Tracy left her dog home alone and then left a message on fb messenger as though I would take care of him. While she is out. I am not impressed I just woke and she does this every time to everyone. I called her out on her stuff last night she said someone who suppose to give her money is procrastinating when she does exactly the same thing to me. I flipped I said instead of waiting on this imaginary dollar amount go and obtain it. And it’s funny how she’s angry over something she does to everyone else this is the best medicine. I said instead of being mad and angry do something productive with it. She told me off I started laughing I said “you’ve always been all bark and no bite. You can always say it forcefully like you mean it but I have watched you and come to the conclusion that your just as scared of your own shadow as Peter Pan was.”

I was going to go to Walmart today but I didn’t get up early enough. Like I woke up at 2:30am and then went back to sleep at 4:30am. It’s now 11:38am I am coughing and sneezing. Not really in the mindset to share my germs with others. Also it’s suppose to be hot outside today so I am staying where it’s cool. The lights are out in the hallway I don’t know why it looks really dark. But I have power in my suite.
I’m waiting on 2 packages from amazon.

The days blur together i thought today was Wednesday but it’s Tuesday. Then tomorrow will be Wednesday and I will be all mixed up.

I liked it before I was sandwiched between 2 dogs. There both yappers as there small dogs. Before it was much quieter and I could sleep all hours of day without having to listen to dog bark. Now there is another dog who lives on 3rd who is real barker I suppose no one on that floor can sleep at all. Because it also howls as well. The separation anxiety is big with all these dogs and these apartments are not in anyway shape or form big enough for animals. They don’t get enough exercise and the one who moved in next to me recently never walks on the ground ever. Is always in a stroller or in her arms or in travel bag for dogs. She said to me that she is scared her dog would pick up something it’s not allowed to have but I told her your going to kill the knees of your dog by giving it apathy. She told on me to staff saying I was trying to kill her dog I looked at the person next to me and they told staff what I had said. At the time they tried to tell me to make friends with her I said no as she over tells her story to everyone making it sound as though I should feel sorry for her.

I know I cannot handle a pet I tried once before in my apartment but it’s really to small for a pet in here. People keep telling me to get a dog I don’t want a dog. I can barely take care of myself let alone get something that’s going to cost more then me in a month. It’s like having children I am not going to bring up a child in my environment so why would I get a pet ?

I dealt with the laundry in the washer this morning. Hung up most to dry and a few items in the dryer. I didn't use my washer or dryer 2 summers ago at all (went to Laundromat- washer was broken) and my hydro bill is $80 cheaper for July this year and I had the AC on the entire month. I try and do laundry on off peak times but sometimes I just don't care.
