Nothing really...
We had a bit of drama with my son, but that has resolved itself. He had been without his psyche meds for five days and was looking for a fight. I forgot and was a bit pissy about the state of the kitchen (dirty) and made an offhand remark saying "I raised you better than this." He smart mouthed me back.
This brought my poor slew footed husband from the bedroom demanding he apologize to me and the two of them got into a shouting match. Nick looked like he was going to punch Joe (who has had Multiple Sclerosis for twenty years) but he stopped and started punching things in the laundry room. He dented the dryer, and we thought he was going to put his fist through the glass of the door. He didn't. He did however crash through the baby gate and and cut his knee all up. He then just broke down in tears.
Honestly, that was what he needed. Everyone hugged and made up before we went to bed. I apologized to Nick for starting it. I was in a bad mood because I have accumulated so many medical bills that I can't pay for.
For some people $3,000 isn't a lot. But when you're on a fixed disability income of $1350 a month, and your husband is on social security, it's rough. Nick lost his good paying job due to Covid in August before the baby was born. Joe and I are carrying all the bills and there's no money left over. Nick works for Door Dash and the little money he makes keeps the baby in diapers and formula. Nick's fiance is very damaged and should be on disability herself. Not only that she needs to be on WIC, and I believe this family of five qualifys for food stwmps. We've tapped the food banks a few times and my niece picks up boxes for us also.
The most discriminated people in the US are the poor.
So yeah. That's about all I've to report. Love you all!
