Skid Row On Sunday 11/17/13

Man, I am at a lost for words.  I just found out that the shelter called Pathways is causing sleep deprivation of their clients.  They pick them up at 4pm from downtown take them to the shelter.....then dinner...bed ....bed count- woke up to sign paper...then woke again at 4am to leave........


No lockers to put your meds and personal items...so things get stolen everyday.  Today my friend Ms S. got all of her meds stolen...and she needs them......terminal ill patients and medical will make her wait for 30 days to get them replaced.

In the morning at 6am I see the women from that shelter lined up outside the womens center to get in for showers, breakfast, phone, computer, doctor and case management.  They are tired and frustrated and now I know why!

Can you imagine sleeping with your identification, cell phone, lap top, camera , clothes and everything you own with one eye open?

This is one of the many reasons many people prefer to get a tent and sleep outside.  I don't blame them.

The Downtown Women's Center is located at 442 So San Pedro St
Los Angeles, CA 90013
donations are accepted in the parking lot


Just Plain Tired


I have been blessed...still couch surfing while I get my paper work together and thanks to a loving Universe I will have all of my papers Friday morning.

This morning I took a few instagram pics and went and had breakfast and DWC had a vegetarian option YES!



I took my meds for my swollen jar and high blood pressure..  I feel a little tired...oh maybe because I was up til 12:30am last night......

Time for an hour nap and then off to lunch and shopping at Downtown Women's Center...

Also there is a farmers market today in front of where I stay so pictures later.....
