nothing much has happened since the last update. which really isn't a good thing. we were given untill tuesday for me to leave, and were told tuesday evening that the police were being called to come wednesday morning. happy birthday!!
the police never came. it started really getting to me today. it was the 6th day i had basically sat with my things packed, waiting for someone to come and take the next step and act on their threats of a forced evacuation. jane had no choice but to leave for a while and go to the art centre, so i sat here waiting in case the police or someone came, with her dog guarding the front gate and myself inside with a phone to call her should someone arrive. i got to the point where the excitement wore off and it just was getting tedious being stuck in the middle of someone elses argument that i had no control over. there is only so long you can sit around reading and waiting. i wasnt doing anything that i had come here to do, everyones time was being wasted just waiting for a result.
our last ditch attempt before i come home early is extreme and im not sure i am entirely comfortable with it, is that jane and i swap houses. she moves enough stuff to live from into my place (the one under dispute), and i move my things into hers, so that the anxiety and consequences of living 'illegally' in the current property are placed onto her, considering it is her problem and battle to fight, not mine. this will at least allow me to do some work at the centre and try and make some use of the time here. then we give it a few more days to see if anything changes in our favour. if nothing does change or should the police turn up and still go ahead with an eviction and allow the council to take ownership of the property, then we re-asses from there. not ideal but its the last hope.
today wasnt all bad, kinda had fun going out and helping change 2 tires and then tow a car back into the community from 20 min up the road (with all my valuables stashed in the car, not home), came back and made a fire... certainly memorable.. hopefully will update with something more positive soon!
