My access to the internet is very limited right now, but I just want to check in on this thread and let all of you who have been so kind as to reply to me that I am OUT of the dangerous environment I was in. My cats, rat, and I are safely in a different town. I am searching all day, every day for a rental here. A VERY competitive rental market in northern California, but eventually something has to turn up. The squatter is STILL at the house I quite literally fled a week ago when he became even more threatening toward me. I've been back to the house once (a terrifying experience)...the house has been burglarized...I have lost most of my possessions, and most of those are things my parents left to me. This is all such an enormous mess...all because I tried to be kind to a man who turned out to be pure evil.

I am looking forward to when I have my computer back and leisure time to be online. Until then, all prayers and good thoughts are most welcomed. Thank you. Love all around~
