Things aren’t getting much better for me. It’s just me and the dog. The guy I hired to do handyman work on my house turned out to be abusive and beat me up a couple of times. I had to call the police and now have a Temporary Restraining Order against him.

Never in my life have I been involved with an abusive man. I was extremely generous and the reason he beat me up was that I asked for my keys back and wouldn’t give him $54. Yes. He busted out the passenger window in my car and then pulled me out of the driver’s seat by the collar and drug me along his concrete driveway. Luckily I had my phone in my hand and 911 was on the line. Six squad cars showed up. He had gone back into his apartment when he found out they were on the line because he was planning on hitting me. After a half a dozen threatening phone calls later that evening, the next morning he calls and professes his love for me.

I haven’t spoken to him in nearly a month yet he keeps calling and texting. I can’t have him arrested because the court date had been moved out to June and I was waiting until 5 days before the court day to serve him but now it’s two weeks away and I have to find someone to serve him because it’s too late to have the Sheriff do it. I’m just trying to minimize the level of violence should there be any. I have not protection from him.

I’m disabled and survived a traumatic brain injury as a result of a texting driver. I thought the best move for me would be to move to a warm climate and live in state that has medicinal marijuana. I was showing early signs of Parkinson’s Disease according to my neurologist. I struggled with dismal diagnosis for five years until I say another neurologist who basically said that I didn’t have Parkinson’s. I’m still processing that.

I had prepared to live my live one way and now that I have the physical and mental freedom from PD, the possibilities are endless. My life looks a whole lot different to me except I can’t overcome this endless streak of bad luck that I keep encountering. Here I am looking for someone to drywall my bedroom because the handyman did such a sloppy job and didn’t finish the work, I have to pay someone to finish it. Just about everything he touched has to be redone. He has the nerve to expect me to finish his website. ??? Trusting people is a downfall.

Trading in my Lexus for my convertible dream car with Carvana. The convertible top is broken and will cost $18,000 to fix. I bought the warranty with the car but they are reluctant to fix the car because of the cost. It sat at the dealer for more than a week. I have to call Carvana to get them to call the warranty company to expedite the repair. The only person talking to me is the guy at the Nissan dealer, he let me know that the car was going to be fixed. Neither Carvana nor the warranty company bothered to call me. I finally have a car with an operational convertible top but all the trouble I went through. Not my fault.

How much bad luck can I possibly have? I don’t see any positives in any of this. No takeaways either. This is just the tip of the iceberg.
