I left my home in Portland , Oregon in October 2011 also left my husband of  26 years. There was nothing left for us. I went to stay with my daughter in Oklahoma and I stayed till January 2012 then went to stay with a friend in Chandler Arizona  it is already May and although I have looked and looked there is no jobs for a 57 year old woman. The skills i have are skills all young people have. So am competing on that level. I have tried fast food, walmart and telemarketing and others as well. . To no avail. There is no welfare help for a single adult under 60 all I can get is food stamps. I have had suggestion after suggestion thrown at me and tried each one. I think that i have tried about everything you can imagine except shacking up with a guy.  I would rather be homeless. My sons are all in college and just barely scraping by on their college money. My daughter has helped all she can and my friend cant help me anymore. So on June 4th, 2012. I become homeless. I decided to write a blog about the trials and errors I go through as an almost homeless person. Most people pass the buck instead of helping. I could get a mobile home for $500 and the rent is only 400 that is my goal to somehow get enough money to get me a mobile home.

I am putting a donate button on here in case someone would like to help. I am not asking for money but i do know there are people who like to help. This button is for them.  Thanks and Ill see you all tomorrow.
