I am not sure what I’m doing, but hope it turns out well…
I have to move out of this shelter by June 1st.
The other shelters in this city are dangerous. Rife with drug use and crime. Just this week there was a multiple victim stabbing at one of them.

Elaine and I picked her up today to celebrate. A trip to Costco for an Easter dress and iced cream cone and an afternoon of cuddles on the couch with her dad!

For about two months now, Elaine and I have been hosting "dysfunctional family dinner".
Armand and Kris, friends I made at the shelter who have found permanent housing, come over each Saturday or Sunday evening and the four of us eat together and hang out. It's really nice

Her mother keeps making up excuses to prevent this.
I know this is intentional. Trying to manipulate a five year old.

In the meantime...
I'm all out of money. And still homeless.
Here's my PayPal link if you'd like to help for a bus pass and other essentials.

I met with the intake coordinator at the YMCA yesterday.
We spoke a bit about the facilities and supports available and she got to know me a little.
And then told me that I will be getting a room there!!
I'm meeting my housing worker later today to get the paperwork started!
