Oh Maria, sending lots of hugs and love.
Spike's Bitches 47: Someone Dangerous Could Get In
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
Maria,
maybe you can get someone who can do some accounting work for you to get the records together?
You need an Erin/msbelle hybrid who can come in there and make things right.
I just don't want to deal, and I don't have that option.
I still can't go down into the basement. I'm sleeping on the couch with the light and the tv on. He has so much crap everywhere I'm paralyzed by the thought of having to go through it.
I just want someone to make this nightmare go away. I can't do this.
{{Maria}} All my love and sympathy. Please, ask for help, even if you don't want to or feel you can't, and take any that is offered. I wish my dad had asked for more help when my mother passed. He lost out on money in more than one place because he waited too long after my mother died to file various paperwork. For him it only totaled a couple hundred dollars, which he could easily spare, but it's not the same in your situation.
You need to give yourself a little time, Maria. It's all still very new, and very raw.
{{{Maria}}} Ask some one to help you or pay someone to help you if you can. You should not have to do this all alone.
You aren't alone, Maria, there are so many around you who would be happy to help out.
I just want someone to make this nightmare go away. I can't do this.
{{Maria}} Let your support network prop you up. Are there people that some of us can contact for you?
I wouldn't have made it through the early part of last year without Plei, Cass, and some other close friends. They essentially ran my life for me for a while, and I needed that help.
{{Maria}} I can come out and help, too, Maria. You don't have to do this alone.
Maria, love, being strong sometimes means knowing when you need help, and asking for it. (((Maria)))
