in response to totally stressed...Hi
I thought everyplace government would be closed today and it is. Sorry for all you went through getting there to find that out. Yes it would be great for social workers to be there too on days we need them. I hope your day is good too. I debating off from the net if can't find work to do and have no fairy tales to tale. Good luck at the doctors and I better eat or my back will kill me from not eating trip. I have TV and will turn on but not much on it.

in response to Starshine...hi back at ya starshine. didnt see your post until now[9:30a.m./1-17]. was in bed by 7:00 last night. up at 4:00 this a.m. to go back to file for heap. was there at 5:00. first in line. i thought. they are closed. its MLK day. oh brother. maybe tomorrow again. never knowing how my day with my brain will go. its hard to plan and execute alot of times. our problems dont stop for a holiday. social service places shouldnt take one day off. there are too many in need. weekends would do a great more also. sorry if there are any social workers reading this. everyone needs thier own time and space. but this is a very bad time for all. needing help doesnt take a vacation or a personal day. but ill stop there. as for tales of good fortune starshine? i dont think we need to leave the fairy out in the cold. you go for it. at least possibly some faces would be wearing a smile to see something positive for a change. the truth stinks more then the news sometimes. i dont watch any longer. its all bad. nice to hear from you as always. hope your day is sweet. going to take a nap. doctors appt. at 2:00p.m.. tired from this a.m.s trip into the freezer.[for nothing][i should have known better. today was my fault completely]. C-ya back here later.
in response to totally stressed...Hello and I feel the same way. I still say it you hound your reps etc for change. It is not getting better. I am trying to find work on craigslist and gosh to feed me and things it is hard then for ones who have families worse. I wish things were easier so hit your reps and gov and the White House. I feel for everyone to and it makes me cry that here places are closed due to weather, seniors having a hard time and everyone is. the ones that aren't I guess they don't care. I am trying to stay positive and If I get tired go lay down or eat popcorn.
Take care and have a good night. I hope things become better. I still have to cancel cable and didn't get through to them yet. Well I am being paged no cell phone but relatives on facebook. I can't afford to buy a steak or eat out. I will try to think of tales of good fortune. Am I allowed to make one up like a fairytale??
hugs to you and family

in response to Starshine...we are trully in bad times for all. the county heap agency here is so over-run its amazing. line starts at about 5:30[cold as h--l too]. friday they could only take 4 people. lots of mad seekers. me also. try again tommorow a.m.. my, i wish things were easier. never needing help of this nature before, makes it just that much harder to tolerate. you dont see the other side of the bag, until youre in it. i feel for all of us. things will only get worse in my estimate. share your stories of good fortune. theyre becoming more and more scarce. oh to read something positive. nice. goodnight starshine, and evryone else. bedtime for oswald and i. 4:30a.m. is staring at us here. i like 6:00 much better.
in response to totally stressed...Very well put totally stressed and I could not have said it better!!
And didn't even see this post yet till I read your reply. Well written!!!
I think many come for money but most of us are struggling too. I wish their were more people that have money than not so we could all help each other more but we do our best in giving information to help others out..
Have a great day.

fresh04. schmidty is full of info. check out his posts. starshine is another good source. many more are here too. browse and become enlightened. hope they dont mind the plug. if so? sorry for that.
what youre missing is the real point of this site. people helping people. with information that is. most everyone here is in the same boat as evryone else, OR worse. the people here are kind, understanding individuals doing theyre best to point you in the right direction. no one here that im aware of are well to do philanthropists, with donating theyre hard earned money in mind. you can obtain information here. you can spill your guts. complain. vent your frustrations. share your information, and disgusts. make new friends. communicate with others, who have overcome much more than you or i, or are seeing no more light at the end of the tunnel than the rest of us. this is not the place to seek monetary donations. thou youll be gladly given information on areas of that concern. were all just concerned friends, trying to help one another. believe me. i know. i thought this was a beggars site myself. was frustrated and angry, at first. why is nobody helping, monetarily? ive begged evrywhere. i too, am in great financial distress. just like millions and millions of others. ive learned here to be very thankfull for what i DO have. the money thing? doesnt happen for many. yet you have your shot. go for it. thou dont be upset with the people of aidpage. they are all here to listen, guide, and vent to be able to breath a little. good place. absolutely the best people. no scams or b.s.. youll like being here. but only if youre here for more than money. i learned that the beggares sites are more problem than theyre worth. my advice, is to stay away from them. take it or leave it. try to enjoy your day.
