So
here it is the New Year and life for the moment is stable. Hanging
out at my dad's for a bit longer then the plan is to head to
Quartzite, AZ and meet up with some friends there. From there who
knows where the wind will take me. I have some places I would like to
go but they aren't carved in stone.
That
is one thing I have come to realize with this new life of mine is
that you can plan on doing something but if it is carved in stone
then you risk crumbling into a thousand pieces, where as if you are
like the willow you learn to go with the flow.
So
yeah I have an idea of places I would like to go and even have
figured out how far each place is from one point to another it
doesn't mean I will have the funds or the time to get there.
On
the dating scene I think I've got my profile done as well as I can
on OKC and I am
talking with someone there but for some reason I seem to be
attracting the ones that are thousands of miles away. But at least it
is getting me back into learning how to communicating with people
that I might be interested in.
Dating...wow...even
that is difficult living the home free life. I mean you either
connect online with someone you can only hope will be interested in
you in the real world and not be some kind of psycho or have a savior
complex.
Then
you have to figure out how you are going to dress up and not have
animal fur on your clothing since your home on wheel is basically one
big hair ball. You have to time the date so that it isn't going to be
to hot or in some cases too cold for you furry companions.
What
happens when you tell your date that you are home free if the subject
hadn't come up before? Are they going to want to report you for being
a nomad or run away from you thinking you are the psycho?
What
if they except the fact and want to get a little closer? Unless you
can find a hotel that accepts your whole family they have to stay
locked up. Yeah I tend to over think things but after the last
fourteen years I have a lot to unlearn.
Spontaneous
used to be easy now it is just down scary and hard.
Making
money....It is easier when I have access to the internet then I can
have my Etsy shop up and running and offer my products on FB through
different avenues but it isn't always enough to cover costs such at
storage unit costs, my mailbox fees, insurance, gas, critter care,
and the past due bills I still have.
Still
I do make some money and as long as I can continue to meet my monthly
financial goals then just maybe I can start to get ahead and start
thinking about finding a place that I can call my home base.
The
1.6 billion power ball jackpot got me thinking about what I would do
if I won and to my surprise I found myself saying I would upgrade to
a small RV and have a place with a tiny house to call my home base.
How different that answer would have been a year ago.
To
have a parcel of land with basically a tuff shed with indoor
plumbing, electricity, solar, internet would give me a permanent
residence so that I had a physical address which would allow me to
have a bank account again.
Don't
ever fall into the trap that you can quiet your mind it isn't
possible but it is possible to redirect, or eliminate some, but you
can't make your brain shut down completely. Trying to do so will only
up your levels of stress causing its own set of problems.
Okay
time for this rogue to stop rambling her ass off,
Jo
