LadyGrace

@FurryFace You live in a very expensive country. Rent is very cheap here. Super cheap than anywhere, but really nice.

If I were you I would take 10% of any money you have and give it to a Salvation bell ringer, or a christian mission, and then you will see what God can do!
Here is a miracle when something similar happened for me when I was younger.

"Miracle
To demonstrate how God has blessed me when I tithe: Here is a story for you. I was young and my husband left me and moved in with a girl down the street. I had two small kids and I cried out to God what can I do to be blessed.
And he showed me the verse in Malachi to tithe, so I gave 10% of my $400 I was making a month at the time. My rent was $550 so I did it on faith because I was going to be super short on rent.
Then a day or so before my rent was due, a lady knocked on my door and said. "I have a gift for you, $22.000 because you gave me a few rides last year to a nursing home." She said "My friend died and he gave me his money in his will, but I don't need it, because I am a millionaire." I could pay my rent. Praise God. He saved me as a little child and I believed in Jesus as Gods Son, but I never knew how important it is to give to God and put him first in everything."

FurryFace · 61-69, M

@Carazaa talk about awkward but i am pressed for time and cannot afford to give tithes at the present time , gotta hang on to the money i have left for a cash payment on 1st months rent

Carazaa · F

@FurryFace Did you read my miracle story above?

littlepuppywantanewlife · 31-35, M

That's very sad news. But i believe something better is going to come soon. Quit smoking. Never forget to pray.

FurryFace · 61-69, M

@littlepuppywantanewlife yeah i am talking with God almost full time , lol

Carazaa · F

Red cross can house you in an emergency.

FurryFace · 61-69, M

@Carazaa yeah it was only for 2 days at the Holiday inn , now i am at the Crisis center till friday

Carazaa · F

@FurryFace So sorry about your situation.😢

Beatbox34 · 31-35, M

I'm sorry you're dealing with this man. I hope you've found a place to move to so far.

FurryFace · 61-69, M

@Beatbox34 not yet still working on it

@FurryFace I'm wondering if you have looked at/for all the resources Furry. Emergency housing? I'm not sure where you live...might be very different than Boston. There are Independent Living Centers in almost every city...they help people find housing..(I did that for years)Senior Centers/Councils on Aging is a valuable resource.

HannahSky · F

Sounds like the building is unsafe. I really hope you insist they find you a new place before you have to leave.

FurryFace · 61-69, M

@HannahSky nope they are saying they do not have another apartment for me here

cherokeepatti · 61-69, F

Well that’s really bad news. It’s because of what happened yesterday isn’t it?

FurryFace · 61-69, M

@cherokeepatti yep

Doomflower · 36-40, M

Bad for your health to live in a building as opposed to where?

FurryFace · 61-69, M

@Doomflower i know eh

Adaydreambeliever · 56-60, F

It's probably even worse for your health to have no where to live!!

FurryFace · 61-69, M

@Adaydreambeliever yeah i am really stressed out

Iwillwait · M

Did you ever find housing?

FurryFace · 61-69, M

@Iwillwait not yet , still trying too

cherokeepatti · 61-69, F

What kind of help can you get? Homeless shelter or put on another apartment waiting list or what?

View 4 more replies »

FurryFace · 61-69, M

@Iwillwait yes but its temporary as long as i keep active looking for a place

cherokeepatti · 61-69, F

@FurryFace you can always smoke outside. If you are homeless then that’s what you’ll be doing anyway isn’t it?

FurryFace · 61-69, M

@cherokeepatti well lets hope it does not come to that

scabs · 51-55, T

I'm sorry dude. How come they cant put you up elsewhere until they fix the wiring and other things they should be up keeping?

FurryFace · 61-69, M

@scabs nah i think they are happy just to get rid of me and rerent the apartment out at a highrer rent price than i was paying at the time

SubstantialKick · 31-35, M

That sucks, man 😞. Hopefully you can find some temporary roof over your head until you can find a permanent one.

FurryFace · 61-69, M

@SubstantialKick yeah but my time is running out for this temp shelter

fernie2

@FurryFace Listen, I know there are resources to help you with this that you may not know about. Please Google "help for homeless seniors in Canada" where you will find more resources to help you. There is a long list of them all over Canada

mondayschild2 · F

Do you have senior living places there for retired and disabled?

@FurryFace you need a Social Worker to help you communicate with the folks who can help you. It's overwhelming

FurryFace · 61-69, M

@fernie2 social workers are overwhelmed too its a bad time of year for this , seriously

fernie2

@FurryFace Furry, are you aware that every suggestion we give you, trying to support and help you...you dismiss, like you're defeated. This is temporary, a bit scary,frustrating...but temporary. You must research where you can get some help. It's out there. I've been on both sides. Lived in my car for 7 months. I was blessed to HAVE a car. Then for years I helped the homeless find housing. And did I read correctly that if you can't smoke in a building you'll turn it down? Nah! Not every Social Workers Have ALWAYS been overworked....does not mean you can't get one or that they won't help you.🤗

bookerdana · M

So sorry man,I saw your youtube video..you can squat,it'll buy time

FurryFace · 61-69, M

@bookerdana cannot squat , this is Canada , and i am already out and they changed the locks before i even left

FreeSpirit1 · 51-55, F

Wow, that sucks. I hope you find another fast.

FurryFace · 61-69, M

@FreeSpirit1 not fast enough i am afraid

chelseamonroe3 · 26-30, F

deadgerbil · 22-25

FurryFace · 61-69, M

@deadgerbil you gatta see my second last video on here

Whyme · 46-50, M

FurryFace · 61-69, M

@Whyme uhhh not really things are freaking expensive not much around for less than 1200 $ a month , seriously

ProfessorPlum77 · 70-79, MVIP

[c=800000]Oh, my. [/c]

sassypants · 36-40, F

Can you see a Lawyer? It seems like they should have some financial responsibility toward the tenants. You upheld your part of the lease agreement.

cherokeepatti · 61-69, F

@sassypants they had reasons for eviction.

Mindful · 56-60, F

Those are serious reasons. You demand assistance from those saying you can’t … explain your reasons why you need help

Spoiledbrat · F

Did they give you a notice? Here we get a 30 day notice.

FurryFace · 61-69, M

@Spoiledbrat not really , they did not want me staying here because of Health concerns

Spoiledbrat · F

Wow that's crazy. I hope you find housing soon. @FurryFace

revenant · F

In the middle of winter😕

FurryFace · 61-69, M

@revenant yeah wonder-full like i am the Snow Queen from that Disney Movie

revenant · F

@FurryFace would you like some cigarettes also ? would be happy to send you some

mondayschild2 · F

Put yourself in assisted living

FurryFace · 61-69, M
