      So sorry to hear what you are going through Jedwards0819. I hope they approve you for dissability and food stamps as soon as possible and sorry you have to sell your Windstone. That sounds a bit like what my mom and I have gone through in the past wondering how we were going to pay the rent and bills. We also had to get church help at one point. My mom was on disability and then they switched her to a pension when she turned 65 and now she gets maybe two thirds the money she used to get which sucks. She has been waiting for additional benefits to kick in for over a year and the government kind of gave her the run around about what she needed to apply for those. For the two years I have been unable to work I was lucky enough to get enough to pay my rent and then have to make do with buying and selling things online to pay bills and anything else. We have also been on a Calgary housing waitlist for over a year hoping for a rent subsidy but we are not considered a high priority. I have had friends who have been looking for work for months who can’t find any and almost 20,000 people here got laid off last year when oil prices dropped so I am not enthusiastic about trying to find work myself. Anyway I hope things get better and your luck turns around!

      Looking for rainbow or pink & teal grab bags!

        Kim, I had something similar happen to me over this grab bag, too. 🙁 As it is, my trade partner received my piece on the 9th…..and still hasn’t given me a tracking number for their half, and has not answered any messages for the last week. 🙁

        Thank you Kim. I’m sorry for your troubles. I’m no stranger to them.

          Celine Dion’s husband also passed away yesterday. It’s sad anytime someone you know of passes away.

          so there is this forum post that says “beware of this person”, but when i click on it i get the “you are not authorized to view this post” message. whine whine whine! i feel cranky i cant see it because i dont wanna be duped by someone. anyways. whine whine whine and all that. i’m a skilled whiner. lol

          on the bright side, i have a quilt commission, which means i will get a bit of money when i finish it. i hope to finish it in a couple of weeks. yay me!

            That post has been taken down and an explanation posted in a different thread. You are not missing anything – there is nothing to “beware” of. Someone’s account was hacked and they are working to straighten everything out.

                I trusted my gut and found the proof today. Now to rip my life apart. Kinda wish I had more of a backup plan.

                    Oh, Tinks that’s terrible! I’m so sorry. 🙁
                    Perhaps go on the vacation but take a trusted best friend with you instead of him. Unless you can cancel and get some or all of your money back, which may be possible if you opted for travel insurance.

                          That is probably the best idea ever. Take a gal pal along with you if you can! Though I’d do my best to resolve as much as possible with the dirty rat before you go (change those door locks!)–getting away for some fresh air would do you well, but not if you came back to have a bunch of your stuff stolen. 🙁
