Waiting for a stray bullett from a drive-by
So there I was having a decent year when all of a sudden......bam! dodgeball to the face.
1.) My mother was forced to go to part-time work at her job, losing her insurance and benefits.
2.) She loses her other job when the woman she cared for passed away last weekend.
3.) She lost a large chunk of her retirement/401k.
4.) I was involved in a minor car accident with a person with no insurance, costing around $1100.
5.) I lost a rather healthy portion of my 401k (71.8% to be exact).
6.) Thanks to the loss of my retirement fund, the bank I've used for 25 years denied my home loan.
7.) The fact that my mother can no longer pay bills means she will be looking for a new place to live.
8.) I am unable to help her pay any bills without also moving to a more degraded slum than now.
9.) A weird genetic trait that falls on my fathers side is around the mid to late 30's a person in our family develops diabetes and asthma.....Guess who has asthma?....forgot to mention that due to my smoking, my insurance company decided to drop me.
And now for the be all to end all......drum roll please!
10.) As of August 29, the current location I'm working at will be closing it's doors for good. That's right! I will be unemployed and, due to my willingness to be loyal to the company, several years ago I signed a No Compete Clause. Nice hunh? I am not allowed to work for any other company involved in the same industry I am currently partaking or the only one I know without being sued.
Mind you, this has all taken place over the last few weeks.
So, if anyone has any good suicide suggestions that they'd like to share, I'm all ears.
