~It is presently 71° and 37% humidity. As it's just shy 6am I doubt it will go more than a degree or two cooler. The temps have however remained within tolerance for the swamp cooler during the afternoon. *knocks wood*

~I wanted to rant, but I wrote the following preface and now I really don't want to so much, though I'm still unhappy.

“First, I have to acknowledge Gratitude. If it were not for the financial help of Le-Le's cousin and someone here who shall remain nameless, we would have been quite thoroughly fucked this year. We're not talking a few bucks to 'tide us over', but several grand. Without that money we would not have been able to move into this place, among other things. Honestly, I have no idea where we would have wound up. Blessings for that. Truly.”

I wanted to rant because of a fucked up interaction with a Sister I'd been very supportive of, but who attacked me because I dared express my discontent with my Sisters. I'm done putting up with that kind of shit. However, at least she paid attention. No one else bothered to say a fucking word. Le-Le said, “It's like you've become background noise.”

I wanted to rant because Le-Le had a really rough night. I've been homeless on Skid Row, so generally speaking I'm happy to have a roof over my head. But this is new to her and she's having a hard time. If you're friends with her you can read her FO post.

We're still not in great shape. We're surviving and it seems Goddess has decided that we will continue to do so...and the last year nearly put us on the street and did wound us badly. I like to think I can take it, but I worry about Le-Le...
