Just got a visit from the “new owner” of my house. Evidently i have anywhere from 10 days to 4 weeks to scram … that ain’t much time to find a solution or to get a lucky break.
I know one solution that i’ve had in my back pocket for a couple years now for just such an occasion … maybe it’s time to drag it out and dust it off … Â the clock is ticking …
countdown dawg

That’s rough, Dawg. I’m very sorry to hear this. I hope your ‘solution’ isn’t what this website was built for… 😐
You don’t have anywhere to go?
You always come off so charming Dawg. You should be able to charm yourself onto someone’s couch, surely?
Shit dawg I am so sorry to hear this. 🙁
Aww man dog thats horrible….You’re an awesome person and I wish things like this wouldn’t happen to people like you….good people….I hope something turns around for you….
I’m hoping so too … i’m not overly confident, but that don’t mean i’ve given up, that just isn’t me … that said, the writing is on the wall and there are only certain “plays” that can be made … so, over the next couple weeks we’ll see if ive’ sewed any good will and karma into the fabric of life that will sufficiently create the possibility for a return on the “investment” … know humanity as i do … i’m sure you appreciate my skepticism in that happening … but it happened when my vehicle died a couple years ago (see my first post here) … i was completely and utterly screwed without a vehicle for work and then when everything seemed completely lost and the last move had been played, a person, who had attempted suicide and i comforted at their time of need … stepped in and gave me a vehicle that wasn’t being used from a business that person had run that went belly up. Like it fell out of the sky – except no prayer was required LOL – just “cost” me some time, kindness and honesty to a person i never expected could/would be able to help me in my situation at that time. This
@Muspelhem … i’m not sure i would find that acceptable … not at my age – but i appreciate the sentiment … not that it may not come to that … but that is just a couple steps up from living under a bridge and i’m not sure that will be acceptable – but who knows.
@persephone – yes, thanks, yes … and no, respectively 😉
tightrope dawg
Dawg old timer.
This could not happen to a person less deserving of such a fate.
I don’t believe in karma. I don’t believe in a controlling force. I just believe in cause and effect. So I find it hard to believe, give the ‘effect’ you’ve had, that you would be left high and dry.
It will all be ok.
Thinking of you
Dammit Dawg, if only I was living elsewhere under my own terms. I’d have no objection to you using my place as a crash pad for awhile.
Surely you must have old friends or family, anyone, who’d let you stay with them for a few weeks while you try to get everything sorted? Your age shouldn’t matter… What I’m saying is, there must be someone who cares and who’d put you up in favour of the other grim alternative. It might be a bit humiliating for you, but it’d be better than being on the streets, and well, we certainly care around here – we don’t want to see you go so soon. 🙁
I know all about Karma. I’ve been battling it since 2004 and it all started when Rooster Booster suffered a shock defeat in the Champion Hurdle. It’s times like these you find out your friends. Bad things happen to good people all the time. Good Karma can only balance things out in a good environment. If you’re surrounded by badness then Karma can’t operate under those conditions.
That fucking sucks Dawg!! I’m sorry, and I hope things turn out ok. I know that if anyone ever did that to me I’d burn them to ash.
Good luck!
Harsh.
My high school football coach(es) used to drill this into us:
“Luck is when preparation meets opportunity.” (paraphrased)
So… “Good Luck” dude.
Update: A certain person in my life actually stepped up and offered me a place to stay for me and the dogs … and to even store my stuff … it’s not a perfect situation and i’m not sure how stable the offer is … but as it stands i’m viewing it as a temporary reprieve – i an in the middle of relocating … we’ll see if the situation stabilizes into a firmer longer term solution … but for now it is workable 🙂
the amazing part of this offer was i was just relaying my situation as a matter of fact … i in no way asked or expected any type of offer of help
ramblin’ dawg
This is great! 🙂 I hope everything will work out well for you.
