Buy a lipstick and change a life……


My name is Linni and on the surface if you saw me in a coffee shop or in the queue at the supermarket you would think we are alike, I’m a mum and a grandmother – but I’m not like you I’m homeless and living day by day with my life in suitcases hoping that some kind soul pays my motel room bill or lends me a sofa to sleep on.

You can read how my life turned on a dime in this blog but before all this happened I used to sell Mary Kay cosmetics and I need to rebuild my life so instead of asking for hand outs or pity can you spare me the price of your daily Starbuck $3.95 unless you have the one with all the bits at $5.00 I could be then selling Mary Kay.

I need $50.00 to get my account started and then I can sell my way out of this situation I can change my life and that of my children- due to very bad health I can’t get a normal job so I am trying to work my way out of this desperate situation.

That $50.00 can give me and my children long term security and give me a way of earning my living and a lipstick will put a smile on everyone's face.

House Sitting

So, my daughter and I are house setting for a friend of ours, and you know, I had to empty out the hotel room so that we could come here! TOO MUCH WORK!!! i so badly want a place to call my own! 


 So my mind is thinking to Tuesday, and how I need to go to the neurologist, and how I need to find a place to stay.. 
when you are homeless, your mind always ends up back to thinking of where you will be staying next!


 I try not to let worry and fear creep in.. it does all to easy though! 
I have applied for disability, was denied, and now have a lawyer to appeal that decision.. I dont want it forever, just for now, so i can get my health back! one of the places I applied for called me to set up an interview! so I set up an interview, and will look for work until the disability comes through! 
 it's something I have to do if I want to get a place to live, and a vehicle! keep me in your thoughts and prayers, Iappreciate it!
