Have I Made A Difference [1]

['This Content Is Not Subject To Review Daily Kos Staff Prior To Publication.']

Date: 2025-06-03

I am seriously depressed. I just got paid my social security and after paying bills I have $13.00 left for groceries for the month. I have made sales from my My Fine Arts America https://fineartamerica.com/profiles/1-michele-wilson unfortunately they wait a month to pay you in case the customer decides they don't want it. For some reason Daily Kos is incapable of displaying the correct link so you will need to type it in.

I know I have done some good in my life. I was a caregiver for my Mom who never really liked me. I was a caregiver for my brother Reid until they stopped giving me rabbits to pull out of my hat. I helped my grand nephew get into the Navy liked he wanted.

I have been writing here since May 5, 2008. I have shared recipes, art and the love of black cats. What I don't know is if I have made a difference with my writing. I have always lived my life with the goal of helping others. I don't know if I have reached that goal.

The arthritis is always with me and getting worse. I am in constant pain.

I am at loose ends at the moment. Taking care of Pixie is my main occupation. A 20 year old cat who is convinced she is a Princess does take some work. I continue to write and create new recipes. It helps keep me busy but I am just weary in body, mind and spirit.
