11. It is my curse.

Everything I touch turns to shit. For example: I have been in three bands in my career that I did not start. I was an add-on. Each band folded not too long after I joined. Two of them had been in existence for over a decade. Cursed.

I warned my husband. I told him that I was cursed and if he hooked up with me, it would affect him as well. I am betting he believes me these days.

Yes, we have an appointment with a realtor on Monday to see a cheap one bedroom. I mean cheap. No amenities. It will literally be 'cabin living'. I may end up washing clothes in the shower. But, it is all we can afford.

Anything that happens to us is going to cause us to be completely broke. My body just keeps on failing and they STILL refuse to do anything. Of course, now that we have King Orange, there will be nothing coming from the government I served and stood by for decades. I should have always gotten the scratch under the table. Watching the rich milk our federal coffers while I have to decide between meds and eating is outrageous.

But, here we all sit, eh?
