UGH!!! I hate being sick.....

Sorry that I have not written in a few days. I have been sick. This weather here is doom and gloom and make me depressed. I have still not found anyone to help with the deposit you and I still have no furniture. We are supposed to move in on the 1st and if we do not find any help with the deposit, my fiance's whole SSI check will go toward moving in. That means no food, no gas for the car, and no cell phone. Isn't there anyone or anyplace out there that will help. I am a full time student and my fiance is disabled and unable to work. I am looking for work but there is nothing out there right now.

Thanks to those who have given suggestions. Unfortunately, they have not worked out but I thank God for them.

Hope everyone has had a good day and I will post more tomorrow. I need to finish my homework that I have been neglecting since I have been sick.

God Bless all of you.....

Tired.......

Just wanted to write and say congrats to Katy and her mom on their new apartment. I hope that I am the next one to get an apartment. All I need is help with my deposit and no one seems to be able to help. My fiance is disabled and I am taking care of him as well as going to school full time. Like I stated in a previous post, we have the money for the rent but not enough for the rent and the deposit....Can anyone help us???

We could also use any kind of furniture that anyone may have just laying around and they are going to get rid of......

OMG........

Today was a really busy day. My fiance and I went looking for everything and anything that we could use in our new apartment. We found nothing. We got gift cards for x-mas and we could not find anything that we needed that fell within the balances on our gift cards. Just cant believe how much things are these days. I guess being homeless for so long, I lost track of how much house stuff actually costs.

Well thats all for tonight. Will write more tomorrow when I finish all my homework for school.
please keep us in your prayers.

Frustrated with life......

I decided to start a blog about my own homeless journey after reading Katy's blogs on http://destinationanywherebuthere.blogspot.com/ . I have followed her story through her blogs and on other websites that have helped her and her mom.

I have to believe that God puts people in your life for a reason. Maybe that is why after all this time and reading Katy's blogs that I have decided to write one of my own.

My name is Jennifer and I have been homeless off and on for the last 6 years. I have lived in a car, stayed under bridges, stayed in shelters and with friends. In September of 2008, I moved from San Jose, Ca to Los Banos, CA hoping to find a place. I stayed with some friends there and needless to say, that went bad. So then I went to living in my car.

The title for this blog is how I am feeling right now. Good news is that I have found an apartment in Merced, CA that I can afford. Bad news is that I need the deposit to move in. My income is only enough to make the rent every month and bills. I have called numerous places in the Merced area and none of them have the funds to help. I understand the economy is failing but the homeless population seems to be growing everyday and there seems to be no resources in place to help. There are resources in San Jose but they will not help me because I am not going to be living in their county.

That is why I started this blog. Maybe in writing my thoughts and my dilemnas, someplace or someone willbe willing to help. I am a full-time student and the only income that I have is my fiances SSI (He is disabled).

Thanks for listening to me ramble. I believe that God has good things in store for me and my family but it is frustrating having to wait. We are supposed to move in the 30th of this month. If we dont have the deposit, we lose the place. Please keep us in your prayers that something comes before then....
