It is getting late and really I am not tired yet. Must be the caffiene I had in the pop I drank at dinner tonight. BUMMER! Emile is doing the right thing right now – catnapping – good kid. I wish I could say I was tired but IF I did, I would be fibbing big time. I think I will say good night to all my DD friends now and come back tomorrow sometime.
I can not always figure people out. Who wants to anywauy. Some people are just sad and hard to figure out just for that reason. Yes, today I am feeling sad. It is partly because I am expecting my period in a couple of days but also some things are saddening my heart. I have to really oray about a froiendship between a tenant and myself. I am really bothered on how she reacted at last week’s meeting with the management and onsite manager. Now we are having another tenant meeting tomorrow at 1 p.m. tomorrow because more things have creeped up since last week’s meeting. I am feeling a little restless right now.
Remembering what I written about yesterday, I just wanted to vent and get things off my mind and heart that felt pretty heavy all week. I am so glad that we are having monthly meetings with the outside/on-site management and the tenants because it will definitely air out the problems. With the community room closed, I am glad that tenants, those who sit in there with ears and eyes and gossipping mouths can not sit in there. The last four days of the room being closed and locked has been a pleasure to those who can not enjoy sitting in there. One of those people/tenants being me. I was getting fed up of sitting in the community room every Saturday morning waiting for my ride to go to church and listening to moans and groans and complaints about the management and everything that is not worth hearing about. I do know for a fact that I have been a piece of gossip among those gossippers and it really bothered me to find out what I was supposedly doing – bringing men into my apartment having sex and believe me I have found that VERY APPALLING and horrible. Me having sex? NO WAY! The thought of it makes me sick!!!
I am going to say good night from here tonight right now. I need some real good sleep.
After I got picked up from school, I went to the hospital to get labs drawn for the month of April. That was my errand that needed to be ran. after that, I came home and got ready to make a couple of calls…one of them to Madison, WI, and then to the blood lab at the hospital to see what my labs were if they were in and they were and were good. I am able to sleep well tonight. I have to since I do have a test tomorrow for Oral Communications. I even did laundry this afternoon while I looked at my Oral Communications notes for tomorrow’s test. It has been a fairly busy day all day long.Tomorrow morning I am going to review the notes and take the test at 9 a.m. to 11 a.m.
This week has been pretty good so far. For it being Thursday, my week is ending nicely. I thought, at first truly, that Monday was going to be dreaded when I got home from school and we had a meeting at the building that tenants were supposed to attend. There always seems to be a problem with tenants when new management on the outside take over so a meeting was needed to get a hold of some issues that always seem to be problematic and trouble…especially the gossip and tenants wanting to know who is who and what is going on. That really stinks. Now because of gossip being a problem in the building where I live, the community room has been closed to tenants until further notice unless the community room is reserved for parties and activities. I wonder, after this, if the community room will be open for potlucks but more so I imagine not because it is another gossip time and gossip needs to be taken care of. So now, tenants will have to go to other tenant apartments to chat and talk and gossip where it should be anyway. I thought, at first, but after realizing it, that it was unfair to have the community room closed to the tenants who obey and follow the rules of living there, was unfair, but it is not really not. It is a privilege to be in the community room to watch television and be with other tenants to enjoy each other and company. When I got home from being witn my friend Richard, I noticed how wonderful it felt to go into the building and not have eyes and ears in the community room. At this time I do not miss saying hello to other tenants as I go by the room to get mail, come in from the front door, and also I do not hear voices go down from normal talk to whispers because I could be talked about. One of the other things that was discussed at the meeting was the fact of tenants, those who did not attend, know who they are and the managerment and on-site manager knows exactly what is going on and why. I do have to admit that I am not happy with one of the tenants right now. I do not want anything to do with this person because I am still not happy. I could not believe, while at the meeting, that this tenant who is supposedly a friend of mine, spoke against another tenant who is also a friend of mine. Sexual harrassment…MY FOOT. This tenant was speaking against another tenant because she was sexually harrasssed and the truth is there was no sexual harrassment even there. Just the thought is apalling! GIVE ME A BREAK! and not a kit kat bar or a broken limb… With that knowledge, now I just do not know how I am going to handle the situation when I talk to this tenant so I am keeping my distance and not calling her. If she asks me if she did something wrong in another conversation, I am going to literally scream as it drives me crazy to hear that all the time after not talking to her for a few days or so. At this time, this tenant, who is supposedly a friend of mine, has lost a friend. So I will not be talking about her in future entries for the time being. Anyway, if she asks me, I will tell her the truth that yes, I am not happy with her and that I will have to explain why which is regarding the meeting and what she said at the meeting. My ride is going to be here in a few minutes so I have to go. I have more to say but will not be able to at the moment. Later…
I really do not have a title at the moment for reasons I do not know what to title my entry as since I have a lot to say right now. I have thirty-five minutes before my ride picks me up to take me to my desired errand and so I am going to say what I can now and if I have to finish it at another time, I will do that. Anyway, here it goes…
I do not have the time to write tonight as I hoped I would have. I have been studying for a test for Oral Communications and that been taking a lot of my evening time away from being on line chatting with my friends or doing any surfing or reading. All I have been doing since Tuesday is get on line to check e-mail, write a short e-mail to the important e-mails and so on, and studying for my test. After Friday morning, things will calm down some and being on line to write will be found…I hope!
Today was an interesting day. Did a lot of studying regarding Oral Communications, Had an appointment here at home at 11 a.m. to 12 noon, and then again another appointment (different one) at 5:15 p.m.. When my counselor arrived, the buzzer sounded to let me know that someone was here for me and I looked at the time and realized that time went by fairly quickly while studying. I studied from 8 a.m. to 11 a.m. and again from 1 p.m. to 5:15 p.m., took a bath and soaked until 7:50 p.m., then called my LLM (Nellie Mom) to see if she needed anything, and went back to the studies until now.. Now I am thinking about going to bed and getting a good night’s rest and return to my studies in the morning at 8 a.m. to 9 a.m. and 11 a.m. to whenever my ride get me. I have 2 1/2 chapters to review before Friday and I have a good start and jump. Good night everyone!
The meeting at 3 p.m. was for all the tenants and NOT all the tenants showed up. How rude! and it was a mandatory meeting. With the new management from the outside, from this day forward, we are gouing to have a monthly meeting to get to the bottom of issues that need to be addressed. What a good management this place is! No one messes with Mr. S. I tell ya! YEAH!
