Tough times....now pain behind knee...trying positive thinking

[Anikaca77]

I've received a few donations that allowed us to make our rent payment which is very good, I did speak with the landlord about our situation and she will give us time if we need it. Right now we do have food in the house which is good but I've posted up some clothes on craiglist so that way gas won't be an issue or anything like that. I'm very thankful to the people who have already donated money for us and our kitties. I was able to get some kitty litter and some cat food as well so we will be set. I need to still purchase another bag of C/D Hills food for our guys and Hermes is going to the vets tonight and I don't know if he has asthma but he is coughing really bad almost like what Sophia sounds like (she has asthma) and I'm so worried that we already owe them $1,300 and I can't afford to pay for today's visit, they will see him anyway but I just hope it won't be too expensive. I hate to ask but I figured I'd start a new thread just because the other one is a little lengthy and I'm not sure if people saw my paypal address or not but if anyone would like to pitch in, it would be greatly appreciate. My paypal address is [email protected]

If anyone would like I could make payments back towards the end of the year when things hopefully will look better. Also, if you want to just say a quick pray too that would be great as well.

Here is the link that explains our situation a little better.

I updated the post in the Cat General section incase you want to know about what happened with him.

I don't know what's going to happen between my husband and I though. Things are not going well at all and I really can't afford to move out at all. Things are just complicated and I just don't know. I'm so depressed today and upset. I'm seeing my counselor at 1 p.m. today and I really hate to come back to work after that appt because I'm sure I'll be crying.

I'm trying so hard to make our marriage work. I just don't know. We have 10 cats and we would each take 5 most likely because I couldnt' afford anymore that's for than the 5 it would be so rough with just taking 5 but Claudia and Ashley were mine from the beginning so they would have to go with me, then Ozzy he's more mine and he'd have to come along, then Athena fits well in the circle too so she'd go and Sophia would go too but she loves Sebastian so much, last night (this seems to have nightly now, when I turn off the living room lights (sometimes I sleep out on the couch because the kitten can't stand to not have someone to sleep with even though there are other kitties, it's just not good enough for him, plus sometimes it helps sleeping out on the couch instead of in the bed)...anyway, so when I turn off the lights and it's completely dark in the living room, Sebastian will start to meow like he's kooing or something and Sophia will go over to him as if it's a mating call or something and rub her butt on him and what not, she's fixed and they just started doing this in Feb maybe. They love eachother so much that I'd hate to split them up but it would be better for her to go with the group. It's not final yet but I just don't know how things are going to change. He's giving me one last shot to make it work but I just don't know if I'm up for it again or not.

I hope maybe both of you can see a counsellor to work this out. It's fine that he's giving you one last shot - but I hope he is doing his part too.

No he won't go see anyone, we tried it once and found out that they (my counselor and ours) thought it was best that he go into this own counseling and I go into my own and then later do a group one.

I know he's frustrated since it's been so many years of this stuff and I don't want to fight with him either. It's just so unfair right now, and I just ended up brusting out and crying at work again.

Just breathe...I'm trying to remember that.
