  Well, I’m staying home today.  Trying to stretch the fuel. 

 

  I am just so … disillusioned.  I may also be impatient.  We tried to contact the agent who is reviewing my information and will determine if I can be covered for errors and omissions.  It’s been two weeks and no decision.

 

I’m experiencing some fallout from the brouhaha a couple weeks ago.  It seems that the same person who whacked me in the nose has decided to try to get even by filing an unrelated complaint against a close member of my family.  I can’t get into it here but I will say the complaint, if pursued by the authorities, will damage the future of a young person.  The complaint can’t be proven either way with evidence, well, physical evidence.  The incident would have happened months ago.  It would only be one child’s word against another.  But the severity of the accusation can follow this person for the rest of their life.  It could keep the young person from certain jobs.  It is also ripping a family apart as other family members are implicated. 

 

  I’ve seen similar stories in the news and the accused has almost always been convicted of something. 

 

  At the time, the one who whacked me threatened to call the police and I said “Go ahead.  You climbed out of your SUV to attack me. And _____ saw it.”  I opted not to contact the authorities following my ‘attack’, mostly because it was family and over.  But now, I’m wondering if that wasn’t the wrong thing to do because now this person feels powerful over me.  Obviously, since I didn’t follow through with my option I must be weak.  I did take pictures of my eye and can call a couple witnesses to the event.

 

  Then there is the organization I’m involved in.  The state president resigned due to health reasons.  Now, lucky me, I am the president.  It wouldn’t be a problem if it weren’t for no work, little money, school, and the family issue.  However, the organization in WV is struggling and people are expecting the state level officers to pull it out.  We’ll be holding a special meeting in October, something I have to set up.

 

  My stuff on Ebay isn’t going very well.  There are still two days left, but there are only two ‘Watches’ and no bids.  Only about 25 people have even viewed the items.

 

  So, I supposed I am in the depths of a personal economic downturn.

 

  I think I’ll run the vacuum.
