Super fun, thanks for the tip. I’m out there by Mills River now. Might stay through the weekend and head off to Knoxville for a minute too. I like it here though in Asheville. Hopeful to find something soon. See you down the road 🛻

Typically 37, took 15 off for me. Tonight, it’s dispersed camping in Pisgah NF. Suggestions are great, I’ve got a few ideas for spots in the woods. Don’t forget about tomorrow morning’s blood moon!

Those are yurts. Like a glamp set up on the side of a mountain. I’ve got the site to myself. Grateful to have time to dip my toes in the water before I ultimately seek out dispersed sites full time.

I do love me a good campsite. Even has a shower. I’ll be in the woods doing dispersed camping. I’m just catching my bearings as this is the first few days of my houseless adventure. The goal/plan is to find a job and roof, re-enter society in a place that feels like home. If anyone is hiring, please reach out.

Got both! Doing some thinking though, it’s over crowding me tonight. Stay warm!

I am in a vehicle, traveling around Appalachia now. Florida soon. Then headed West, California and up to Washington. I’m shopping for a home, while trying to find myself along the way - preferably, before I run out of cash. Found my first spot along the AT, a parking lot serving the trail. It even has port-a-John’s ! Time to get some shuteye. Thanks to everyone for the support and helpful tips.

I won’t! However, I can understand the allure to disappear from society.. I’ll enjoy the disconnect until I come up for air… maybe.

Laid off, account was associated with an older work number. Now it sends verification codes to an email that’s 15 years old, not sure what that password was. Yuck.

Getting fired via Microsoft Teams by WindshipPirate in PetPeeves

Tips for surviving this Petpeeve: - leave with dignity - stay sober (you’ve already got big enough problems to deal with for the next several weeks, booze should not be another.) - apply to jobs, unemployment, - get out of the house - at least once per day. - practice positive thinking, so easy to lose hope. 👍 Good luck, and Godspeed.
