So me and my teen and pets have been at a really homey place for about 5 days...
Had a friend and her tribe stuck in an icky Reno place and recommended here. They do pets and are offering a discount....
My daughter has been with my senior parents as well with pets...she has no car .
Got both of them hooked up
Had to drive over mt rose hwy to Gardnerville to get the daughter and menagerie and roommate to bring them back here... literally 6 hrs round trip.
But we're all in a safe place.
Good news is my friend and I got to have dinner... before we passed out from stress
And my kid is also feeling better because staying with my folks can be hard ...
Still no word on when we can all go home 🏡🥰🙏😭
I'm with the other teen, and my pets. We're moving to another place till the 11th ..but squaw valley is only 5 miles from here...if we need to we can come back here
It's been a wild week
I miss my deck and yard and bed
Drained my acct to get the place at squaw valley... even at a discount
People in Tahoe city and Truckee have been so supportive... we're all mtn folks
Msg me if you want to do PayPal info...we will get something from the county foundation on the 9th but I'm tapped out for groceries
My hotel where I work is closed so my mgr told me to apply for unemployment...a whole 'nother level of adulting...🥺😜

(17,604 posts)..front door since the heat bubble in June. Wish the gvnt could help private owners of forest land with some of the floor cleaning and tree trimming. We have dead limbs 40 feet up and no way to get to them. We snagged the guys who were trimming limbs for the power company and they trimmed a few of the lower pines for 100$ an hr.
Stay safe and sane in this insane world! check in when you can...

(13,355 posts)We were supposed to have money dropping from Venmo but it is a holiday and nobody is around to call at the bank...
I'm sitting in a random parking lot trying to figure it out
I owe the place we checked out of $375... And my card just got declined at McDonald's 😣😭
PayPal account email is journalgrrl@gmail.com
I hate having to beg for help
I am afraid to call my parents again... besides the bank is closed so he can't go deposit anything for us...
Fuuuuuuuuuk

(13,355 posts)So they're going to wait to charge me when the money hits the bank...
Now we're waiting for the new place to finish being cleaned... animals in the car with us. Cat almost escaped!
Next is to figure out groceries 😜
At least the new place has a kitchen!!! But, um, food? Lol
