Absolutely do not use baking soda in place of toothpaste. You'll end up destroying your teeth and spending a fortune trying to restore the enamel.

Some of the odd jobs will shock you! In the country at that time most people did not have indoor plumbing. For a quarter, a man would clean out an outhouse. This was done at night. Men took a lantern, a wheelbarrow and a shovel, cleaned out the outhouise, and buried it at another location.I know this as told by my father.He did this as did my 2 uncles.Think about it - it took hours. But it was money. There was no welfare, no food stamps - everyone was on their own. Every penny counted. Nowadays, people can't imagine how hard that life was.

Taking on a roommate sounds great, but really, where I'm living, it really doesn't sound great at all.
When I was in my twenties and had my first apartment,
I was trying to be a Christian the best I could. I was sort of on both sides of the street but my home in my heart then was with God.
I remembered the story of the good Samaritan in the Bible.
There was a guy in my neighborhood then that gave me a hard luck story about he didn't have no place to go, and his sister supposedly kicked him out.
I felt sorry for his situation and I then allowed him to move in with me then.
I didn't have really any experience with this world or the bullshit this world does then.
He didn't pay any rent plus he ate all my food up without offering to replace any. Plus he talked my nieve self then to let one of his friends move in also which made my life even that much worse.
I was so desperate to make friends and also somehow do the godly thing as strange as it sounds.
To make a long story shorter,
I lost my first apartment,
I had to spend a night in jail for a noise complaint, and when I got out the next day,
They were in my apartment rapping up my things to steal them.
What I learned then is that that Bible stuff only gets you hurt, and never trust anyone to that extent ever again.
I could use the company if it's good company,
But over my short 50 years of existing my trust has basically been abused and destroyed by this world and the church.
It's rough, being forced to live the rest of my days here on this earth isolated and alone.
What seems to be my means of protection has also turned into my own prison. Hmm...
