I spent my first night back in the park last night and it rained. It rained from 2am to 10am. I got soaked. I made it to the library when they opened at 10am but by then my clothes were/are so wet and cold. And I don't own any shoes anymore, just sandals so my feet were real wet. I was outside till 5am when the local McDonalds opened. They aren't supposed to let you loiter but they let me stay for 2 hours. Then back out in the rain for 3 more hours till the library opened. I really don't know how I am going to survive 3 and a half more weeks of this. My clothes are wet and cold and I have no others to change into. Not that it would matter if I did since it's just going to rain more for 4 more days anyway, or so the forecast says. So that is my whine for the day. There really isn't anything that could have hurt me worse than rain.

(((Heretic)))~~

Geez ... you're in a real-life survivor situation. Our church, and many others, have a compassion fund and clothes/food bank to help with this very situation.

We pray for good weather everyday (we're farmers) so we'll put in a good word for your area too.

I'm really sorry to hear about this, Heretic :(

I hope you can get into a new place, and soon.

Many churches are open for another month before they start closing when the weather warms up. Are you close to a laundry mat where hopefully someone would find it in their heart to give you a few quarters to dry your clothes? There are also, at least in our town, thrift stores that give free clothes to the homeless. I will keep you in my prayers, that it all works out for you. Thank God for libraries and nice restaurants that let you stay for awhile. Many hugs.

I am sending so many prayers your way!!!!! I wish that I could help and it breaks my heart to hear what you are going through. I know there are lots of resources. Call the local DHS. they can hopefully help!!! Or a church. Any church. Go to them. They will find something.
