MOVING AGAIN
I stayed almost three weeks with Penny’s parents, but I quickly became restless again. Although I had a very nice room at Larry and Virginia’s, it still wasn’t home. Just as my sister had been, Larry and Virginia were a great blessing to me when I stayed with them, and I’m sure I could have stayed as long as I wanted to. But I’m a private person and don’t like to feel that I’m putting people out. I also knew that I couldn’t stay with friends and relatives forever. Sooner or later, I would have to face life on my own.
I had talked about this when I was staying with Mary and Mike.
We’d discussed the possibility of my renting an apartment or a small house, but I didn’t think I could manage it. The problem wasn’t the expense involved. I was simply afraid to be alone. I didn’t think I could live in a place that had a hallway or an extra room where an intruder could hide. I needed to be able to see the whole place at once. I finally decided that an RV would be the best solution. There would be only one room, so I’d be able to see all of it at once, but it would still have a bed, a kitchen area, a bathroom—everything I needed.
My sister’s husband, Mike, found a thirty-foot RV on Craigslist for about seven thousand dollars. A friend put up half the money, and I paid the other half out of a special fund that had been set up for me.
We parked it behind Tommy and Helen’s house. They had a lot of extra space, so the RV wouldn’t be in the way, but I’d still have my own place. I’d also be living within walking distance of my own property. I could go there anytime I wanted without having to get in a car.
When I had moved my few belongings into my RV and sat by myself in my own place for the first time, I felt as if I’d taken one more step toward a normal life. I wasn’t all the way back, but I was closer. I lived only a few hundred yards from my property now.
I wanted to move back there someday, but I wasn’t ready.
Not yet.
