@tonys Ever since you told us not to sleep and watch a movie 🍿 I watch a movie and go to sleep. It might not be a lot of sleep, but better than none.
I had a big day. Being homeless and property settlement is a full time job. 🫤
What was this mass of cells that you piggybacked around, Lord Voldemort?
How did it get there? Why so big?
When did you get a farm?
I can’t handle so much as an ingrown hair.

Hello @Glisten Hey buddy. . . How are you. Mate, I'm sorry. I did not realize you where without a home. Had my share of the streets long ago and saw just how hard it was for a female in this predicament. A lady needs lockable privacy with her little personal treasures close around her..
In my day we had the skinheads hunting us for entertainment. Set fire me and my lady while we were
asleep on the street. I made it.. she didn't. Lot more to it, but perhaps another day. I kept my arm that was burnt close to my side n still through a cold harsh winter and the skin healed in a way that I lost mobility in that arm. Could tuck my guitar under my wing, but that was it. On my back was a huge flap of s skin and fatty tissue that just grew slowly over many years. Over time I became the street. Emptied a bottle while a sheerer freed up my arm one dark night, but the hump needed skilled hands
The things a man does to survive on the wet side of the windows. Ive written much about that in the past. Wrote those faces and ghosts right out of me. . . Well almost.
Then I put the city in the rear vision mirror, swapped bitumen for pot holes, and the street fight for fruit picking. Just lived out of a Valiant station wagon. Ugly car. . Ugly man..
Now , thing about autism for me was, I never went on cruises, gap years, holidays, rolling stones, concerts. I just picked fruit. ton after ton after ton. You ate it when you dinned out, . . fair chance I picked it. I was a gun picker. Pot n pan, op shop cloths, spare strings for my guitar and ate what others toss or the farmer fed us. Well as you can imagine. Do that for 40 plus years, 7 days a week, and you accumulate . Bought my first patch of land a few years ago, doctor found me that actually cared, Leaned to read n write, Help with my mind, finances, from people that stayed on the farm. Well I just rose and grew on the shoulders of good people.
You have to talk to people hey. But I did need a half a century of silence to build the castle that is me first. Left a lot out. I don't want to wear out my welcome mat.
Now . . I would love to hear what made you. . . you. Takes time, but we talk. . . we learn..
and just maybe. . . we heal.

@tonys 😮😱 That is so sad! I can’t even comprehend what happened to you. Horrible.
I’m not on a streets. I am relying on the kindness of friends. But I can’t continue staying in their apartment. They don’t live here. But it’s full of their stuff, so it still feels like I’m still living out of a suitcase.
Don’t get me wrong. I’m very grateful If they hadn’t offered me the apartment, my next step might have been in front of the Cleveland line express.
On 4 December, I will have been living from the West Coast to the East Coast and back for 12 months.
All because the ex-narcissist offered to fly me to my son’s place in QLD for Christmas 😬 5 days after he split up with me.
I think I was actually having a nervous breakdown.

Thanks @Glisten . Truth is, on the happiness scale, I'm a 9 out of 10. People who don't know any better, simply don't covet. Most want the Christmas present. I'm ok with the wrapper.
Its hard when you loose your perspective, and the mind plays its little tricks on you, and oh there are so many tricks. People grow eyes in the back of there heads and start looking behind, when all that matters is what's in front. The past wants to set us up for failure. Finding that one right person to walk you through the fog is key.. Accommodation. War is about what a person is prepared to endure, for some of us, we will be put to the test, We have to be able to sense the urgency of the unforeseen before it overwhelms us . The only business I was ever any good at as the business of "not spending" I refused to rent. It was a car seat or tent. $15000 a year. 40 years, interest. adds up.
And advising people that grew up in good homes with Christmas and mum makes school lunch, the brady bunch on TV. I can only offer an arm around the shoulder. For me to have security, The only way I knew is a total war of attrition. As for happiness. I was always happy.
But . . for the other 95% of people, they did it way easier than me and have a whole lot more.
Education, inheritance, luck, rich parents.. Wish I new what their secret was and if you ever find out, mate, please tell me.
The right answers will come from good people, a whole lot smarter than me I hope, and much better placed in the system. I'm the guy you talk to, when all those avenues are completely exhausted..
And that won't happen. Something goods in the mail for you so sleep, and just keep chipping at the system.. Sending you a peaceful dream, wrapping it as we speak
tones..

Good morning everyone,
I've been up early doing breathwork, meditation and spiritual energy practices. I'm waking up even earlier with the blood irradiation, just don't seem to need much sleep anymore, its been difficult adjusting to though. I was in a regular habit and things got thrown about a bit waking up in the middle of the night but my body is telling me I don't need much sleep. Glad to be back in the swing of things. Obviously just got to make that adjustment now and synchronise with an earlier routine. My body is ok with less sleep which is good. Detoxification does wonders. Have done just about every type of detoxification there is on the market now. Every orifice is clear lol. Typical Virgo ha ha.
Having problems with my rotten neighbours again. Not very nice or psychologically healthy people. I'm tiring of it to be honest. I'm mainly self educated and have done thousands of hours of personal development and feel I have to put up with this nuisance impinging on my sense of peace. They are not well adjusted people. I've tried getting police involved but that didn't work out. I'm just tired of their volatility, drinking and gossip and whatever else. I don't focus on them but you can't ignore the yelling. They obviously are pre-occupied with me for some reason. I am just sick of living next door to these criminals. My focus of attention is on other things but these people just won't stop. They started yelling at me last night. I'm not interested in their rubbish.
