Hi all,
I've been lurking. Live has been busy. We are moving this weekend. Daughter #2 and Granddaughter are moving into their own apartment. Woo hoo! Daughter #1 is back to using drugs and still living with her fiancee. I have decided I just need to let her deal with that and I can't help her with her issues. I have to take care of myself right now. I am exhausted with the packing and filtering of all the things. I've decided to really streamline my life and get rid of a lot of unnecessary things. I know I had planned to get disability, but with my daughters situation, and my inability to find a place to live due to my bad credit, I decided to collect unemployment for a year and rent a room from a friend. The fear of having NO income, losing my car, and having no place to live was just too overwhelming. I couldn't "choose" to become a homeless person. That was just too drastic. I have one year of unemployment coming, so I chose to collect that while I work on trying to get my PN under control and my stress back to a manageable level. I have a lot of unpaid bills still looming over my head from the divorce and I need to get them paid off before I can get an apartment. My credit is ruined and I have to fix that problem first. By renting a room, I can keep my car, focus on my health, and get my stress under control. However, after December I will no longer have Health Insurance. In January I plan to return to work and if I can not keep up, then I will deal with it then. I've just got to take this one step at a time. I can't imagine being a homeless person with PN. I have to be able to provide myself with a place to live, then from that point forward I will deal with the other issues. I'll check back in a few days after the move to see how everyone is doing. Hugs to you all! Terri |
