Real Life Sucks
The past few months have been insanely stressful and hectic for me in real life. I appreciate all of the kind words of support and encouragement from those I have clued into my real life fiasco as of late. I would like to formaly apologize for my inconsistency with posting over the past few months here at Cold's Gold Factory. My goal for the new year of 2012 is to get back to a much more regular posting schedule for the blog, so I can continue to share gold making tips and tricks with my great readers. That goal may be pushed off until a month or two into the new year as the stress and issues are still not fixed and more continue to be piled on. I have been having a very hard time focusing on gold making posts with all of the drama, turmoil, and hardship I've been experiencing in the real world.
I split from the evil Ex (Good Riddance!), but for financial reasons was still living in our old apartment, which was in her name. All of the utilities bills were in her name as well. Even though she moved out, she did nothing short of make my life a living hell, while I stayed there through the end of the lease (since I had prepaid). Multiple times I came home to no power, no cable, or no internet even though I had paid the bills already.
I had terrible luck finding a new place for myself to move to for various reasons (pets, credit, lack of recent lease, etc.) As of just a couple of weeks ago, I was prepared to move into a cheap run down pay by the week hotel, but that meant I would have to give away my faithful companion, my pure seal-point Siamese, Berg'inyon. I searched and searched for a room to share or an apartment to stay in so that I could keep my cat, who would have been terribly heartbroken if I would have given him away. Siamese are more like familiars than they are pets. So I had to keep looking to find a place for me and my sidekick. I was even turned down for an apartment in the same damn complex I had been staying in and paying the rent for 3 years. Denied! It was looking grim.
I was lucky enough to finally find a 2 bedroom shared apartment with a roommate. And the landlord was willing to pull some tricks and get me into the apartment approved as a roommate. See I was taking over 1 room from 1 of the current roommates who was returning home to care for an ill parent and the other roommate was staying. We would be splitting bills and rent in half, which was affordable for me. Turns out a day after moving in, the roommate has been evicted for not paying his parking fees and I'm stuck with the entire $800 per month rent all on my shoulders. So now I am stuck in a new big 2 bedroom, I can't afford. I have no other option but to find another person to be a roommate to share rent and bills within the next couple of weeks.
No internet connection in my new place yet. No cable either. The ex stole my DvD player also. I am bored out of my mind with nothing to do but be on my phone and the Remote Auction House, but that can only go so far. I've tried working up posts, but have a hard time focusing. I'm trying to get a dvd player tonight and will try to get the internet going ASAP so I can resume normal activity and find a new roommate, but it may take a while. I still owe both the cable company and the electric company nice hefty chunks of money from an old apartment. Both of these were going on my bankruptcy that is half complete, but I am going to get stuck paying them off just to be able to get power and cable / internet in my new place.
So I met my 2 main goals of a) not being homeless and b) not losing my cat, but at what cost? I may have an apartment with no utilities here in a week or two once the old roommate cancels his accounts. Hopefully, I will be able to get the bills paid off and utilities turned on and make this extreme stress and drama go away.
I've been hitting some very low depths of depression mixed with some heavy anxiety as it seems everything is in turmoil as of late and I thought I had a solution, until the recent events that have be as the sole lease holder in the place I was moving in as a second roommate. It's too late to back out as I'm on the lease already and have no other options anyways. I'm really at a loss and have to find a fix for these problems.
I can continue to blog a bit from work after everyone else has left, but even that has been hard to do lately. I really want to get all of this drama straightened out so I can get back to living a normal life and being a more consistent blogger and gold community member.
Thanks for letting me get these issues off my chest. I really have no friends in the real world to talk to.
Please keep me in your thoughts and prayers as I try to hold it all together and stay positive.
