Finding Self Louisiana (Part 6)

      I find myself here in Louisiana between NOLA & Baton Rouge. It's been a month since I've been here. It's definitely different, I don't live in the big city, rather a small everyone knows everyone's town. A car is absolutely needed to get around. Now what is my non driving ass supposed to do with that? I was good for the first two weeks but by week 3 I was starting to get beside myself. One thing I do know is I earned & paid for that 3wk Vacay. I saved $3,000 that year at FFA. It would've been more if I wasn't bothered beyond belief by my soon to be EX husband!        I was under so much stress dealing with that man! I didn't even realize how much until I was away from him. If I didn't explain it previously I'm in a bridge program to FFA.

Well if you have been following my survival story you would at least know that, they are the program that had a bed available when I had nowhere to go. They accepted me right away after about 25 calls surfing through the women's against abuse hotline for shelters. I came into their program on February 15th 2024. They gave me a drug test which I passed and they said Mary Jane was ok!  As long as they couldn't smel...
