Couple “shout-outs” Thanks to Xavier, Edouard, and Matthieu for your contributions. One person donated 10 cents. I’m not sure if it was meant as a joke or if it very well could have been the last 10 cents this person had. I would like to think the latter. Every little bit helps and I am ...
A bunch of “shout-outs” to do today. Thanks go out to Pascal, Marie-Aude, Richard, Martin, Cathy, and Francois. I think I have enough now to get 2 weeks worth of my medications. It’s a step in the right direction. There is also enough snow on the ground that I can probably go back to my ...
Still no contributors. It looks like I will be staying here for a while. I started an Indiegogo campaign today but I have my doubts that anyone will contribute through there. All I want out of life right now is to be out of this shelter, healthy, and escape from this mountain of debt it’s ...
No contributors, but lots of readers today. Depression is starting to take it’s toll on me. I found it very hard to write any code today. I couldn’t concentrate for long periods of time. I’m sure it has a lot to do with not having my medications. When your body is used to taking nine ...
Ok guys I really really really need your help now. It’s almost the end of the month. I’m out of my medications. I don’t have money for utilities. I’m close to the breaking point. I’ve been using my free time to do as much coding as possible. Much of my time lately has been spent ...
A “shout-out” goes to Ievgen for making a small donation. Yes every little bit helps. I spent today working on some new modules for Pligg 2. I usually have anywhere from 30 to 50 modules in different stages of development at any given time. Pligg 2 provides a little more flexibility with writing modules so ...
No donations or Christmas gifts today, so I have no “shout-outs” to make. I spent much of the day writing code and catching up on some news. I didn’t eat dinner because it didn’t look very appetizing to me. I couldn’t sleep at all last night. I finally fell asleep around 7:30 am this morning, ...
T’was the night before Christmas, and all through the shelter, my computer keys clicking and my hands are a swelter. The source code is glorious and working just right, In hopes that the someone would donate tonight. The hobos and bums are all past out in their beds, while visions of sobriety dance through their ...
I’ve now been here for 1 week. Time flies while you’re not having fun. No contributors again today, so no “shout-out”s to make. I’m not feeling very well. Not sure if I’m getting sick, or if Ive got a little extra nausea today from dinner, or it’s just depression kicking in.. Anyway I’m going to ...
I ventured outside today just long enough to realize how cold it was, and that I didn’t want to stay out in it for very long. So I went back into the shelter, to my little space. No contributors today, so no “shout-outs” to make. As promised I would post a picture of myself wearing ...
A “shout-out” to Heath for making a contribution today. I was beginning to think the donate button was broken. Please keep those donations rolling in. You guys are my only hope. We got some snow today but not like what was expected. I’m a little bummed out too because I was planing on there being ...
The wind is gusting at around 55mph. A severe winter snow storm is expected to hit here starting later on this afternoon and last until Sunday. Still no contributors, so no “shout-outs” today. I stopped digging the new sewer line trench until this storm passes. I expect to be here through Christmas. God only knows ...
Still no donations, so no shout-outs today. I got up early this morning to go over and dig some more. Then it dawned on me that I better check to see if I need any kind of permit. So I stopped off at the county building and found out that any digging where there is ...
I am suspending the regular daily posting format while I’m back at the damn homeless shelter to give you daily updates from here. There are new reward packages offered now. I spent most of yesterday trying to find out why my water was turned off and the reason will surprise you. I wasn’t behind on ...
I have posted the new rewards. Please jump over to that page and have a look. I’ve made it so the larger the donation, the bigger the reward. For those that are not aware, I’m back to living in a shelter again. I need your help. I don’t want to spend my Christmas here!
I tried to stay home as long as I could but with no running water, it has just become impossible. I would like to shout out to “Industry Grind” who made a small contribution yesterday. I have a bunch of emails to respond to. If I haven’t gotten back to you, I’m sorry. Things have ...
Well it’s starting again. As of last night I am now living with no running water. I’m sure electricity will also go shortly which means I’ll most likely spend Christmas in a shelter this year. People are reading my bog. They just aren’t contributing. So on with today’s Sunday Sale post. Today’s Sunday Sale post ...
