I’m Alive – Update on Life

Tweet

First I would like to thank everyone who has prayed for my horrid situation where I was living and everything that was going on. Also, I apologize for not staying in touch or responding to all the responses to my last post here at myLot but I’ve just not been able to be online much and not sure when I will be active here but will pop in from time to time. So, what’s been going on? There’s never a dull moment in Faith’s life that’s for sure. My son and I are staying with my sister and nephew. It’s really cramped here and sister’s house/home of 25 years is up for sale so not sure how long any of us will be here but it’s a roof over our heads and certainly not all bad. We have moved all our belongings (or at least what we could save) to a storage shed. It’s packed to the ceiling – thanks to my son and nephew both 6’4” tall. It was a lot of work but Saturday 2 sisters and brother-in-law helped then Sunday son and nephew helped. I’m exhausted:( I’ve been ‘job hunting’ as I would like to get a place of our own but my sister has asked us to stay for the time and actually appreciates having someone, me, here to talk to when she’s not working. Financially neither of us are doing too well as this is the sister that just graduated law school 2 years ago and the firm she’s with isn’t doing too well – the economy in our area is horrid. During my ‘spare time’ I’ve been write, write, and writing. I’ve submitted several articles to Associated Content and to Helium. I was thrilled when AC accepted 2 articles I submitted for upfront payment, have 4 more waiting for their offer, and they have accepted 4 others that I submitted as pay per view only (links to all on my profile). Hopping today to submit an article to Helium Market Place but not feeling real happy with it right now so may not even bother. I don’t have internet connection here on my computer but nephew gave me a thumb drive so I can transfer stuff I do on my laptop to sister’s computer and upload. It’s time consuming as she’s on the slowest dialup connection I’ve ever seen but better than nothing. Ok, before this turns into a book – Nope, I’m not living on the lake but gone is the garden and we are just a house away from Wolf Lake. Advantages to living here: lake, raft, hot tub, and no fighting. The photo I shared here is the view from sister’s raft docked and I uploaded a few other photos under ‘places I’ve lived – the lake’ if you’d like to see more. So, that’s the update – what’s been going on in your life?
