The End Of Summer Approaches.

Hello readers, here’s what been happening since my last post.  Late one night I was taking out the trash and I noticed a lady in a wheelchair in front of our main entrance. She’s staying at Dunduran Place Nursing home across the street recovering from surgery and she was upset. The lady explained there’s no staff about and she’s lock out of the building.  I don’t like seeing a woman cry so I offered to help by wheeling her to the building and I’ll try to get night staff to open the door for her.  Mission accomplished the lady was grateful and safe in the building.  I was just glad it wasn’t the middle of winter when I found her. 
Recently tenant Dean was going about bragging to other tenants he called the cops on me.  Last week a H.R. police officer knocked on my door while I was in the shower, I told him to wait while I dry off then I invited him in. I asked what this is all about. Apparently Dean made a complaint to the police dept I’m harassing him on this blog site.  I explained to the officer, Dean has taken the comment out of context and it was posted over a year ago. My response totally surprised the officer.  Never the less I wasn’t impressed with the officer’s cocky attitude and I told him so, I assured him I follow Blogger Terms Of Use and I know the legalities. I explained to the officer this blog site is my journal/diary where I express my thoughts by writing them down and I choose to share with the public.  There are millions of bloggers around the world and one inexperienced regional police officer is not going to stop us from posting our thoughts, ideas and opinions on social media. 
This gave me the opportunity to mention to the officer for a year I’ve had to put up with Dean’s verbal/insulting outbursts and I never retaliated.  I told him the KMHC office staff won’t do anything to shut Dean up.  Dean’s mental state and complaint was a waste of police work, the officer was aware and hinted about it.  I'm sure he went back to Dean’s unit and gave him shit for being a pest.  Before the police officer left my unit I asked for his badge number and he complied.   

On Friday we received another love note from the KMHC office. It seems the building is still having boiler issues and this week for two full days we’ll be without hot water.  It’s a good thing I'm a member of the Hamilton-Burlington YMCA I can go there to have a hot shower, shit and shave whenever I want and not worry about boilers blowing up. :P

Last night Dean went to the C.S. to file a complaint. He later comes back to the building arms flapping and freaking out with anger because the front desk police officer told him to get lost and stop bothering them. Way to go H.P.S. :)

Poor Working Environment

My unit is located near the KMHC office, along with a friendly wave or hello I see the junior staff going about their business in a cheerful manner with the exception of one employee.   You would think KMHC has a pleasant working environment but that is not the case.   March 2016 is when Urban Native Homes head office was forced to move from their former spacious location to the cramp basement level of KMHC.   There were approx. 8-10 staff members at the time.   Then the Urban Native Homes financial scandal broke out and soon after the current UNH acting director’s illicit past became public knowledge, everyone was worried will they have a job.  Fearful meetings going on in the community room, the rumor mill was in full rotation while I just stood back and observed the panic.   Check your search engine it states this building location is Urban Native Homes head office yet that is not correct.  There is no real head office, the organization has s...

The Passing of Dean King

There's not many original KMHC tenants left that I know, last week I got word tenant Dean King passed away, we were not related and I remember when he moved in the building we got along well, we hung out often and he shared stories about his life and family. Eventually I notice he wasn't the sharpest pencil in the drawer and I started drifting away thus ended our friendship. Dean didn't have the usual addictions most male aboriginals endure he didn't drink or do drugs the problem was his mental state which I believe began after an auto accident years before.  After I moved out of KMHC I'd often see him standing in line at the food bank in Gore Park in downtown Hamilton or hanging out with street friend Galina in Jackson Square food court. He didn't have many friends and other KMHC tenants just tolerated and accepted his strange behavior. He'd walk the streets looking disheveled and lost.  When I received the news Dean died I didn't feel sad I felt surpri...

Sandy Holland

On February 27th 2025 I heard the passing of tenant Elder Sandy Holland. I knew she was in bad health and said to her friend she's ready to go.  I met her years ago when she moved to KMHC she seem a bit daffy yet in a nice way, never spoke mean about others but had strong opinions about UNH staff. We would meet at UNH dinner functions and meetings and always offered me hug. She never got personal sharing her life stories with me which I can respect. RIP
