Last night was a very pivotal moment in America with the conviction of ex-president Donald Trump on all 34 felony counts. Donald Trump is now considered a convicted felon and I was in personal jubilation over this. Now one day later, I am taking a much different and more concerned look. The times ahead actually…

This Tuesday morning I am gearing up for yet another battle with the United States Social Security Administration. This is getting absolutely exhausting. I am trying to do something as simple as dropping my mom from being my representative payee for Social Security Disability. My mom is pushing 80 and she just cannot do it…

This morning my friend Jim got me to think about volunteering for an organization once I get my Social Security Disability straightened out. He made a good suggestion for helping seniors with their technology issues and I will strongly consider that. I am also thinking about Habitat For Humanity because I would like to do…

I had one really long and vivid nightmare about being homeless. I don’t have much in the way of fear but my worst fear is actually homelessness. I fear that much more than even death. I think death would be preferable to homelessness for me. The dream was so vivid it included the sights, smells,…

So today I am even more frustrated because nothing seems to be working correctly and it’s spilling over into my feelings. It is like the ripples from tossing a stone in a pond.

I had my intake for Section 8 housing with NAMI so the wait is over for affordable housing. I guess…

I just had a memory from back on February 29th of this year. That was the day I was released from the hospital after my second stay in the behavioral health unit due to an active suicide attempt. I was sitting at my computer and just catching up on emails and other things that I…

This morning I went through a tiny adventure of having renamed my boot logical volume without updating the /etc/fstab file, and in the process, I broke my system and simultaneously figured out there are quite a few more things I had to do. So, if you ever want to rename a logical volume, here’s how…

I am so happy and relieved today because I got a call from NAMI with the good news that my number came up for subsidized housing. Also, the unit is in a nice suburban neighborhood and not the City of Wilmington which is also a nice added bonus. Since this is a program through both…

I have been thinking a lot about what a post-work society would look like. What would people do if they had a universal basic income. I know what I would do. I would pursue some passions of mine to help make society better. Personally, I think a lot of people would end up doing this.…
