<div style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10.909090995788574px; line-height: 16px; padding: 0px;">
Some of you already know this. I am going to tell the rest of you. My life as a homeless advocate will continue, but I've had a major emergency that included a move, and am looking for another job. I became homeless again. </div>
<div style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10.909090995788574px; line-height: 16px; padding: 0px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10.909090995788574px; line-height: 16px; padding: 0px;">
On the one year anniversary of my mother's death, her worst fear for me came true. It's really not so bad. Yes, I'm technically "homeless again" My first goal was not to tell anyone. I actually thought I was going to be sleeping on the streets but I managed to get a bed at the Salvation Army on Luckie Street. And make enough hours to become a paying customer. At $10 a night, living right in the middle of Downtown Atlanta, is actually pretty nice. I didn't want too many people to know because I thought my boss would freak. He paid our rent when my mother and I were homeless. I had to pay him back, but he's looked out for me so much at times I think of him as an uncle or adoptive big brother. Actually, when he found out where I was, his reaction was "I'm relieved you are out of that hotel," Then he asked, "Are you safe, what about your belongings, do you have bathroom privacy, and do you have a kitchen?" I answered, "Yes, they are in storage, yes, and they feed us twice a day," </div>
<div style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10.909090995788574px; line-height: 16px; padding: 0px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10.909090995788574px; line-height: 16px; padding: 0px;">
What happened was that my boss had to cut hours for many of his employees. And though I've been putting in applications and trying to find another job, it's hard. I am leaning on jewelry sales to cover Marta Card costs, coffee at shops where I can get free Wifi, and supplies to make more jewelry. I don't have to worry about food. I've been eating at work, and the shelter provides two meals. My boss has even told me that if I find something better, not to let him hold me back. He knows I am looking and is very supportive. </div>
<div style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10.909090995788574px; line-height: 16px; padding: 0px;">

I have met so many people in the short span of an almost month. I've met a Nonprofit Organization Executive who has fallen on hard times. I've met a recovering narcotics addict who prostitutes just so she can get food or clothes her size. I've met a young stud who just made the switch from being gay to accepting the fact that she's in love with a man and will be having his baby. I've met a soon to be mother who just moved out of the shelter and into a home in Marietta, with a new job as well. I've met a Wiccan who loves gemstones as much as I do. We've exchanged books, learned about gemstones, and encourage one another. There was one girl who gave me hair gel when I ran out. Another one bought the Herkimer Diamond in 14K Gold and a pair of gold earrings that I made. One lady works at the Waffle House and she's devout. She prays like a preacher would--on and on and on. Her love for God is vast and she makes sure that everyone knows it. </div>
<div style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10.909090995788574px; line-height: 16px; padding: 0px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10.909090995788574px; line-height: 16px; padding: 0px;">
I was living at the Savannah Suites on Pine Street. It's right across from the Metro Atlanta Task Force for the Homeless. Everyone in the shelter with me agrees that place is a last resort type of place that one would go to ONLY if it were raining. In other words, many of the ladies I share a dorm with would prefer sleeping on the sidewalk in a Midtown park to staying at task force. I don't blame them. I've lived across the street from them for four years and had to literally fight at times just to go to work. </div>
<div style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10.909090995788574px; line-height: 16px; padding: 0px;">

I didn't expect the relief of not having to fight, duck and dodge the grown men on that corner until I became homeless again. I get up, go to Centennial Park, meditate and watch the sun rise every morning. If it's raining, I hang out at the CNN center until I have to go to work. </div>
<div style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10.909090995788574px; line-height: 16px; padding: 0px;">

As for Art4TheHomeless, I had to put my work in the nonprofit to the side for now. Hart is the CEO and a good friend. I won't be able to work on the Art4TH Zine for a while until I am able to get another job that will enable me to save money. My sole focus at this time is on myself. I'll see the nonprofit through World Homeless Action Day, will still be on as Vice President, but the nonstop work on the website, webzine, and promotions will be limited. There's no wifi at the shelter. And i need to mainly focus on me, selling my jewelry, and doing a bit more than surviving. My goal is to thrive and bring as many people up with me as I can. </div>
<div style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10.909090995788574px; line-height: 16px; padding: 0px;">

For those of you who I told that I was moving in with a friend, I lied. I didn't want you to worry about me and I didn't want pity either. I'm tired of struggling so I reached out for help and got it. For lying to you, I apologize. Being homeless is one of those things that's hard to tell someone. </div>
<div style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10.909090995788574px; line-height: 16px; padding: 0px;">

When you tell people you are homeless, they look at you differently, as if you are a criminal or a bug. I don't want any of my friends to see me in that light. I've done no crime and can't stand bugs. I didn't want to tell anyone because I don't want to be judged or looked down upon. </div>
<div style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10.909090995788574px; line-height: 16px; padding: 0px;">

Many homeless advocates have been homeless before. It's why they became advocates. And being in my situation now, has inspired me to work harder at being an advocate. I have a voice. I am visible because I choose to be. I'm not on the corner begging, chances are I'm serving YOU at my job. And now that I'm paying rent, I'm techincally no longer homeless :) </div>
<div style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10.909090995788574px; line-height: 16px; padding: 0px;">

My goal is to save money. I eventually want to pay back the bank (overdrafted $500 to pay rent at the Sav. Suites) but until then I'm saving the money on my prepaid debit card. </div>

Tigers eye is a protective stone that protects against ill wishes and curses. It shows the correct use of power and brings clarity of intention. <br/>

<br/>
Tigers eye anchors change into the physical body while showing you how to recognize both your needs and those of other people. It shows you what's wishful thinking and what you really need. <br/>

Sugilite represents love and wisdom. It opens up all the chairs to the flow of love and align them. It lovingly protects the soul from all shocks, trauma, and disappointments. <br/>

Sugilite is great for working with groups as it eliminates hostility, and encourages loving communication.<br/>

So much has happened with my mother again--she was back in the hospital for almost three weeks. We found out she has a blood clot in the tummy, needs a feeding tube, and that her diabetes has advanced to affect her GI tract--in other words she has problems digesting some foods now--which is why we have the feeding tube. <br /><br />I do have more designs coming soon but my boss has me down for more hours to work so I will be very busy--but will try to do something and blog at least once a week. <br /><br />Life is hectic as always but I'm goin with the flow.Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9014062708112761118.post-76478682818562011432011-02-09T14:35:00.003-05:002011-02-09T14:52:56.095-05:00Herkimer Diamond with Carbon Inclusion wrapped in 14K Gold<iframe src="http://www.facebook.com/plugins/like.php?href=http%3A%2F%2Fladiejayesdesigns.blogspot.com%2F2011%2F02%2Fherkimer-diamond-with-carbon-inclusion.html&layout=standard&show_faces=true&width=450&action=like&colorscheme=light&height=80" scrolling="no" frameborder="0" style="border:none; overflow:hidden; width:450px; height:80px;" allowTransparency="true"></iframe><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiMnri8hlnW0IrOMU_kIw1zDjFRCBHvdgcsNUzpZqi15AfG7BlH4dzt_dSuBAtgkbJZFgtMFbY8k_iID8NJIZVe7UeCuxrG3BXiexTbrE_2lzxnIl_znItwWNer5veWHiYUmjL5Qsq8pp_u/s1600/02091419.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 297px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiMnri8hlnW0IrOMU_kIw1zDjFRCBHvdgcsNUzpZqi15AfG7BlH4dzt_dSuBAtgkbJZFgtMFbY8k_iID8NJIZVe7UeCuxrG3BXiexTbrE_2lzxnIl_znItwWNer5veWHiYUmjL5Qsq8pp_u/s400/02091419.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5571776109306480978" /></a><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 16px; "><div style="text-align: center;">This is a really cool piece of Herkimer Diamond--it has a beautiful piece of carbon inside it kind of like a shadow.

Do not use with water--or if you do, please wear gloves. Water that has touched Malachite is TOXIC, but Malachite itself can be safely worn as jewelry. Do not use salt--it will damage the stone.<br /><br />Malachite amplifies both positive and negative energies and grounds both into the planet. Malachite protects against radiation and opens the heart to unconditional love.

We have had a generous donor donate the rest of the money needed to file 501c3 for Art4TH.<br /><br />Also, I was selling to raise money for The Homeless Project. Each organization received 20% of all my sales. Well, due to me needing money and not selling, Both Art4TH and THP will receive 5% of each sale and I have added another homeless organization: The Metro Atlanta Task Force for the Homeless.<br /><br />I live right across the street from them and have been meaning to do more but haven't had the chance to. Anyway, I know 5% isn't much but it's all I can do at the moment.<br /><br />Also, until recently, I was covering the shipping on all jewelry sales. That has also changed. It will cost $2.00 to ship in the US and $3.00 Internationally. But this is for a good cause and I am sure you guys will LOVE to see some of my newest stuff!
