Not looking for pity. But if you are having an awful December holiday, you aren't alone. This may be a chance to unload. I'll start.

My apt was flooded with rain 4 days ago, at ground level. For 4 days, my studio apt, carpet has been soaking wet, footsteps squishing, like stepping in a puddle. Property management wont do anything, hope I can talk sense into them before the floorboards rot and cave in.

You? It's OK, you're not alone.

I will say my holidays are definitely not as bad. My family never really celebrated any holidays besides a few prayer days for the deceased, so never really got into them as I've grown up. My cat though has been having problems with a UTI and likely CKD, and I've only really gotten her eating in the last couple weeks. Mostly meat sludge, no solids. I'm hoping she pulls through with the UTI and the CKD turns out to be at a lower stage. But I adopted her when she was 8, as a mature cat, so knew what I was getting into. Luckily she's been around to be almost 14 now, but I'm just afraid I won't have many more months or years with her. Plus the stress of finances, unemployment, and other responsibilities has been taking its toll so I've been crying more lately. But I'm doing what I can to help my situation.
