Fumigation..ugh

It's been a crazy few days but it's a start to another new week.

I missed Zumba last Thursday to go to Home Depot and purchase self-fumigation canisters. I used the entire evening to pack away all my food and dishes, so my apartment is a mess right now. Friday morning, before I went to work, I closed all the windows and doors and set off all the fumigation canisters in my apartment. I went back during lunch time to vent out my place. Then I left for home after work. When I got home, my parents "fumigated" me before I went into the house and they wouldn't let me bring my stuff in, I had to leave everything in the car. I brought my entire wardrobe home with me so I would have the whole three day weekend to wash everything. So Saturday, I went to the local laundry mat, and used THREE "super giant" washing machines which cost like 15 quarters each to wash all my clothes. Keep in mind, these are just clothes I had from my apartment. Good thing I still have some clothes at home to wear. Then I had to use TWO gianormous dryers to dry them for like 40mins but they still didn't dry so I had to take them home and slowly dry them little by little at our home dryer. So all of this took almost the whole day. In between, I had to drop by the dry cleaners (because some of my clothes were dry clean only). I also managed to squeeze in some time to visit Henry, my baby nephew. Oh, he's such a cutie pie. In the evening, to thank my brother for all his help, I took him and my Dad out for Sushi. My dad really enjoyed it! He wants to go back another time with my mom! So that was Saturday.

Sunday I just ran errands with my mom, driving here and there and just everywhere. My brother said he had to go back to work around 2pm, so we sent him off and then my mom and I ran more errands. But my brother called me about 40mins into his drive and told me that they called him and he didn't have to go to work. So he met us up at the mall, I didn't tell my mom that he was coming, so he surprised my mom and it was nice. We all just went shopping for a little bit and then went out for Korean food at night. After dinner we went to visit Henry again, we can't get enough of that little cutie. I am sorta baby crazy, I have to admit.

Monday, we ran more errands. I was going to try to meet up with "Andy" but that was a bust. He wasn't willing to meet me at a neutral place and wanted me to go over to his mom's house. Which would have been awkward. Anyways, long story short, he wasn't willing to work with me so it didn't work out. I guess I'll just have to make a trip up there and investigate myself. For lunch I met up with Danny's sister. She just got engaged and she's going to get married this year in September!! My mom and brother went to the lunch meeting too, she brought her fiance. It was nice. My mom keeps saying how it's unfortunate that her mom didn't get to see her get married. She just passed away and here she is getting married. My mom felt really bad about that. I headed up early to check ou the damage of my place. The apartment manager told me that a professional pest company was going to come and treat the bed bugs at my place. I'm still kinda upset about it because they didn't ever tell me how they were going to treat and they didn't even give me special instructions to pack away food or anything, so I left some food out and I'm pretty sure they fumigated again because there was a sign that said "DO NOT ENTER" when I got back to my apartment. Ugh. So all the COSTCO size food stuff that I left out is going to be thrown away because they fumigated without telling me. I'm so upset about that. They also they are going to come back in March, so I'm going to just live out of my laundry baskets and try not to take stuff out because I don't want repack everything in a few weeksn when they fumigate again. I'm also still sleeping on my couch which is very uncomfortable.

I can't wait until my life returns back to normal and I can sleep on a bed and stop living out of a small laundry basket and have to santize everything because I eat it because I'm fearful that I'm going to ingest fumigation toxins. Speaking of which, my stomach hurts.

John, my doctor friend here, told me that he has a friend that ate some food that was left out during fumigation and she slipped into acoma! When she awoke, she couldn't WALK! She just recently recovered and started to walk again! So I don't want that happening to me! I'm really scared now! I'm going to google what types of foods are ok to eat after fumigation. Maybe something is salvagable....
