I started this entry at 11:45 P.M. and will wrap it up after midnight.
As of this day, I have lived in The Conversion Van Of Wonders with Bob The Van Eating Dog for 14 months, but for a few nights in the hospital.
Oddly, the year went by pretty fast. I was surprised. I still don't miss the house at all. Just 2 days ago the new owner stopped me and asked about a couple of things, and I felt nothing....nada..and just answered his question to the best of my recollection. Even offered to stop by and show him a couple more things.
I have been in there more than a dozen times since the lockout 14 months ago.
What I do miss is the stuff that disappeared with home ownership.
Friends
Relatives
Significant Acquaintances
A Kitchen
I really like to cook.
But by and large, I guess I am doing ok. I was just given a NEW down alternative queen size, 250 thread count, comforter in a nice neutral brown. It will go with the beige flannel sheet set I got at a yard sale last year, BRAND NEW, for 3 bucks. Got to get my winter stuff down from the rooftop carrier and launder it all.
It's 11:51 P.M. now. After midnight I will continue with the anniversary of the biggest mistake I made all year....
Stay tuned!
(tick tock...tick tock...)
DING! 12:00 A.M. Tuesday, Oct. 5th
My bigest mistake of the year? Using 911. Had I not, simply blew it off as strained muscles from stuff I was doing at the storage units, this would all have been done.
Live and learn....won't make that same mistake again.
And since I DID make the error in judgement, I guess I will write more stuff here and see if anyone is interested.
So...until next time....

You're not the only one to write off pain or discomfort as simple pain & discomfort. My wife recently went through an appendectomy & extended recovery period because she thought she had gas. I probably should have insisted on a hospital visit.
ReplyDeleteA day later she was in the hospital. So everyone does it. Although yours sounds more serious than an appendix. Just wanted to let you know that you're not alone in the mistake department.
What would all have been done?
ReplyDeleteNot sure I understand your question. Can you elaborate?
ReplyDeleteSure,
ReplyDeleteYou said, "My bigest mistake of the year? Using 911. Had I not, simply blew it off as strained muscles from stuff I was doing at the storage units, this would all have been done."
What,"would all have been done."?
Now I understand your question...
ReplyDeleteMy life would have been done and all I have dealt with since never would have happened and been endured.
I would be in my condo in the clouds, with a view,and "Platinum" Triple Play FiOS.
