New plans for my bedroom I live in most of the time.

 Tranform the closet into the room for a twin xl rollaway bed. Only about 30" will stick out from the closet. Perfect for me to stand on the get things out of the big closet cubby hole above where the clothes rack are that are on metal rods and pull out. I can use the metal rods to hold exercise bands while in bed and hang and stretch all I want...unlike what I have now. I have to lay on the floor to use this huge resistance band. 

When the mattress is in the closet under the clothes rods I can lay on the bed and fall and stretch and move all I want without worry of getting hurt. 

I will get a rolling wardrobe rack for all my clothes and put it against the east wall in my bedroom, right in the spot he said is best to put anything that is heavy.

This way I can move the bed and the clothes rack around whenever I want to. 

I have rearranged my room a gazillion times in the last few years and each time it seems to be right and gets better. It will be even better like this. It will open up the middle of the bedroom so I can use exercise mats and comforters and pads and pillows and dance and exercise on these. 

In my bedroom are 2 desks. One is an old wooden desk, the other is a long plastic table about the size of the desk. I have several laptops, a tablet, cell phone, tablet pad holder, 10 key adding machine I just bought new not along ago. I have a small postage scale, an inkjet printer and a larger scale for weighing heavier items. I have a wooden cabinet that holds my microwave. Plates, bowls and the popcorn maker is in the bottom of the cabinet. 

I have a square plastic table against the wall between the bathroom and the closet. I use it now for my coffee maker, hot pot and two plastic bins that hold silverware.

Above the clothes closet and on some of the shelves in the master bathroom inside this bedroom I have food, coffee, tea, electric hot plate, instant pot, towels, wash cloths, paper towels, my moms shoebox of papers and pictures stored.

There is a cutout in the wall between the bath and closet with two shelves that hold spices, candles and miscellaneous items.

I have a 9 drawer metal frame cloth dresser I purchased at Walmart a few months ago. On top of it is my 32" fire tv I bought cheap 79 dollars at Best Buy last year. 

A stack of  3 ring binders and paper notebooks containing my journals are in here. All of my important documents birth certificates, marriage licenses, 2 divorce decrees, etcetera are in dark blue folders on top of my desk.

A black portfolio holds in diploma from 1985 when I graduated from Bryan Institute in Overland Park, Kansas with a degree in computer programming and accounting. Other important items are in the portfolio.

The bathroom drawers and cabinets are full. 

One day I will have all of my things together in one room and when I leave it will be so much easier to pack up everything in one small truck and make one trip. 

I have emeril pots and pans downstairs that were a gift from my son and daughter in law many years ago. I have several vacuum cleaners. A couple of plastic totes of pictures, a tote with a small sewing machine and a slide viewer, two sewing boxes are also mine.

A small lamp I bought cheap at Walmart. A wooden jewelry box filled with obituaries and trinkets throughout the years of my life. 

The microwave is his. He bought it for 20 bucks on craigslist years ago. He can have it. I will leave it lying on the floor in the bedroom when I leave here.

I need my own place. I need to disappear completely, get a passport so I can travel and be gone for at least 6 months away from here, away from him. 

He needs to have me gone, be rid of me, live without me for an extended period of time or maybe forever. 

I could file for divorce and later file for social security as a divorced woman and collect benefits on his account then I would probably get the same retirements benefits he gets which is double what I get which is now 544 a month. His is 1089.

I need peace for the rest of my life. I need it now.

Learned about living with others, marriage, work, solo, peace, happiness.

 Learned. Living or working with anyone ends up being sheer hell. Marriage is not about love. It is about ownership, power struggles, fights...
