Bring back the long term listeners and make this site a lot easier to navagate.  Otherwise I'm parting ways.

Good News but No One Wants to Hear Me

...See more For the past eight years I've been sharing my bad news with others online or by telephone. Lost my wife, her parents, my step-daughter, my Social Secuity benefits, and my home/belongings. Now that I have very good news, that of getting my own apartment, no one wants to hear about it. My long term listener has vanished but I know he is bound to be busy with real world duties. No one else I know online is saying anything to me despite this good news. Through goverment housing I am getting this apartment. The only hold up is that they need to inspected it before I can move in. Not knowing when this will happen has been less than inspiring for me. By that I me I can't get motivated to pack up my belongings while I live with my parents to be ready for the move. Part of what is holding me back is that 90% of what I have is going in the trash. It's not much but I am planning are starting over with a blank slate. What else is holding me back in part is that I'm still recovering from ankle replacement surgery (in June) plus I have been told I have type two diabetes. This means I'm on too many medications that keep me sleep all of the time. I've gone off some of the medication that most of my doctors know about as I was so sleepy that getting out of be was almost impossible. So these are my words for how I am doing today. Positive replies appreciated.

...See more As an adult almost 60 I am in need of living someplace on my own. I've lived with my idiot parents for the past 7 years due to Social Security "losing" my medical records and stop paying my benefits. This has somewhat been corrected and I'll have the money to move away next month. My issue is with HUD and whoever that can explain where I can move to and when. I've found a HUD link to councelors who have never responded to my calls/emails. I'm not picky. I want to live someplace away from where I currently live. It's my understanding that in order to get housing assistance that I need to apply with each county in my state in hopes of finding someplace. With 254 counties in my state this is too much for me. With the waiting lists of a number of years I don't see this helping me in the near future anyway.

...See more I'm getting the idea that "Long Term" means long enough for them to get tired of hearing me whine about my life as they seem to dissapear or remain silent after time. Yes, they have a life outside of chatting with me. I appreciate the help they have been it's just that I need a reminder now and then that I am not in a dream world and others out there will respond to what I say.
