People...
So here I am at the central public library sitting and waiting for my mother to get done with work or whatever. She is moving offices and she had the city help her today. So they get 2 trustees from the city jail to help out or whatever right. Well the 2 people today were really nice people. The guy was younger and kinda what do you call it, like he had ADD or something of that sort, I don't know what he was in for. But the lady was a bit older. She has 2 kids. She was put in jail for a ticket from when her dogs got out. She has really had a kind of rough year. In February her husband died in a car accident. Then after he died her 14 year old son go in with the wrong crowd and in March they burned down her house. She has scars on her arms, legs, and face from trying to save stuff from her burning house. She saved one dog, and a few things that her daughter was crying for. Well her son ran away. She got put in last Wednesday, and will get out sometime this weekend. Her daughter is staying with some of her friends, and the other day they finally found her son. He said that he ran away because he thought that his mom hated him for burning down the house. So I believe that he is now also staying with her friends. It's just really sad, because they have no house, no cars (one was totaled from her husbands wreck, the other burned with the house), hardly any clothes. Stuff like that. So my mom and I asked her if she had a church home. She said that she hasn't been going. So I invited her to come to Southwest. I told her that they might be able to help her with clothes or what not. But if they can't she can go to Tyler Street Resource Center. She said as soon as she can she is going to try to get some family counseling for her and her kids. I really hope that she gets the help that she needs. So just pray for her if you're reading this. Well I am going to go read a book or something.
