I was very happy to get a fresh set of eyes and ears giving opinion on Maria. 
Maria was complaining about Kim.  Kim this, Kim that. Kim was complaining the entire time, maria intoned, that Taylor was over there, I'm surprised Taylor didn't say anything to you about it.  Taylor - is a different kind of person. She doesn't look at things the way a lot of other people do and she isn't concerned at all what people think about her and she freely gives her opinion when asked and if it's something that either interests her or relates to her.  We're all pretty blunt around here, lmao, I can't imagine what those kids are going to grow up like being around such input. 

Oh, anyway, this is the other day when Taylor and james went over there to help them move.  Kim is a drunk. Granted.  But she isn't an angry drunk. She might complain about things a bit - her current situation with the inheritance is definitely something on her mind.  Most of the time she just agrees with everyone and asks people to repeat themselves.  I'm not, btw, dissing her by saying she's a drunk. She IS a drunk.  She drinks a lot, she is drunk a lot and Maria complains about that as well.  Ok, but....it's not an angry drunk kind of drunk. That does make a difference, at least. 

So Taylor came home for lunch because the next door neighbor's dog needs to be let out. They are all out on their own adventures and needed someone to let the dog out for "potty" purposes.  She had a completely different story about the move than Maria - and frankly I'll trust Taylor over Maria any day when it comes to moods, complaining and whining.  Basically, Taylor said Kim didn't complain hardly at all. She was drinking yes, and Maria came up and said "WANT ANOTHER BEEEEEEER, KIM?" Mocking her.  Maria doesn't live well with other people.  She's one of those people that needs to have their own place by themselves.

But she isn't in that position and Kim is giving her free rent to stay there. Bit***** about having to clean all the time?  Where else are you going to find where you don't have to pay any rent?  Money freed up, her quality of life could improve - if she so desired.  If I were poor and broke - and I have been in my lifetime - I would happily take whatever situation like that came my way and put up with whatever bul***** I had to. It's a large house, they could just as easily avoid each other. 

So at this point, I don't wonder if Maria is actually worse than Kim and actually the one making things quite difficult. She has 2 dogs and a bird.  She's really being given a gift.  It's a beautiful property back in the woods, out of town, away from people.  It's a beautiful house.  I dunno. I can see having issues living with other people - I've been doing it most of my adult life - but nothing, at least in this case, that can't be worked out.  She asked me if I would help her get into a new place.  I did not reply to that question yet.  I don't think she needs a bailout, I think she needs an attitude adjustment.

Whatever.  I got up today and got out of the house.  The bank, the internet/cable company, Kroger's, the hair dresser,  a bite to eat at Applebee's and whatever else I'm not thinking of right now.  Oh yes, the pawn shop to get some 9mm ammo.  Stuff is hard to find right now and the price tag agrees with that assessment.

Oh, and I'm very glad Addler is at home now.  He will be on a strict diet for a while until he loses the fat and is lean again.  I take that stuff seriously - they did not over there.  I can get him slimmed down in a few months on just dog food only diet, no treats.  We've been down this road several times now since it went from Rene to Maria.  Rene - kept those dogs nice and lean.  Maria - I have no idea, really, what.  Just must be getting fed extra junk, possibly other tenants, I dunno.  Whatever the case, the bigger the dog, the more the need to keep them fit and trim.  They live longer, their hearts don't give out at early ages.  Addler is a great dog, I'd like to see him around for a while. Not dying some early death because people are dumping garbage down his throat. 

Aspyn - jury will be out for a while.  I will give her treats because she is way too thin. Whether she had worms or not we'll find out as time goes forward and if she starts to fill back out or continues to lose weight. Frankly, I may just get the pancreas powder anyway.  I can get it cheap enough and it isn't going to hurt her to have it even if she doesn't need it, that according to the vet.  Dump it on her food, that's it.

I'm very hopeful the estimate of the truck taking a day and a half to fix is accurate. 2 days off is very much appreciated right now.  Tomorrow morning, I'm getting up earlier than normal for when I'm home and go get the boat.  Well, try to get the boat.  The thing best done did run before I even exit the property with it. 

And that's it for now.
