Hanging at the new digs

No, not pictures or trinkety things that go on the walls, just me hanging out at the new digs.  It’s been a helluva struggle this last 3 weeks and yesterday was the 3 week anniversary of when we started making dump runs and working through the wreckage what was left behind in someone’s life.  Really!  For people to live in those conditions – and at least one of them had a job – their life was a wreck.  The bad neighbors were a huge benefit for me in the long run and I’m thankful they were what they were and hope their life improves on down the road somewhere…really far away from me and mine.  Now is definitely not the time for a deep dive into the darkness that mankind swims in most of the time so let’s drift on past that one.
