Bad hip and pickpocketed .

Post Reply New Topic

Far worse , in the cosmic sense , came first but , to-day , on the way to this computer lab , my pokcet was picked in the Tenderloin , while resting from my bad-hip uphill walking .
At least $40 cash was taken , plus my Green Dot crappy ATM card , which last I looked IIRC had about $59 in it .
So , about $100 taken - at least - .
Far more cosmically worse , I was told earlier today that the result of my X-ray last week was that there's a hip flaw (I forget the word he used) in my hip - Something apparently I was born with but it took 55 years to act up .
Now , too , I can start to REALLY slow down , and be prey for the stronger animals - as the pickpocketing proves .

That sounds awful. I feel very sorry for you. It's terrible that someone did that to you.

...It is difficult for me even to dress in my room , as lifting my leg to put underwear on standing up is painful ~ and , with only 7&12 toes , my feet's grasp upon the floor is unsteady . Falling down was already a worry .
The extreme direct sunlight and reflected light DO affect my eyes when I'm gone from there - And , the " lead/mercury " do tend to have this miasma//mood(??) effect on me , I'm murky and not wanting to get away ~ I'm crummy--feeling til' I've been in fresh air for a while , when I go away to walk - uphill to computer situations , etc. - I tend to really want then to lie down , but I have to do something - and , it additionally encourages me to get some Coke/Dr. Pepper then , to caffeniate myself .
In the morning , after taking my water pill then , I then tend to go back to bed/sleep in order to have the water pill have an effect on me a couplish hours later of making me pee then , so I don't have to when I'm outside .
However , that's somewhat wasted time , in the bed waiting to need to pee - And ny sleep may be inferior , with the excess light - Which I feel even with a sleepmask on tightly AND blankets over my eyes !
And , this undredish dollars stolen can be added to the hundreds and hundreds $ otherwise depleted on stolen/taken-gone/used up stuff all these months - Now I'm minus $100 more instantly , for NOTHING , pplus whatever other cards may have been stolen .

...If I was to" set up housekeeping "/try to bild up some stuff , either in this room or elsewhere , I'd need money , really , to do things such as (suggested to me) " get a refrigerator " or (I thought) get a lock radio , or improve me clothes , other things , like getting new copies of my birth certificate , a PO box??

That sucks dude, i feel sorry for you.

A tip for the future: Wear your wallet on the inside (inside a jacket pocket) and have a second wallet with some old cards and stuff that makes it look real and maby $5-$10 in an open pocket, that way if you are pickpocketed/robbed at knifepoint, you can give the crap wallet to a robber. Had a friend who was robbed a few years ago, and i have been pickpocketed myself when i was younger and poorer and learned this the hard way.

Also don't flaunt your money around in public, that is like setting up a sign for people to follow you until you are in a vulnerable position, like crossing over a park or heading down a dark road.

...I do have important/other stuff on an inside pocket , in fact , I ha , luckily , " only " switched $40 or so to the big pocket that day and left $60-80 more in the inside pocket .

...Late this Thursday , the day I started this line , I had another diareeic attack after I finished the computers , it led to the destruction of the basic clothes I was wearing , taking me down to , as of now , only what I am wearing for a full set of long-pants-and-all clothes , what I'm wearing is the only such set I have now (I have some subs/other " stuff . Most need washing .)
However , worse was to happen afterwards that night...

If it's just urine, or even if it's the other thing, these sorts of stains usually go away pretty readily in the washer.

I wish you could buy a large bar of soup, and just wash those paints in water and rub the soap around the pants, so you can save them.

The key is the smell. If you can get rid of the smell, you can keep clothes. Just make sure you get to the Laundromat as quick as possible.

...Well , if you had seen them...........

...The stealing of my Green Dot card not only took the money in it but it took my ability to do a " saving of money " of sorts ~ I could put some money in it , but I would have to spend more money to buy and load a new one ~ MORE THINGS DEPLETED:cry: ~ NO MATTER WHAT , I cannot get my footing (the crippled-ness aside , I mean more generally " my footing " ) , if I COULD ONLY get a little extra funds and catch up/set up things somehow ...

...It's 2 sets of " long pants and more " basic clothes , I mean , that is what I now possess in clothing , (Plus additional substitutes/things for some ~ Like , one sports jacket (too small) I wear all the time and as of right now just two top- of-torso T-shirts of any kind (I'm wearing one) , no more) , what I have on and one more ~ I am disinclined to go , now , to the Goodwill near me , where an employee was very nasty to me , as I posted before ~ Still , especially with my physical limitations , getting around any length is a chore somewhat .

Are there any flea markets or charity shops that sell money belts?

...I doubt it , but thank you .
Let me , Slen , expound upon the sports jacket ~ What I have is quite large , but it is still small on my quite large shoulders ~ Would some kind of second-hand shop in a rather old persons' neighborhood/place that get's a lot of , say , elderly widows' disposal of Hubby's clothing , hve something like that ? However , I don't know whether , and if so , where , such a second-hand store is .
What I have is this " natty/tacky " checked jacket thing , kinda 70s/80s as I see it ~ I fell into wearing sports jackets cuz' they're got lots of pockets , including inside one...I kind of backed into it being my " look " later on it occurred to me the parallel to old B-pictures'/comic books from 60 years ago or so depicting , um , " residentially challenged " folk as loveable old duded in blown-out suits and wearing a fedora hat or whatever and tipping their hat to ladies they're trying to get handouts from and saying " Greetings , Madam ! Might I have the pleasure of enjoying your fine victuals ?..." - I tell myself I'll get a tie and an also-striped button-up long sleeved shirt and wear it , either all the time or to church anyway but I end up not doing it , but I don't have such a shirt or a tie now , money ~ & getting around , my crippledness and stating out late every day ~ is a factor and , for a longsleeved shirt to fit over my stomach I need , probably , a quadruple XL or so...
With a sports jacket and jeans and full-foot/walking sandals (Even?? with 2&1/2 toes now gone , sob ) I get homeless-called " Professor " sometimes ...
