How My Very Busy Day Went
Well, I had a very busy day yesterday! I had my out-of-town BPD Group, my credit counselling appointment and Dinner Night at the local Peer Support centre all in the same day. My Group went pretty well. My counsellor was supposed to accompany me to my credit counselling appointment but she was off sick. I…

Our Cheque Is In!
It’s 4:43 in the morning and I couldn’t go back to sleep so I decided to check online and see if our money was deposited into our account. It was! I’m so glad! My nerves were bothering me so bad about it. Now I just have to call the credit counselling people. My nerves are…

Cheques In Tomorrow?
My daughter and her boyfriend popped into the Peer Support Centre for a few minutes today. Her boyfriend said that the ODSP cheques should be in tomorrow. I hope so!

No Cheque This Christmas!
We were supposed to have our cheque for January direct-deposited into our account today. We have not received it. I was supposed to go Christmas shopping today. My nerves are so shot! Why did we not get our cheque? Did they take it because I haven’t paid off our credit card yet? Can they do…

“We’re Not Gonna Take It Anymore!”
We’ve had a bit more daughter drama here lately. Her and her boyfriend called and asked us for money again the other day. We told them we didn’t have any. Her boyfriend got on the phone and said some extremely rude and nasty things to me. He said even worse things in the background when…

New Boots Needed and Credit Card Hassles
My daughter came over today. She said she needed money for new boots. The boots she has hurt her feet. They’re all scraped up around her ankles and heels. We told her we didn’t have any money. She started raising her voice at us. We told her to check out the thrift shops downtown. She…

A Quick Visit with my Daughter
Our daughter came over for a quick visit last night. She said that her and her boyfriend had had a little fight. She grabbed some soup and had a talk with me for a few minutes before Grandma gave her a ride home. She did ask for a few bucks. I told her that we…

Calls from my Daughter
Our daughter’s been calling all afternoon and evening. First, she wanted to come over and do laundry. We hardly have any laundry detergent, and it costs us for the water and hydro. Then she asked us for money for groceries. We haven’t got any money for groceries. We barely have enough money for ourselves, let…
