Still Becoming Apartment

Not feeling super great. For a couple of reasons. The sternum thing is starting to act up. It’s not too bad, nowhere near as bad as the bruised ribs of the past. But I’m starting to feel it more and more. Uncomfortableness in the chest, some pain sometimes when using my arm and moving around in certain ways. It’s not really bad, just making me feel kind of uncomfortable in my skin.
Worse is, I’m being kicked out of my apartment.
Eventually. Not right now. But in the next couple of years, I guess. There’s a huge renovation plan going on in my neighbourhood, it’s been going for years and it will be going for years. Some of the apartment blocks are being torn down. I thought I was safe becauses my building won’t be torn down. But it turns out the renovations they will be doing in my building will mean that my apartment will.. no longer be an apartment. I got a small apartment and those are being phased out. So. I’m going to be ‘permanently rehoused’.
It’s just kind of causing me some severe stress and anxiety. I feel like I can’t deal with that. I moved here long ago, before my eyesight went away. The only time I have ever moved, at least without being with my family. I don’t know how to deal with all this. I just don’t want to. Grr argh.
The plan has always been that I was going to move up to the neighbourhood where my brother lives. So we could live closer together and help each other out easier. But I don’t even know if I can do that, I’m on disability and in this ‘ghetto’ areas there are limits on which people can move into those areas now. To class up the hoods. So I might only be able to move to another apartment in one of the neighbourhoods managed by my current housing org. So now I have to look into that. And you know me, I can’t not worry. I worry too much about everything.
Well we’ll see. The papers I got said I’ll be notified 9 months before my lease will be terminated, at the latest. And I think I read that the renovations in my building will be in 2023. So. I might have a year or two. I don’t know. I gotta get in touch with the contact person from the housing org that’s assigned to helping me through all this. Which means I have to talk to humans and deal with real life and you know how I feel about that. It ain’t right, I don’t want to, you can’t make me, I need some pizza.
Sigh. So I just feel uncomfortable in body and mind right now. I just want to sleep until it all goes away. I dreamt about baby goats last night. See, that’s what i can handle.
Anyway sorry for blabbering on. Rest assured you’ll probably be hearing a lot more complaints about all of this as time goes on. Cheers.

In other news, I am embarking on a David Bowie journey.
I have always had a tremendous amout of respect for him, but I have never actually listened to an entire David Bowie album. Funnily enough, and I know true Bowie fans will probably be appalled, but I loved him mainly for his role in The Labyrinth. I loooove the Labyrinth. When it first came out I didn’t really have any concept of who Bowie was as a musician. But anyway yeah, I have only ever really known his big hits, and loved several of them. And for some reason, The Heart’s Filthy Lesson. I am not sure if that was a big hit or not, but for some reason that song has stuck with me since seeing the music video on Puls, a Danish youth programme from back in the day. If there was only something between us.. I still sing that line in my head on a regular basis.
But anyway yeah. I got his entire discography. So I’m just going to listen to it all. I’m going to do what I do when I get a new album from one of my favourite artists. Listen to it over and over, sink into it, get to know it and hopefully love it. It’s a little late to become a Bowie fan, but I feel like it’s something I was meant to be. So, better late than never I suppose.
What would life be without music? Awfully quiet, for a starter.

Good goat times today. Great to be with the goaties again. Although it was a bit of a rough day. The goats are fine. i’m starting to feel the sternum pain, though. It was a hot day. Upwards of 25C/77F. I know that’s not much compared to what some of my friends are going through. But for me that’s quite a lot. And that thing I said I was worried about, that it might start to hurt to breathe. Well that’s started happening. When I take deep breaths or physically exerting myself. Like walking in the sun. It’s not an unbearable pain, but it’s just an uncomfortable pain that makes it hard to breathe normally. And when I went shopping after the goating and lugged home about 7 litres of soda plus groceries, well that nearly killed me. AND I’M NOT BEING OVERLY DRAMATIC. Well, I’ve popped some painkillers, hopefully that will help. I might have to take a little break. I just feel quite off-balance mentally and physically speaking.
At least Mia is doing great. Seems to be all back to normal. And we had nice visitors at the fence that I helped get some goat time. And Nala the barn kitty dropped by, sat on the shelter roof and watched the goats for a bit before running off, probably in pursuit of rats or the like.
It’s always better with the goats than without.
Got some other stuff to discuss, but I need to drink about 7 litres of chilled Pepsi Max before I keel over and they haul me off to the looney bin, hee hee, haaa haaa.

Alright. Other things to note.
First off. I have lost access to posting on Mia’s page. Yup. When it rains it sharts. So that’s great. Coincidentally I noticed that hte page reach for the last month was just above one million. It’s pretty cool that our posts have had a one million reach in a month. But I wonder if that’s what causes the problem. The prompts to authorise page posting says taht it’s something they do on popular pages. I guess it would make sense if it happens one pages that reach more than a million people. And maybe that’s why it fixed itself the first two times it happened. Becauase I couldn’t post anymore, the page reach started going down. And then went below a million and I didn’t have to complete the authorisation anymore. That would make sense to me.
Anyway. I’m going to wait a few days and see. It sucks that I won’t be able to post on Mia’s page. But hopefully not posting will mean the reach will fall and the problem will go away again, for now. I hope. I just. Can’t. Deal with. Having to get that forking smartphone out and use it. I’m running on fumes as it is. So. No posts on Mia’s page for a few days probably.
In other news, someone outside my aprtment was playing music so loudly I couldn’t even hear my own tv in here. Luckily it has stopped. Hopefully it won’t start again. Worst thing is, one of the song they played was some macarena version. Gosh darndit, I’ll have that stuff in my head for a year.
Speaking of my apartment, I got a notice in the mailbox that the residents in my neighbourhood has voted down the plan to renovate our area. So. Does that mean I won’t be kicked out? I don’t know. I’m probably not that lucky. I think the politicians of our city are very determined to carry the plans out. I don’t think the residents actually have the power to stop it. But I don’t know exactly what it will mean now. Funnily enough, i knew the vote was going on but I thought to myself I thought “eh, my vote ain’t gonna make a difference, no reason to force myself out into the real world among humanpeoples for nothing”. The vote was decided by a difference of about 20. So yeah, I probably should have gone and voted. But hey, the no won and that’s what I wanted. I’m getting ready to write a mail one of the coming days to my contact person in the housing org, and I guess the first question on the list will be “What does this mean, is the plan dead, can I stay here?”. As I said, I expect it won’t be that easy. At best maybe a delay. But even if they end up not tearing down buildings, I’m pretty sure they’ll still want to carry out renovations. The question would then be if they still want to do away with the types of apartments that I live in.
I don’t know man I don’t know I just don’t know man. I feel like I can’t deal with all this shirt.
May take the rest of the week off to just sleep. Hibernation fixes all problems, right?
Sorry about all the complaining. But it’s kinda what I do. I know the smart thing would be to go to the doctor about my sternum too. But you know me. I don’t go until it’s fallen off. We’ll see. We’ll see.

My facebox is doing a weird thing when I reply to comments. While I’m in the middle of typing the cursor starts jumping back. It makes it literally impssible to type a comment because the letters get mixed up in random places. Weird.
Other than that, I still can’t post on Mia’s page and my chest hurts, hooray.
At least I have pizza.

Happy Canada day to my Canadayan friends. You know, I don’t say it often enough but Canada is a country in North America. Its ten provinces and three territories extend from the Atlantic to the Pacific and northward into the Arctic Ocean, covering 9.98 million square kilometres.
Oh and I love you Canadoes!!

Denmark qualifies for the semifinals in the European Championship! It was a real nailbiter. But on Wednesday we’ll be facing Ukraine or England for a place in the final. We’ve made the final 4, whatever happens now is just icing on the cake.
Mm. Cake.
