Even though my Social Security Disability has been approved it will be several months till the check is in the mail so to speak. I got it on only the second appeal.

And where we were staying the lady is a diagnose paranoid schizophrenia. She has gone around the bend, and it is now too dangerous to stay there at night. So, we had a choice of some friends living room or sleep in the car at Wally World. We chose our friends. We will only be there 'til we are 100% packed and stored. And then we will head about 3-4 hours north of here to wait for the payments to start. Then we will figure what we can afford and where we go.

So obviously all building is on hold. Last Wednesday I did fly (twice) my little CL plane. Had issues with the dizzies, but it has a throttle via 2.4 rx so I landed. Had fun. So sorry guys. This is not the kind of post you want to read. But it is why the inactivity again. Eventually I will be able to work on this plane again. Be nice to fly it next. But I don't know. I don't have a clue about future living conditions. But ya know I have built and worked on the kitchen table with the wife's blessings, So build will happen again, Ken. Again my apologies for a downer post, but I thought some of you would like to know. AND WE ARE SAFE. We sure covet your prayers.

Ken, sorry to hear that you are on the run again. Good to see you have a good game plan and there is light at the end of the tunnel. Your well being is more important than the hobby. That will come in time.

Thanks George. Just sort of fell in to a backup.
Maybe a 2 or 3 months according to the lawyer.
Ken

Update on our plans
We were going to go to Leavenworth, Kansas for a soft landing at my wifes daughter. We can mare than easily pay our own freight wherever we end up at. And more than fairly reimbursed. And will in a few months get out own our own.

We are not welcome or wanted there.

Wife is understandably heart broken.

I told her We have fought and done every thing we can to stay out of California. But it is the only door that God has not closed in our face at near the last minute. So we are going. My rather elderly mother is in Modesto, CA. And never wanted us to leave Ca. Has asked us constantly to come live with her. So we have a soft landing pad there.

My wife asked could we make it on the money we have. My rough calcs at the time suggested we might make it. But I told her we are going on faith.
I then that evening was able to research it better and was more confident.
I since determined we will have money come in in the middle of our trip, and the moving van was a lot cheaper than I first thought.
I am certain we will have the funds for the trip.

My driving is going be a matter of prayer and gutting thru the pain that causes with out medicating it. With frequent stops, and walking the dog, short legs, and limited hours I can do it. I will do it. GOD BLESS THE WONDERFUL MAN THAT INVENTED CRUISE CONTROL. That is the thing that is going to make a whopping difference.

There is a 2 car garage there.

I hope sometime in November, December to resume building

We covet your prayers. We plan to leave Oct. 19 and stop half way between Houston, Tx and Clovis NM I have a good friend from the BHOTR site "George" there So that will make a good visit and night stop. That also starts with 2 short legs so I can test myself.

So I will pick the thread back up in a month or 2.
