Facing eviction
15 years ago
Look up. Look waaaay up! That there is Thompson, Manitoba, a mining town of 50,000 that is a pretty lousy place to live and a worse place to find work. That's where 
cannibalweasel and her 9 month old baby live. Or used to anyways, because on Sunday they will be on the street. Well hey, at least it's only going down to -20, gonna be a drag on Tuesday though when it's down to -27! So she has to have bus fare raised by Sunday or else.
"Yes, I am FLAT BROKE! Right now I'm selling EVERYTHING I own, Clothes, Jackets, Tables, Dishes, Computer, TV, Desks and even my 1 yr old Great Dane *sniffle* I am gonna miss him. Hopefully I can gather enough money for a ticket on the bus and enough for some food. (Unless someone is willing to pick me, My son and my BF up and drive us down ) . My BF has a place to stay, his EX roomie before I moved in with him is letting him and our son stay with him..but he hates furries so I am not welcomed. We have til Sunday to get ourselves organized or else we'll be on the street..and Thompson isn't the best place to be homeless with a baby."
When I talked to her on the phone tonight to get some details she told me that they had managed to scrape up $50 but were still about $200 short for the tickets. Now if this were at the end of the month I could handle this myself but as it stands I've got, amusingly enough, exactly one dollar in my bank account. *lol* I know we and those I know can do this though. I've told her that she and her son can stay here while her BF continues south to Winnipeg where he will look for a place and a job. I will have to be the conduit though for funds for the tickets as she doesn't have a PayPal account. From mine though I can shuttle things about and do a direct transfer to her bank account. Its Thursday, and this has to be done by Saturday, no time to lose!

If you haven't read my journal entry about using my photography for some good causes, now would be the time. A couple of weeks ago the owner of this gift shop and gallery in one of the most high rent retail areas of the city bought two of my prints... and told me she would be redoing the room she wanted them in a bit so it would go better with the blue in my picture! This Stuff Sells. Period. Use it! #

Thanks Atomicat for lettin me crash at your place!!
Seems that all the 1 bedroom and 2 bedroom apartments go really fast here in Winnipeg, and over 50% don't allow pets, Cost over $500 or don't like people on welfare..... damn..think it's gonna be a looong while before I can find a home for me and my family.
Spent the last 2 weeks calling places and asking people, but no luck.. if anyone knows anything/anyone who can help us..gimmie a message!
