I've been doing a lot of muddling lately. Muddling right on through the pea soup fog of life! The foggy particulars are, simply put, a home and a vocation.
I need a place to live in Portland. I'm having a devil of a time finding something to fit within my reduced budget, and because of my urgency to relocate, I'm faced with forfeiting the security deposit on my abandoned digs in Augusta. It doesn't help, of course, that I want to live on my own. At present, I'm sleeping on a foam mat on Matt's living room floor. It's not so bad, but you know... I'm feeling the desire for a local home base. On to vocation---> Meanwhile, I'm trying to sift through the bureaucracy of becoming a paid PCA for Matt. The pay is terrible. I'm not even sure if it's a livable wage (it's significantly less than what I currently collect from unemployment), but we're going to give it a whirl. I guess. Regardless, I'm going to need another job. Something fun, easy, light. Something I will never have to take home with me and that won't turn me into a vacant zombie. Or a raging bitch. Or an embittered hag.
Or am I all of those things already?!?!?!? Hee.
