I have several other minor repairs that need to be done, too, and I just can't afford to keep up with them all right now. In my younger days, I could have done most of them myself, and what really gets to me is now I'll have to pay someone an arm and a leg to do them.
It's really depressing and kind of embarrassing that I can't take care of all this myself, right away. But at least over the next few months I should be able to get some things fixed, at least the most important things.

Blessed and lucky. As I look back at this previous post from just a few months ago, I can see that I was really at my wits' end. But since then, things have really turned around. People have come through for me, and new people have come into my life. Some money showed up when I needed it, and some discounts. Nothing cost "an arm and a leg", although it did cost - but it was affordable.
All my home repairs have been fixed except one, and that one is on the calendar, and the money is in the bank. I even got a few "extras" along the way, like my lovely Art Nouveau shower curtain and some other improvements for the bathroom.
Now I have some new concerns - like my tooth which needs to be extracted. But I am sure it will all work out. It always does, one way or another. Blessed and lucky, indeed.
