I've got a place until Sunday hopefully, I'll have to figure out an alternative plan on Sundays at this place isn't open.
Went to dta today to try to sort things out there, getting medical forms filled out for a third time, hopefully it's the last time.
I'm just tired

Is there any way to send you some money? Good to hear you're trucking through, you'll get out of this situation soon hopefully. You're very brave for getting through this and you'll beecome a better man for it.
damn man, hopefully you're OK this winter. any chance on you finding a job? even if you work as a dishwasher or something, at least you can be indoors and will have an income which might help u get back on ur feet.

There are 3 issues there
1. My tremors, they are getting worse and limit what I can do, it's bad enough to come into place and tell them you are homeless and then they see you twitching and probably think you are tweaking from drugs or something...I really get it but it's still defeating.
2. I don't speak Spanish, any cashier greeter customer service to job out here kinda wants that due to the population, not all places mind the then again see #1
3. Once I have income I'll still have to wait, there are wait lists and well they are not short.
But I'm still looking and I'm also going to an emergency home placement place shortly to pray much beg and plead and hope they have something. If not it's going to be some cold bought because I'll be damned if I'm going back into shelters right now.
But I'll keep on keeping on, and hopefully something will turn around.

Hope you're informal and not sectioned, and things work out for you.
Yeah, been away from the forum a few days and wondering if you're safe and feeling better.
Especially with all the country wide weather issues recently.

I'll be leaving this place tomorrow, which it's very bittersweet...they have been super nice, a room of my own and really nice and supportive people...wish there were more places like this for folks in need. If anyone in western mass needs a spot for a short spell def check them out. http://www.westernmassrlc.org/afiya
Now comes the hard part, through some of the awesome folks here i almost have enough to get the fuck out outta dodge, as the saying goes. I'm going try to stay here until after Xmas so rates will be lower and making the move won't leave me totally broke.
This has been a hell of a ride, full of ups and downs...I do finally see some light at the end of the tunnel.
Thanks to everyone you have all kept me afloat during this whole mess, and that means the world to me

I'm so envious of your attitude and spirit, Dicer.
When I was broke, jobless, and without my own place I was a resentful son of a bitch and I'm sure I could have landed on my feet sooner had I adjusted my mentality.
I've not read this whole thread but let me know how I can pitch in to help.

Happy to hear things are working out.
The best things and changes always take time. As others have said your positive attitude despite circumstances is inspiring.
Please keep us updated.

Close...San Diego, they are the best place to go when homeless, and well it's not freezing lol.
The best of luck to you man, I'm happy to see that you've made such a positive turnaround in the face of all that's happened.
If you're ever down south I'd be glad to treat you to breakfast sometime.
Oh and since you're heading out to Cali, try and get up to Weed if you love the trees and being out nature like I do - there's some real beauty to be had around that way.

Autocorrect?
Also, Jesus, Dicer. Late to the thread but I'm glad that the exit strategy is going okay.

Sure Cali weed will help, lol.
This is a seat of my pants move, but I gotta make it.
Nah. Weed, CA is a real place lol. Drove through there on a cross country trip years ago, amazing red mud strata, pine trees, pretty peaceful area overall. And the grass there is great.
Yep, my mother grew up around there. There is another place not far called Happy Camp as well. I assume both places have been settled by hippies.
Best of luck on your way to finding shelter. If you're ever in Portland I can spot you a meal.
that sounds like a good plan. You aren't bound to just one location
do you already have or know a place to stay when you get there?
OP
OP
Nope, but they are supposed to be the best place to go for homeless folks in the US...so it's as good a place as any, and if all else fails I can border hop to Tijuana

I canceled waiting for the money to rotate back to me, I can rebook if they hurry up. Just slightly stressful
