Stepenlite's Journal

I'm Mike the MS guy.  I'm also Mike the AA guy, and Mike the bi guy.

But I've got Mike the MS guy on my mind. 

It's important that I see to my living situation.  I'm in a place that I really can't manage since the MS came on.  My brother lived with me and helped a lot, but I'm on my own again.  And I can't drive.

So, the long and short (again, for those of you who have been following) is that it's time to down-size and time to move into a smaller place in the city.  I'm only out in West Seattle, but by bus downtown Seattle is a journey.  And if I'm getting clobbered by the MS, the trip is just too long.

Most of my friends are in the city.  None of them are out here.  I live out here because the rent is cheap.  I'll be spending $900+ for s studio in town.  Ouch.  But I need smaller anyway.  But 500sf is kind of tight.

The general plan is to move into the new place, and store everything until I know that this will work out.  It would to sell my stuff, only to have to replace it later.

Now it's about the AA training.  Make a decision, take action.

The depression is better.  Talking with my brother and the shrinks about this helps.  I'm a little bit jazzed again.  I'm going to upgrade to a olive smiley face.  And it's time to read the NA book.  If I'm going to have an NA home group, I'm going to have to sponsor, and it'd be a good idea to know the drill.
