Somewhat Settled

Well today I have finally obtained internet services. For the time being, I have basic necessities. I have been able to put food and other household items in my place and I have a blowup matress to sleep on. So its not bad for a new beginning. I moved in on Friday. Saturday morning, a FEMA representative called me and asked me if I could meet her at my old apartment on Sunday. I met her and when she arrived, she had on a cute outfit. Pretty tennis shoes, arms out, stomach out, no boots, no mask, no gloves, no goggles, nothing. The least I could do was offer her a mask. She took one look inside of my place and said, "I'm not going in there!" The smell alone was too much for her. I had to laugh because she had no idea what she was getting into. She said I should hear something from FEMA within seven to ten working days. I am hoping they will give me some money to replace my clothes and furniture. I understand they can not replace all of the other itmes that meant the world to me like my six hundred cd collection. I will just have to work hard in replacing as much as I can on my own. But believe me, I am not complaining. I am willing to take it as a loss and get the assistance that they can give me right now. I hope all is beginning to fall into place for others. Everyone is deserving of it. I have a meeting with my counselor tomorrow. There is something I want to discuss with her. I feel somewhat embarrassed about it. I will discuss it on the next post. Till then....
