I wrote the “I’m a failure ” forum title. The worst did happen. The electric was shut off. Now they are trying to assign my dads old bill to me. (same house). I have a dear friend who is a lawyer and he is going to help me. My legs are still rubbery and my hands are shaking but I’m still here.

When I wrote I was failure. I believed it. I really did. II wrote that I may not be able to keep my house. I had people suggest a roommates….no. I want to be alone. I’ve earned my independence. Someone suggested a second job. I’m looking. I probably won’t be able to keep the house unless my lawyer can pull a “Hail Mary” play. . But I’m still here.

I may have found a nice place to live. It will be scary to start over. But…I’m still here.
