I found another motel room for Michael for another six days. I am not sure whether I am returning to Pofrtland in the near future. Most of my credit cards are maxed out and no new ones in sight. Got the car cleaned out and Crystal stuck around all day. I am not exactly sure why we were driving two cars all over hell and back.

I got Michael some groceries and a microwave. I said good by with tears in my eyes and he said it had been a pretty "shitty" visit I nodded my head. He said call him when I got half way home I sent him two messages.  I got him some hand warmers that should help in the freezer. I cashed his two checks and told him to budget it out for the days until the next one. He said he was taking a nap. We took Mikey home and Kate ask for child support money and was going to garnish his wages. He still has a a thing for her and it is sad to see. Mikey said he did not like me so only I clould hear and he more or less refused to hug me goodbye. So much for that. He seemed quite taken by Crystal. Michael said he had no girl friends just friends who were girls. He said he was disturbed several times during the night by Kate and someone pounding on the door.

Gary called and wanted me to give him the measurments for the door step. Not much else going on over there - except winter has come.

 No word from Nolan but then it is the first of the month.
