RE: Update - Charon - 11-06-2015
i am a survivor. i hate it, but i am. but, i thank u. made me smile before i signed off. its far more overwhelming than when i solved all the problems just even two years ago. but i was so much older then, i am younger than that now.Bob Dylan: My Back Pages
"My Back Pages"
Crimson flames tied through my ears
Rollin' high and mighty traps
Pounced with fire on flaming roads
Using ideas as my maps
"We'll meet on edges, soon," said I
Proud 'neath heated brow
Ah, but I was so much older then
I'm younger than that now.
Half-cracked prejudice leaped forth
"Rip down all hate," I screamed
Lies that life is black and white
Spoke from my skull, I dreamed
Romantic facts of musketeers
Foundationed deep, somehow
Ah, but I was so much older then
I'm younger than that now.
Girls' faces formed the forward path
From phony jealousy
To memorizing politics
Of ancient history
Flung down by corpse evangelists
Unthought of, thought, somehow
Ah, but I was so much older then
I'm younger than that now.
A self-ordained professor's tongue
Too serious to fool
Spouted out that liberty
Is just equality in school
"Equality," I spoke the word
As if a wedding vow
Ah, but I was so much older then
I'm younger than that now.
In a soldier's stance, I aimed my hand
At the mongrel dogs who teach
Fearing not that I'd become my enemy
In the instant that I preach
My existence led by confusion boats
Mutiny from stern to bow
Ah, but I was so much older then
I'm younger than that now.
Yes, my guard stood hard when abstract threats
Too noble to neglect
Deceived me into thinking
I had something to protect
Good and bad, I define these terms
Quite clear, no doubt, somehow
Ah, but I was so much older then
I'm younger than that now.(it just fit, somehow. i used to have answers.)

RE: Update - Charon - 11-08-2015
Thank u, harley.
Actually, I am. You are all helping with the forum. You all have great ideas about the move.
I am so grateful for all of u. And, having Athena and Ice Wizard to help has taken away 75% of stress.
Partner is attempting to sell his tools box and his car. He is working in his shop. We may defeat this eviction notice after all.
Thank u again. Sincerely.

quick update: rich man Landlord finally saw partner today. (partner tried to sell his swords and tool box and german steins. got 80$ only.)
Landlord (whom partner has known and worked on his cars about 12 or 22 yrs, cannot recall,) said, don't worry.
It is outrageous that medicaid will only give him 54$ a month for an apt.
So, we have to keep packing. Getting ready. If we can be here through his reversal surgery, we can move to adirondecks or such thereafter. I can afford that maybe. For both of us. Till he gets back on feet.
So, prayers always help. Thank u. (Landlord has lied before. I don't trust him. Partner does. I cannot.)
RE: Update - Charon - 11-16-2015
there is a motel here. i stayed whilst i was divorcing. it is used for homeless. i had to pay 1800 a month for one room.
they would not let us share a room. no cooking abilities. the good part is that the motel had ice. we got plastic foam and made our own iceboxes.
i actually had so much fun there. met great women down on their luck. but, no way can i pay 1800 a month again.
we shall see, fire.
so, all of u be good. i must help partner do his disability claim (temporary) online now.
hopefully be back later.
