I also like my privacy, I don't like waking every morning to a lazy sucker in my house.  We have so little in common it is not funny. Spiritually, politically, socially, and substance abuse wise we are polar opposites. I like to be able to relax around the house and not have high blood pressure from the moment I wake up. I don't put up with much hogwash these days.  Be good to yourself Katydid!  Shalom. |
The really sad part is my brother is disabled with a spinal cord injury. He has a very hard time using his hands, and has difficulty with his gait. He does pay 200 dollars a month to help, and he only gets about 700 a month. He buys all the things he wants, or needs, except food. I buy most of the food, but if he wants something different he will buy that, and fix it for dinner. He was in the Army for almost 3 years in the 70's, and was a cook. He was a chef for around 20 years in a fancy restaurant in Florida. As far as the Army, he didn't get along with his new boss, and went awol, and got a other than honorable discharge, so he doesn't get any benefits from that. So he couldn't afford a place of his own, no one else in the family has any room, and if he had a place of his own, I would be very afraid I would go over there and find him dead.
