We have worked through our financial problems and can start an emergency funds and savings in June

Elizabeth's Social Security will come on Friday the 23rd. Mine will come on the  1st and the third. However, we have one hurdle we need either $355 today to pay for the week here at   InTown Suites or $150 to pay until Monday at noon to extend our time to work this out

We will repay when Elizabeth's Social Security is deposited on Paypal around 1:30 pm on Friday the 23rd 

Better to be kicked off Zazzle then to be out on the street and not survive

If those amounts are too much, small amounts will add up. I will post to stop people from sending if anyone sends in the first place. Keep the email address in case you need help in the future

Will somebody please help? We have been with Zazzle since 2010 and I'm throwing all that away out of desperation. Even though we probably won't be here, you will definitely be able to report on Friday that you will be paid back.

Will somebody please help us? You can check my Twitter and Facebook pages. I have been asking, begging, and groveling  publicly for the last couple of days.

This is two human lives. Even if they don't kick us off I will probably leave out of embarrassment even if we are able to pay for the room or survive being on the street,  If we get help you will be repaid on Friday the r.

We are 71 and 73 with no car. This is not the way we have lived our lives to this point.

Thank you, you know who you are.  It will not be forgotten. We are paid until noon on Monday which will give us more time to work out  the other four days

I tried to find you on Zazzle so we can promote you. email Marilyn at the email above. We are getting a good number of looks with our Benable lists. Maybe you can be the one Zazzle store we promote on Benable.  Here is our Benable link.

Before Zazzle kicks us off or takes this down. We can still use help with the four days from noon on Monday until noon on Friday.  The weekly rate comes out to $50 a night. The daily rate is $77 a night  we need $308 to get through until Friday. We can't get into an apartment because they want your income to be 3 x the rent and we receive a little less than that. However, since we have worked this long and gotten to a little above an even keel, we expect to find the right combination of things to make the sky our limt. So anybody who helps us should keep the above email, as soon as we can it will be just ask and the answer is yes.

📢 Short-Term Loan Needed – One Blog Content Package Available in Return

My sister Elizabeth and I have been living in an extended-stay hotel in Columbus for several years due to income and credit requirements that have kept us out of traditional housing. After years of stability here, we’re finally seeing possible paths forward—we’ve applied to a new senior housing development and found a few studio apartments in our budget.

We expected to move by the end of May, but we’re still waiting to hear back.

Right now, we need a short-term loan to help us stay in our hotel room safely through Friday, May 23rd at 1:30 PM, when Elizabeth's Social Security payment will be available, and we’ll repay every loan in full.

Here’s the breakdown:

🔹 One night = $80 loan (includes fees and taxes)

🔹 Full week = $379 loan (the most cost-effective option)

📬 Send loans to HomeArtsContentandCopywriting@gmail.com

📆 Repayment will be made on Friday, May 23rd, around 1:30 PM ET.

We’re reaching out to friends, colleagues, and fellow creatives—and we’re offering something of value in return to the person or group who covers the full week:

Exclusive Offer: $1,800 Blog Content Package for $379 Loan

(One package only)

As a thank-you for covering the full $379 (as a loan), we’re offering one high-value content package for a small business, solopreneur, or Zazzle seller:

4 short-form blog posts (each tailored to your brand or niche)

A 3-month blog editorial calendar

Total value: $1,800 (based on my Home Arts Content & Copywriting rates)

This is ideal for:

Building SEO and traffic for your Zazzle shop or small business site

Establishing trust and authority in your field

Creating a content foundation that keeps working for you all summer

If more than one person contributes to cover the full $379, they’ll need to decide how to divide the blog posts and calendar among themselves.

We’re so grateful to the kind Zazzler who already covered part of our stay. Ok gift gave us time to organize this offer and avoid panic. Now we just need four more nights—or one full-week loan—to make it to Friday.

Thank you for reading, for sharing, and for standing by us. 💛

We are still stressing pretty badly.

Never think that old friends will help you or I have managed to make the wrong friends. I'm sorry but I have to let this out somewhere.  A couple days ago, a friend from high school contacted me. I thought it was because of the requests I made on Facebook for help. I started talking about it , she cut me off, and said good luck. Believe it or not, it just happened again with one of my three best friends from high school. I really don't need that hurt when I'm trying to solve this problem. I wouldn't do that to them or anyone but there has to be a reflection on you if two of your old friends are like that. BTW, I can show anybody who wants to see it the short conversation.

We at least need $20 to take a cab to one of my other best friends house tomorrow if we get kicked out. She is a retired nurse but she doesn't invite you in and she doesn't have a phone or email.

I know every state is different, but does your state have an "Office for the Aging" that you can contact so they can help you find housing? They also help with stuff like financial assistance.
