Update On Conflict

I won't have to move but I will have to deal with daughter coming over at reasonable times. I have no problem with that. I told roommate I will stay out of the way, not say anything to her when I go to take Ginger out or go to the kitchen to get something to eat. I can deal with that. I just don't know how often she will be coming over, yet.

So in order so I do not feel so vulnerable, I looked at my entire finances and saw where I can cut back even further. It is going to be very hard but it will leave me some money at the end. I have a goal of a certain amount of money to buy a vehicle as close to outright as I can and that will be reliable.

Then I looked at how many months I will need to save and be able to find a place I can afford and still be able to eat and at least have internet. At the most I am looking at January. I am also making room for times I might need to just go to a motel to get away from here at the times she is here and I might be dealing with more issues that leave me raw.
 
I wanted to update things from this conflict.

My roommate and I formed our own family of choice situation so in all intentions and purposes he is my brother now. His daughter has moved away after she had moved next door and rented a room. No, I'm not kidding. She tried to do alot when she was around but I kept firm on things and she finally stopped coming over all together.

My bro is on the road most of the time, and I in return watch the house and make sure things get's fixed and such. We pulled our resources together to make a better impact financially for both of us. This way I can get more therapy etc.

I did get a car now if I can get myself to drive it....:oops:. I also found my friend again from when I lived on the ranch in NM. I didn't realize how important it is to have witnesses to your life to remind you of the good things you do as well. If I did it once I can do it again.
