That was my response to my friend when we were going out and she asked me if she was going to have to treat me to dinner. I'm homeless; not because I'm poor but because there are no homes to be had.
I visited my apartment complex yesterday. There were two old ladies sitting outside. They were convinced that the entire structure was going to be torn down; since the first floor was flooded and the roof on the third floor is missing. So that leaves me without a home. One among thousands of people who no longer have homes.
I'm fine for right now; as I will be staying in a dorm at the school I'm attending. Whats next? Where do i go when school is over for the semester. Where will i live? What state will i be in? I could always go live at my job like so many others are doing, but thats not me. I don't care if the President of the company is living there too, it's not good enough for me. Crowds are not my cup of tea. I require privacy and alone time. Just the idea of working my shift and then not being able to leave makes me sick to my stomach. so staying at my job is not an option.
I sometimes wonder if I should just quit school and my job, pack up everything i own and just move somewhere and start over. Starting a new life seems alot easier than trying to rebuild the one i've lived for so long. The only thing i have thats holding me to my old life is my job where I have a little status and make a farely decent salary. I'm not a quiter; even though, quiting seems much easier than staying. I pray to the lord to give me guidance and strength.
I have to leave the dorm in December when the semester ends, so I have until then to decide what I'm going to do.
