It is Set!!! I leave on the 7:35 A.M Bus, Saturday!!

I will be taking along my paperwork, Laptop, my way old camera, My dress shoes, my light suit, my no slip shoes, 2 pairs of Dress slacks (one black, one kaki), some unmentionables, and some other small IMPORTANT odds and ends.

The goal is to have the laptop case at 25 pounds and the backpack at 50 or less.

Tomorrow is my last day at the store. I pick up the last check either Wednesday or Friday depending on when the US mail delivers it. My last day will be a 9 hour run. But then the hard part of waiting happens.

Primavera will be closed on Sunday so I have been trying to contact the Salvation Army to see if they will have an opening. I will have a small amount of money, so I hope, if need be, I can find a cheep motel. But then again the Salvation Army may have an opening.

I will figure out something. I may be as unlucky as a black Cat, but I always land on my feet!

Maybe a nice Tucsonite DU member will see it and have suggestions, even give you a place to stay.

But I am sure I can work this out. Monsoon time is close to over so many of what is known as Hardcore homeless with be wanting to get back to there places. That means that those needing the emergency 7 day shelter that most shelters supply are open.

So getting in the Salvation Army will be way easier. And I can get a lot of stuff done while I am in there. Stuff that if can get it done myself, it will speed out what Primavera can do for me.

And I will need to get a hold of what they call CODAK. I do suffer from PTSD thanks to the tornado and this with my ex SO has not help much.

So I can get my sessions started again, set up my Food Stamps, and start getting applications in (I have started on line already) . Things will be looking up.

delivered to you by mail. Or do you mean that the company headquarters will send your check by mail to the store you worked at so you can pick it up in person? Given what you have told us about your family, I wouldn't trust them with the mail.
