Grrrr!!!
I hate my computer!
I've been trying since I got up this morning to get online for more than a few seconds, and I finally succeeded. Let's see how long this lasts.
I got the much dreaded lecture from my family last night for the goings on in Gretna. They're trying to tell me I can't have anything more to do with Saon, but that's a decision I have to make, and I am not ready to make it yet. They want me to get counselling (which was my suggestion), find a permanent job (yeah, right...why do they think I take temp jobs? So I can FIND a permanent position) and help Mom out financially. I've wanted to do that the whole time I've been here, but jobs are not easy to come by, and how do I explain the year I wasn't working? My sister told me that I am NOT going to get disability and SSI in Oklahoma, because it is just too hard to get. If a terminal cancer patient can't get it (to use my sister's example), what makes me think that I am going to get it?
Easy-- go to a state where I CAN get it. Doesn't seem to be too hard to get it in Louisiana, since Saon's roomie got it easily enough.
Mark my words: I am going to Mardi Gras in February, and no one can tell me not to go. I am an adult, and if I want to do something, then dammit, I'm going to do it. Okay, yeah, I'll work, I'll help Mom out, but when I get the funds, I am so out of here. I think I got along better with my sister when I didn't live in Oklahoma. At least I didn't have her constantly bitching at me. And no matter where I live, I can still send Mom some money every payday.
Granted, I did err a bit on all this, but if I had anticipated any of what eventually happened before I went, I would have never gone. Next time I'll know...if there is a next time. It's too soon to tell.
