had gotten a lawyer and sued Garden Court and won the case. Garden Court needs to have handicap accessible doors for the back door AND THE FRONT DOOR, and the front doors DO NOT have handicapped assessable doors. They can’t not say if the doors break the tenant who breaks them will be paying for it. The former tenant said she was told to pay for the pipes that froze and broke in her apartment. They can’t do that either. They also fix broken machinery instead of getting new machinery. My once happy home has become a my worst nightmare. I want out of here. This place isn’t my happy home, and friends and neighbors are moving out, too.
Garden Court
Garden Court is no longer my happy home even though I am not unhappy enough that I am glad to leave and come back. Burbank Plaza was the only building I dreaded going back to and glad I was leaving for the day to dialysis until Dawn Kastenmeier Fry and her lovely husband Scott Fry want me to die from Covid and are out of my life since 2020. Yes, I have lived here at Garden Court for three years and I have seen people/tenants come and go from this place believe it or not because the office and maintenance don’t fix things. I think the property management sucks here as they are letting this place rot with mold and are not doing anything about it these days. Jackie went to someone about this place and the building is in violation of a lot of things. The office says no one can use the stairs unless in emergency. Violation 1, allow our door to close before opening the next door or you will be paying for broken door. Violation 2, the doors need to be replaced because they are outdated. Violation 3, the front entrance does not have for handicap people. Violation 4, there is mold in apartments that is not being taken care of. Violation 5, and they have to accommodate the tenants when it comes to putting a walk in shower in my bathroom and they refuse. It’s absolutely ridiculous at Garden Court these days. Tenants are moving in and out every other month or two. Sad? Yes, indeed! Tenants let the homeless into the building and that’s a violation and grounds for eviction, but management does not evict unruly tenants. Management is supposed to do background checks and they do not, and we have a registered sex offender in the building, and the office did not tell us there was a registered sex offender in the building and they are supposed to not let those kind of violators in the building. If they did background checks, this tenant would not be in the building. A disabled, autistic man was raped for four days while locked in his apartment and the police and office did nothing to help when the victim was inconsistent with his story about being raped by the sex offender. Awful and scary, people like that need to be jailed, right? Right, but the court system is broken, or we have corrupt judges and politicians who don’t care, and in this case, management seems to be uncaring at Garden Courts Apartment Building. I do have friends who are living in Garden Court who are looking for a new place to live. I think we need new property management and structure back in the building by finding people who care about tenants and correct the violations that are, according to. Department of Agriculture can help with complaints about apartment violations. Jackie went to the city hall to take care of the complaints she had about Garden Courts. Brave woman, I can relate to her at times. I should get a lawyer to sue Garden Court? I have no reason to be suing Garden Court, but I have several reasons to get out of Dodge so to speak, though. Garden Court is really not home anymore. I have to be patient with my two applications— one at River Flats as of this late afternoon and Riverview Heights. My family and caregivers, and friends want me to be HAPPY again,
The Kitty Cats Update
Well, rambunctious is Millie at age 6 months she is, is my Millie Rose kitty cat. Magic, who is 3 years of age really do get along together, and Millie, being young and spry, yeah do get along with each other. Millie deemed my emotional support animal along with Magic. Magic, before Millie, was the only cat in the household, and now he has a sister, a playmate while I’m gone for 4 hours every other day or at appointments during the week or visiting friends. It has been a year since I visited friends at Garden Court. The kitty kiddos are doing great! No arguing there, yet Magic plays too roughly with Millie at times, but she is one cat who can fight and deal with her own self wonderfully, though. She’s a good kitty. Millie loves people food and she’s always getting into my meals when I am eating, lol. I love my babies. A year ago we talked about getting Magic a sister kitty as his playmate, but we waited until the day we or Jackie and Deb brought Millie home from the shelter December 9, 2023. Yes, last month I now have two kitties in the household. I love Millie and Magic equally.
