I was homeless at one stage. Had to vault a wall covered in glass to sleep in a family shed. Wall glass, a wall that had broken beer bottles built into cement. Was normal as a defense back then as built 60's onwards. Was broken beer bottles built in.
Dog kept trying to say hello,kept shushing her away.
Then waiting for family to leave so I could go to work a shift and sneak back in. No smart-phone, just a chair for sleep.
I was homeless. I lived in a pissed stained chair in a shed until I had enough for my own place as the last people I lived with went mental on drugs. I didn't.
Bought my own place with ... well lets just say sweat and tears ain't a lie. No mortage.
