Another Fight with Roommate

Roommate is whining about doctor fees when he lost his Medicaid and has no insurance. Has some spot on his jaw that hurts and goes to Urgent Care cause he thinks it's cancer to have it checked. Returned without seeing the doctor because they want $115 just to be seen. Yeah, that is how visiting doctors work. They charge for office visits to take your temperature and blood pressure. He thinks that is unfair. Maybe, but doctors can charge whatever they want so to be treated by them you pay their prices or don't be seen by them. He complains I am arguing with him when he needs help and complains my deescalation skills suck. What does expect me to say? That's life whether he likes it or not.

Call for Interview

Well, I finally got another call to set up an interview. The problem is that the job is selling insurance. I'm done with unemployment and am not interested in a part-time insurance agent job that pays commission only. No, thank you.

Dog Walk Disaster

Had a loud fight with roommate. I took the dogs out for a walk a couple of hours ago. Roommate wants to take the dogs out for a walk, too. OK, the girlfriend returns with Anna cause they took off the leashes across the street, but Rufus takes off down the street while Anna returns to the house. Roommate runs down the street to get Rufus. Almost gets hit by 2 cars and when roommate picks up Rufus, he bites him. They return, and roommate is furious that he had to chase Rufus down and stop him from getting hit. He grabs Rufus to take him to the basement room. He declares he will take him for another walk to bond with him. I tell him no. He is too upset, and Rufus doesn't need another bonding walk to learn to obey roommate. I knocked on the door and demanded that Rufus leave his room. He was in a cardboard box, shaking and fur wet with pee. Roommate refuses, screaming at me how I don't train my dogs. Funny, dogs obey me, and I release the leashes after we are back in the house. I pull the "He's my dog, and I want him to leave your room. You are angry and scaring him." He flips over a box, and I call Rufus to me. Then he storms upstairs, screaming my de-escalation skills suck. He is training Rufus cause I am so terrible at it. Lists all the treats and lettign them out to pee when I was workign he has done for me. Then roommate collapsed on the floor, coughing, and is now in the bathroom with his girlfriend. I think they are taking a shower. No more walking Rufus. I am putting my foot down.

PS. He came out of the bathroom calmed down and apologized for screaming at me. I explained that's why I wanted my dog out of his room. We agreed no more walks with Rufus.

Happy Star Wars Day

Rosie's paw is really swollen today. She is walking on it so wonder if stuck by bee or what.

Update: Going to vet, her leg is swollen now. I found a spider by the cat tower so maybe spider bite.

Update after waiting for nearly an hour in the exam room with my cat in the back room: Doing Xrays. They think it's a fracture not a spider bite or bee sting.

Update after sitting at home for 2 hours: Vet called. They didn't find fracture, but found a ligament tear so splint, pain meds, and no exercise. Have to make an appointment in 2 weeks to reexamine her and change her splint dressing.

Happy Gotcha Day Rufus

Happy Gotcha Day and Happy Birthday Rufus. Last fall was Birthday and his actual Gotcha Day was yesterday.

Another Repair Done

Well, we had another repair done. We got brake fluid flushed and replaced. The warning light said it was low. Then replaced the brake pads, rotors, and calipers replaced. I asked roommate if he had trouble stopping and wouldn't answer me. Asked girlfriend and yes, he has trouble stopping the car. Told him brakes need fixed if he has stopping. So fixed the brakes. All is left is the oil change and filter changes That can wait. With his car problems they don't have him on the schedule until next week. He is looking for a 2nd job. He yelled at his girlfriend to look for a job and stop following him around. Guessing she is not getting disability. They do the food delivery app too, but don't make much plus use up gas now over $3 a gallon. Working on ny Pilates and hope to start teaching by the end of June. Looking forward to the location new my home opening. I gather this company is new looking at the new equipment at the 2 locations I saw. They have 4 locations in the suburbs. They have classes of 12 people and a room for private lessons. It's a nice place. Working 25 hours gets benefits so most teachers are 20 hours with 2nd jobs. Will see what happens. Apprentice teachers get less than certified teachers getting $30 per hour. Anyway, this long enough.

Next while do food delivery, the engine goes out from the antifreeze leaking. Once the car cooled, he managed to drive it home. Have to wait until Monday to tow it again. I thought the mechanic fixed the antifreeze leak and odd that the day after fixing the brakes that the antifreeze is leaking all over the engine. And I get to pay for it all cause bozo hasn't received his first paycheck yet and only has his tips.
