Temping agencies great source for day to day employment.

Make one page resume.
Go personally to agency.
Fill out application and take their tests.
Leave your resume.
Tell them you will do `any job’, and that you will call them daily.
Do this with several agencies.
Make notes of everything you learn so you can update your skills.
Take lunches and snacks.
Use break/lunch times to ask others how to `work things’.
To increase skills, you need to learn; to do that, you need to do and work it.

Salvation Army offers `free’ residential help for homeless and addicts.
Their program is for a certain length of time; to stay, you follow their rules.

Homeless shelters are temporary; most receive government grants and Samaritan donations.
They have strict rules.
General Relief gives you an allotment per month plus food stamps;
requirements are mandatory job search reports.

211 is a new nationwide system allowing you to call and request information on agencies helping homeless, indigents, those in trouble/need. http://www.211.org/
Homeless people in cars usually park outside of hospitals and/or patrolled church yards so that their security cameras offer some vigilance.
They use Catholic Church restrooms to clean up while mass is going on.
Libraries have free computer use/resource librarians great info resource#

Contract Adult Relative

CONTRACT This is a legal binding contract between me: _____________________________________________________________

and my Adult Relative: _________________________________________________________

I hereby am giving you a no interest loan in the amount of: _____________________________________________________________

According to professional advice,
it is best sometimes for adult relatives to `let go and let God’
guide family member to other(s) who are not as vulnerable and attached so that mature, independent thinking can ensue.

In the past, to the best of my ability, I have assisted you.

In order for you to continue your maturity in an independent way without hindrance and or co-dependency on my part,
it has been advised to loan you a certain amount and give you a resource information sheet.

By you accepting this money and signing this contract, you agree:

To not contact me by phone, or in person

until you have successfully achieved an independent working lifestyle for yourself

and have your own place of residence,

and are able to meet me with money saved thus able to hand over to me payment in full of the above loan.

Mail is welcomed.

I understand that sometimes saying good by to an adult relative is
analogous to wishing them a fond farewell as they go off to `do military service’
in loving and protecting their country, self, universal kith and kin.

To me, you are now entering the military service of adulthood.
It may take one year, two, or longer, but I believe, that with God’s help, you will succeed.
Please know that you will be daily in my prayers.

I love you+ Signatures: Date: ____________________________________________________________

non medical in home caregiver HOW TO FIND A CAREGIVER
A geriatric-care manager can help in this search.
These professionals typically charge about $60 to $150 an hour; to find a private care manager,
consult the National Association for Professional Geriatric Care Managers at
http://www.findacaremanager.org
Some private groups, such as Catholic Charities or Jewish Family Services, provide senior case management.

For referrals, contact your Area Agency on Aging, reachable through the Eldercare Locator at
http://www.eldercare.gov
Faith in Action, an interfaith foundation-funded long-term care voluntarism initiative, can sometimes provide volunteers to cook, run errands and so on; see
http://www.fiavolunteers.org.

The National Association for Home and Hospice Care, a trade group at
http://www.nahc.org/,
offers an online locator for in-home service providers by area.
For other suggestions, a useful brochure on long-distance elder care is "Handbook for Long-Distance Caregivers," available free at
http://www.caregiver.org


Finally, remember that in-home assistance is not the beginning of the end.
Rather it's an active step to prolong your elder parents' ability to live in their lifelong home for as long as possible. Hiring an in-home caregiver is a proactive step that can help the elderly continue to lead healthy, active and happy lives.

Dear Lawn Bowling Members,
What a delightful group you are!
You were like a close family eagerly welcoming new additions.

Thank you Gail so much for the warm first impression welcome;
you truly are Mrs. Wonderful.

I so enjoyed meeting President Peter,
Norm, Eileen, Josie, Jeanie, and special shout outs to Roy for caring/sharing,
and awesome professional 10+ instructor Reggie Rook!

I love learning and meeting new notables.
Part of my miracle new life adventures is traveling to new places each week -
celebrating renaissance life that is still recovering from violent assault mid-December 2005 (42 stab wounds -
in coma two months).

I believe that God blessed me with renewed life to meet wonderful new `kith and kin‘ and add to extensive prayer list: you are now on.
I had emailed several times after missing Open House, but did not hear back; so glad I called.
Malcolm graciously encouraged me to come.
I am eager to care/share with others.
God Bless You All - ‘til the next time or in the Sweet Bye and Bye.
Respectfully, MJG AKA RMN Association Renaissance Creators
