Nevada June BS Thread
We're supposed to be taking the kids (my stepson & his cousin that's visiting from CO) to Gold & Silver Pawn (from "Pawn Stars") & ATM (Acrylic Tank Manufacturing - From "Tanked") today. However, I have a baaaad feeling we got way too late of a start to hit Gold & Silver Pawn because I know there is a huge line every day. I really don't want to stand in a huge line in 101*F heat!
But, we'll see how it goes. I've been told that if you tell them you are local, you get put ahead of all the tourists, but that still doesn't mean there won't be a ton of locals in line. LOLI hope everyone has a great day today!

God is good! Not only did I get placed in a home today, but I may have a job also. I got a call before I went to the VA hospital and the lady told me she would put my name on the list for a home, but that their program is really geared toward Vets who are chronically homeless, and suffering from drug or alcohol abuse (here we go again). She said they meet every Wednesday to select the vets they will give vouchers too since they only get so many vouchers a month to give out.
One thing I have learned this past week is that the left hand does not know what the right hand is doing. So after hanging up from that call, I just thought, well, there is the bad news for today, let the meeting at the VA hospital be the good news.
So I went to the meeting, and he tells me he can put me in a home today. Then he stops, and thinks a moment, then starts staring at me. Then he asks me if I have ever had a problem with drugs or alcohol. I tell him no. He asks if I am looking for work, and I tell him yes. So then he says "Can you be a home manager?" And I told him at this point I can be anything you want, even a gardener if needed. He makes a call, and tells someone he has found someone to be a home manager. He says it does not pay well, and it pays in cash, but I will have free room and board. Mainly I would be making sure all the tenants abide by the rules, do their chores, and I would dole out the meds in the morning.
I told him I can do that. He says he will do the paperwork on Monday, so hopefully after that I will be in a home as a manager and not have to abide by the rule that says you have to be out of the house between 8:30am until 3pm. The home is not really geared for someone like me, but I am not complaining, I am so glad to not be sleeping in the Bronco, and it is only temporary until I get the house manager job. on top of that, the home I am in now is only about a mile south of my storage unit, and maybe 3 miles from my church. yay!

Here those pics I promised Bruce!

Dennis...Sweet looking ride!
Well it was family night last night...we went to the drive-in and saw the new Pixar movie Brave along with an older movie Avengers...got home about 2am since it is so near the Summer Solstice (more on that later!)
Couple of honey-do's on the list today and than a Summer Solstice blowout party at a buddy's house...booze, food, live band and I'm sure cops will show up at least once since he lives in a neighborhood...but everyone there isn't there to fight and rough house...the noise with over 100 people just is hard to control...you know!
I'll get back on a plane tomorrow morning!
Have a great day everyone!
