Long Beach Tales

|
I am moving to Long Beach and all hurdles except one have been jumped. I am waiting on a reply about signing a lease long distance. 

I went out on a disability a while ago. Since then some things have gotten better and a few are now getting worse. I think it is nothing I cannot overcome. While I am not silly enough or young enough to imagine my own invincibility, I am pretty sure about my abilities to overcome obstacles that have driven others into the ground---into an early death. Being a survivor has always been in my background.

Back to the disability. This has allowed me a little assistance from a few non-profit and governmental agencies. Along with assistance comes bureaucracy. The last few months I have been jumping through hoops while pushing others to do what is in their job descriptions. This has been stressful yet entertaining. I have a few stories to tell after it is all over and my making this post is my way of making a note to myself.

When I get to Long beach (one more hoop to jump with one more bureaucratic snafu to untangle) I will get back online as soon as I can. ?I may be offline for a while and when that happens the result will be other issues coming to the forefront. I do not want to forget what it took to make this thing happen. I hope sharing it later will help one other person and maybe provide a laugh or two to others who have went up against the system.
