I can hardly believe that it has been two weeks since I last posted on here. It’s been hectic and I really tend to lose time when it gets that way. I should write more during these times since it seems to give me a center to use as a touchstone, but, unfortunately, I have not been utilizing that. I just haven’t felt like I have the time and most of what probably would have fallen out of my head would have been vile stuff.
Anyway, as you can tell, chaos has stopped by for another visit. It’s been especially toxic this time, or maybe that’s just me. It has felt like one thing after the other is falling apart and the temporary foundation I had started to build for my house of cards is crumbling. It’s disappointing.
Work has pretty much dried up. Thank goodness for the condo common area cleans or I would have no income at all right now. I’m really worried how I am going to make it through this without it completely knocking down all the progress I’ve been making. My fingers are crossed and The Committee is in a tizzy trying to come up with a viable game plan.
My car stranded me yesterday. The starter and the alternator went out on it. It currently is sitting in the O’Reilly’s parking lot. I have no way of towing it home that won’t cost me money, which I don’t have, so I have thrown it on Craigslist with the hopes that I can sell it quick. At least then I would have a little bit of money to throw into the van. It’s moderately driveable, but I definitely wouldn’t try to go any distances with it. Thankfully, the condo buildings aren’t too far, though there are some hills along the way that I’m pretty sure the van is not going to make it up. I’m still trying to map out a non-hilly way to get there.
SO, Trump won the election. I have to admit that this just really sounds like a horrible outcome but I guess we shall see how well a bigoted, misogynistic, self-center ego-maniac does as a US President. History has shown that having this type of person in a position of power doesn’t usually turn out well, but maybe this time will be different. I have to say, though, that, as someone on the lower end of the socioeconomic scale, I’m a bit concerned how all this will turn out. People on my end are usually the ones that lose the most in this type of situation. Maybe I’m wrong and that’s just my perception. Again, time will tell.
Well, I had better get going on the van. It’s Wednesday and I still have 9 buildings needing my attention and a son that has to head to class at 11am. Have a great day, Everyone!
