This is a new weekly blog post that I'm calling Apartment Hell Life. I've mentioned a few times some of the crazy things that go on in and around my apartment complex in the past 20 years that we've lived here and people keep telling me I should write a book. But instead of a book, I've decided to share the crazy things that have happened in and around my apartment complex in the last 20 years here in a weekly blog post.
Unbelievably it's been pretty quiet around here this week. We've seen the police patrolling around quite a bit but I haven't seen them parked or at anyone's apartment this week.
Of course when I had the dog out for a walk I did spot something that shouldn't have been there in the alley by one of the parking curbs... a needle. Thankfully it had a cap on it so I threw it in the trash so a kid didn't get a hold of it.
So that's it for this week's Apartment Hell Life! Be sure to come back next week for more.

Today is also my 15 year Blogoversary!
I can't believe I've had this blog for 15 years. So thank you to those of you that have been here a long time and to those who are fairly new. I hope to be around many more years.

Life Update:
Ken found out that the cancer has spread to his rib bones on the left side but it hasn't spread anywhere else. They did tell him that he has stage 4 cancer since it went from his lung to his brain and rib bones though. They surgically implanted a chest port this week so he can start chemo and they are going to start radiation on his brain lesions as well soon.
Happy Blogoversary, girl! 👏🏻💛
ReplyDeleteThat needle... 🙄 Ew. 😏
Hope Ken gets better. 💚
Thank you.

I hope so too.

I will hold you and Ken in my heart, and hope that the rotten disease spreads no further.

Thank you. I really hope so too.
DeleteIt's crazy that you find something to talk about for your Apartment Hell series every week! Needles now...ugh.
ReplyDelete15 years are a very long time for a blog to be around! I don't know anybody else who's had a blog for so long. Happy belated blogoversary, and here's to many more years!
I'm sorry your family has to go through this. I hope the treatment will be able to block the cancer spread. Best wishes.
Thank you. Yeah, I've been around for a long time. I hope the treatments work too.
DeleteFifteen years is amazing dedication to blogging - congratulations!!
ReplyDeleteWe're keeping Ken in our thoughts. It's good that he is able to access the chemo so quickly
Thank you. It doesn't seem like 15 years. I hope Ken can get it started soon.
DeleteI'm so glad that Ken is getting started on treatment. That at least is a positive move and will get things moving. I really hope this treatment halts the spread and starts working on getting rid of some of what is there. My thoughts are with your family every day x
ReplyDeleteThank you. I know you are going through a lot right now too.
DeleteThat's good you spotted that needle and could throw it away before a kid stumbled upon it.
ReplyDeleteHappy blogoversary! Wow 15 years!
I hope the treatment will help Ken. Stage 4 doesn't sound good and that it's in his rib bones as well :(. I am so sorry you have to go through this.
Yeah 15 years is a long time.
