Another start of a new week.

This place I'm staying at is a Shelter, but it's not like any Shelter I've been in. Let me try to explain a few things. Keep in mind this is my opinion and this is what works for me.

A Shelter is a place where your suppose to regroup yourself, talk a little time and adjust your strategy. First...rest your body and then your mind, get your game plan in order. There are rules, first rule is The Curfew. Usually it's 10pm. You have to handle all your business by 5pm because around that time it's dinner time, don't miss dinner. After a few days, usually two, start looking for work. But at most Shelters, in any State you go to, people need work done and will come to Shelters paying decent good money for a days work. But if you have a resume, a laptop, your best bet is to go to the library. Okay, you have your job search in motion, now all you have to do is just wait for calls and emails to flow in.

I moved from New York City to Virginia. I had to change all my addresses on everything inside in NYC for Virginia...I mean everything. My FREE Government issues Obama Phone..the data plan just stopped working. Had to call them and they adjust my phone to the Cell Towers here.

I got my first paycheck this past Friday. It was only for 3 days. No direct deposit though and I was worried about cashing it until.. I have a Chime Debit Card. On the app they have a deposit feature, problem solved.

I have an getting Food Stamps in NYC and my card works here but.. I need to do a couple of things this month. Schedule an appointment with Social Services and apply for SNAP and Medicaid. Plus go to DMV and get a Non Drivers ID.
