How does a retired Air Force Colonel end up homeless?

SFC Baber.  I was told that the definition of homeless has changed.   Now,  they told me it would take a year in my car to qualify as homeless.   The new title would be "other living circumstances' or something to that effect.

In fact,  I had quite a row with a person you would think would try to help.   And he had some leeway and I feel jaded.  The first thing is the potential for a possible work program but they never called.   

Things happen for the best and one day I called the Senator.  This guy made sure my situation was rectified expediently and I am forever grateful for that.

Choices,  decisions whatever,  the bottom line here is not one of finding fault but finding a safe place to live.  One guy was actually leaning on my car outside a rest stop and I was sleeping.  When I woke up I was startled.  And what appeared to be a threatening moment.

I warned him not to ever do that to me.  I mentioned who I was to him but then decided to just let it go.   I wanted to deck him and see how the hood done him any good.

It is dangerous,  my family was afraid for me.  I tried to reassure them I can take care of myself.   I startle very easy and have seizures for God knows what,  and have an appointment for that next week.

So perhaps this Colonel may have met with some unfortunate and undefinable to us situation.   Stress can actually takes years off one's life and who am I to assume why.  Quite frankly,  I could care.

I want that man to be okay.   He is our brother in arms and that is all I need to know.
