My coworker told me that someone on my street is losing their home. The street name is given but not the address. How incredibly sad!! To lose one's home..... Your feeling of safety and selfworth must take a huge hit. I don't know who it is but because I work and most women here don't. I don't spend a lot of time chit chatting with the neighbors since I don't have small children as most do.
Everyone I have met here in the last 15 years but one has been very very nice.
It is such a scary thought, there for the grace of God go you and I. All it really takes is a major illness or lay off and most people can only hang on to their homes for a year at best.
For all the paved gold roads in America many good people still fall in pot holes.
