I am back living in my truck

Sleeping in the back with my sleeping bag and issue roll out mat. Life is grand

 

Here comes the rain

 

Didnt you just say like yesterday you were Lorna Doom back when you were sleeping in your car?

 

I did. It was a van

 

Between Lorna doom and this name I had 4 different usernames...can’t remember them all thefutureawaits, Jason and something else. I lose track. None of my usernames overlap or post in the same thread. Don’t want to break forum rules. Btw where is that guy up in Canada who fixes cars? Used to be a regular and now he is gone? Hmmmmm

 

You’re being facetious right, because it doesn’t sound all that grand

 

One of Jane's brothers is a long distance truck driver. His truck puts many peoples houses to shame. On long trips (up to 3 weeks), he eats sleeps in it. The truck is even fitted with an inverter that powers a microwave, kettle and wide screen television in the living compartment. All it needs now is a shower. LOL.

He thoroughly enjoys the life, but it would not be for me.
Perhaps another important factor is that it is work, and he still has a wife and home to return to at the end of the trip.
Also, by saving money on the trips by not staying at hotels, he can afford to spend a week or more at home before he sets off again.

 

Very

 

Sounds fun

 

what is your mechanical problem?

 

Hell with that

 

My view this morning from my new house

 

Ive been wanting to. but more like road trip than permanent residence.

 

I dont know any Jehovah Witnesses to be homeless, as they are a tight community that looks out for each other here. No job, Jehovah will give you one, no place to sleep Jehovah will find give you one. Just head to the Kingdom Hall and share your needs..

 

being able to isn't as good as owning land and being able to build on it, or better yet being able to build and stay someplace without having to indenture yourself to if that were possible,
but having your truck and being able to camp in the back of it, as long as you've got an income for gas and maintainence, is waaaay many times better then being stuck in some city,
being over charged for rent in some poorly maintained unit in a less then wonderful part of town.

luckily i have pension that covers rent, but wouldn't cover rent and a vehicle at the same time, so i feel kind of stuck.
on the other paw, i am glad for hvac and wifi, but i do remember being able to explore back roads and growing up in the woods.

 

vanished under mysterious circumstances.

 

why are you living out of your truck?

 

I’ve been homeless before. Started working 10-12 hours a day for like 7 years.

 

Where is the rest of your body living?
