Subject: RE: BS: Waaaah! I need to rant - 2
Well, since she "so generously" let me not pay rent this month, there's not much I can do. (And I have the feeling she did that on purpose, which of course, isn't generous at all... but she's unlikely to see that.)

I'd have left on the 13th if I had a place to go. It's that simple. I'm only staying because I have a dental appointment on June 4th, and I'm going to that because I have three temporary fillings that need to be dealt with BEFORE I go out of the country. Otherwise I'd be going to Susan's a lot sooner.

Apparently a friend called her and she agreed to make it easier on me while I remain here... however, there has been no action on that, and if the friend hadn't told me, I wouldn't have known about it.

So, it's just a contest of endurance right now.

I really do not know what I can do, I'm not paying rent, I have not enough money to go to a motel, I have no where else to go unless I miss the dental thing.

You know, some older people just get stuck in the authority position, and don't know how to turn it off, and if you try to relate to them as an equal, they just can't take it, they think you're challenging their authority when all you're saying is that you're a human being who has rights too.

How the heck do you deal with that?
