The Roof Just Came Off Our Existence

I am so mad. I am sick again with whatever it was I had last month. I have it again and feel awful. So this evening my daughter brought a letter from Housing to me. It was a 24-hour FAIL. This means that the house was not clean to their specifications when Maintenance did its inspection on Monday. So, I am livid. I thought that my daughter was cleaning and doing a good job. That's not the case. Five items are mentioned. I would be embarrassed to say what they are. Things that anyone with half a clue would know to have/keep clean. So I was screeching mad and had to take one of my anxiety pills which I have not had to do in many months. I cannot believe that I live with two people who can let this place go so badly. I don't see how it is because I am upstairs in my room. If I am not on them continually it doesn't get done and the place becomes a pig sty. I even make a list of step-by-step instructions telling her how to clean a given area, with what, and so forth. She just doesn't care. It is so maddening to me. So, we have until tomorrow afternoon to get it in tip-top shape. I am worried sick. I hope all comes out okay. I also hope I can get some sleep tonight. I need to get well and get over whatever this is that I have.

It wasn't. They hit us in the morning and we are rather messy. It is all happening again today. Hope it goes okay. I posted about it.

The entire situation is awful and toxic. I hope you get some rest tonight. I'm sorry.

It sure is. I did rest. I just figure I can only do so much and they are much younger than me and just need to do it.

@celticeagle Maybe once a month you could go down and help dust or wipe down counters? I write this even as I look at my kitchen counter and see 'stuff' on it.

Maybe you should live in separate housing...

Believe me, I have thought and dreamed about that. I could live so cheaply and nicely alone except for the rent. But, the way our finances are and other things mean we just have to live together. I am my daughter's payee and I do the bills. I worry about them when I pass. I have written all the stuff down for my grandson and hope they will be okay. What more can I do?!

I hope you can start to feel better. And, really, I don't know why you can't take on some of the work, if you know your daughter doesn't do a good job.

I am going to do the bathroom upstairs and my grandson is going to help more. I can't stand for very long and so I can't do much. But do a little and then come back to it.

Oh my goodness, what a horrible and stressful situation. I hope your daughter can clean the place before they come back to inspect.

She didn't so we got a FAIL. They are back this afternoon. I hate this so much.

What a terrible situation. I hope the cleaning gets done and you feel better. They certainly don't give you much time to clean.

They don't know our situation and the mental issues. It is getting done.

I am so sorry your apartment didn't pass inspection. I hope your daughter and grandson can get it cleaned properly so it passes inspection today. I'd be angry too.

They didn't so we got a 24-hour FAIL. I am so sick of it. I used to work full-time and kept the house up just fine. They just need to do a better job.
