always strikes me odd as the homeless have better phones than i do.
how do homeless have such nice cars as well and rifles ??? something is skewed wrong
i saw homeless and UNEMPLOYED in Austin begging for money while sitting in front of a home depot HELP wanted sign.
and my favorite in San Antonio a guy ran up to me at the river walk wanting money because his wife/girlfriend was pregnant ??
my grand daughter got an obama phone a few years ago when she was on the skids in florida...it never works right.
but she can text me to ask for money
and yes i spent thousands keeping her off the streets and in apartment, then i said enough is enough and funny i have not heard from her in months
breaks my heart
I am sorry for what you are going through. That is the sad stories that so many have. It is heart breaking when you have a wayward adult child or grandchild.
thanks
she is a source of me not sleeping very well. you can lead a horse to water , but having them drink from the trough is a whole nother enchilada
we have had her here and she did great, fixed her credit, bought a car had a great job...then the NDKRU$##*%#D boyfriend in fl convinced her we were not helping her. so it was it is
i half expect to get a call she is in jail, homeless or worse.
she is my kryptonite if she calls i would drop everything to go get her.
we had to do what i suspect many families end if doing, cut them off and pray they grow up or figure out its time to be an adult and use the brains they have to succeed
no body can do it for them, its like alcoholism ..only the person can decide its time for help
we laugh at how much money we just did not really know we were spending on her, until we stopped.
i could have bought 20 1911s last year
