Well, my mother is having ups and downs in recovery. More down than up, I'm afraid. They Marchmen-acted her. I shall explain. When someone is mentally unstable they Baker-act people. That is what they did when she came in because she was threatening suicide. Now that she is no longer doing that but is still addicted to the medication. They Marchmen-acted her which is basically like Baker-acting but for drugs or alcohol. She has been 'sentenced' to another 60 days in therapy, judge ordered. They are sending her over to this different place on Monday. I was freaking out for a few days because the insurance was not going to cover all of the $9000 per month that it costs. They are leaving $1080 for us to pay, BEFORE she even goes in there! I was lost. How was I to come up with that kind of money in 3 days. I made my grandmother ask my uncle, my mother's brother for money because he is 'comfortable'. It was awesome, he agreed to lend the money until her settlement for Social Security comes through on May 23rd. Everything seems to be running smoothly now as far as that goes.
My grandmother has been out of town since Wednesday. It's fun because I brought my kitties over to visit my mother's cat Rainy. They don't know what to make of each other, I am glad they are with me, there is no greater comfort. I can do anything as long as I have them. They are my baaaabiees. Tee hee. {points at top of head} No issues here! Lol.
I have been looking for a place to live somewhere between Ocala and Gainesville since the police academy is in Ocala and my friends and work are in gainesville. I drove approx. 200 miles today with no luck. That was suck-ass. At $3 a gallon I can't afford to do that again. Maybe because I don't have a southern accent and was dressed nicely that they declined there was anything for rent? Maybe I'm just probing.
I have been talking regularly with Stephanie. This is interesting. I really wish she would move down here. She is not in good times at the general location where she is at right now. Nothing is working, persuasion-wise. I wish I could let it sink in that I'm only out to help her, no ulterior motive attached. I don't know what is going on in her head. We were talking every night. She hasn't talked to me in 3 days. I've attempted to contact, to no avail. I'm not sure what is going on over there, but I don't like it.
I think my grandmother is going to let me take over her cleaning business when she moves over to Daytona. I'm really happy about that. I can work 2-4 hours a day 4 days a week and get paid more then I am right now for 40 hours and work less strenuously. I'm excited about that. I hope all goes well. I'm not liking my job right now. I would like to quit. I don't even want to get into it. EVERYONE FUCKING HATES ME! What-the-fuck-ever. *No bitterness, really {wink}*

I love you all,

Alexandra Lee
