World class lunch-mine.

Some metal. At a site we were called to today.

We arrived at the location to see a woman step out of a tarp shelter with no shirt, only a bra and undies, and proceed to bathe herself (how Salvie), then three more people showed up in the next 5 minutes while we waited for her to get decent. Of the 4 people none were the person we were looking for, they all assured us they were not homeless and did not want or need our help...ok.

New World Roth

I have been back from the Peace Corps for 9 months now.

Since then I have had some crazy times, some even revil the craziness of El Salvador: which brings me to the point of this post-changing the substance of this blog.

After a slew of crazy jobs, I finally have one full time job that I have been working for about 2 months. I drive or ride around Queens with my coworker, looking for homeless people to house, and or responding the 311 calls.

Everyday there is always somekind of craziness.

I can't disclose any personal information about clients, so any names or places I might use are all changed or fictional.

The primary substance of this blog will be photos, like fiber in a diet to help keep it regular.

Help me!

Hey all!

So as you know I have won a grant from World-Connect to realize this chicken project. What you might not realize is that in November someone robbed my house of $600 that was for the chicken project. At this point we have used all the rest of the money that we won. The money will go to buying food for the chickens until the 11th of April when the chickens will hopefully start laying eggs, and the people in the project can start selling the eggs to offset or pay for the cost of the feed.
