As things stand now...

troublemaking cousin is thankfully not comin up here...

social security evaluation is over; this one emphasized drugs, alcohol and anxiety. It took a lot out of me and I'm beat. The local social security office has my file now so that's taken care of as well. 

a supportive cousin called from out of the blue and we will try to get a regular contact time set up.

My fixed expenses look good too...compared with what i used to spend ($760 in rent and utilities alone every month...

car insurance $65 a month

storage locker $47 a month

gasoline $80 a month (mostly for transit to Gresham to get resources; 10 miles each way from home base)

transit pass $66 a month

food $100 a month (along with $150 in food stamps)

gym membership $35 a month (i still owe em $110)

operating expenses $100 a month

laundry $20 a month

and i still have $200 left...so you see it IS doable :))

infinite gratitude to all...
