elegantlion Posted August 6, 2011 Share Posted August 6, 2011 Jennifer, you are an awesome person. :D :iagree: I'm not in a position to contribute financially, but she and Joanne both have my thoughts and prayers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parrothead Posted August 6, 2011 Share Posted August 6, 2011 Does anyone have a phone number for Aubrey? Can you pm it to me? I have found a place for them in the part of Denver where her mom is located. Two weeks in an extended stay hotel. We have enough in the paypal account to cover it.Jennifer That is great! I didn't get here in time today to contribute to the Aubrey fund. Has there been something set up for Joanne? Who is overseeing it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
8circles Posted August 6, 2011 Share Posted August 6, 2011 That is great! I didn't get here in time today to contribute to the Aubrey fund. Has there been something set up for Joanne? Who is overseeing it? I think it's still open for donations, isn't it? I'm hoping so. I haven't heard about Joanne's yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jean in Newcastle Posted August 6, 2011 Share Posted August 6, 2011 Okay. Thanks. I suppose we need someone to step up and oversee something for Joanne. It might be best/easiest if someone with a paypal account who has been here a long while volunteers. I think there needs to be a separate thread for Joanne - by someone who is willing to do the paypal thing. It's too easy for it to get lost in this thread otherwise.

Sushi's Mom Posted August 6, 2011 Share Posted August 6, 2011 What about buying a trailer (rv type) and park it in the mom's driveway?

There are a lot of them for sale on Denver craigslist. http://denver.craigslist.org/rvs/2522034435.html It's a nice idea if her mom does not live in a neighborhood with covenants (ie. homeowner's association or other restrictions). But, Colorado being the "hey, let's go camping, skiing, hiking" state, maybe a campsite with full hook up is not out of the question. Some of those may be cheap during the off season. The main thing is that they'll need to be indoors before winter storms hit. Faith Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

woolybear Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 I finally found the Aubrey thread to know what you all were talking about. That situation doesn't sound good even without the house problems, but with them....very unsafe and mentally horrible. I can't send much, but I will send a bit tomorrow morning. Now, if I could only sell off a bit more of my used curriculum maybe I could send more. Haven't read the Joanne thread yet, but I would like to help there too. It is wonderful seeing so much support when most of have never/will never even meet each other. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aubrey Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 You guys are sneaky, too--I would never have agreed to this. But I am so humbled & touched & grateful. I thought the downstairs bedroom at least would be livable today, but when dh told me how much he's got due today...:svengo: I tuned him out after the 3 paper & 4th project. He really meant it when he said he needed all day to catch up. I've tried to make time for him earlier in the week, but you know--he says it's hard to walk away from his pg wife & recovering mil doing full-blown renovations. I'm trying to keep the kids quiet/out of his space & just praying that things will go faster & smoother than he thinks. The day before we moved, he got a job lead based on his current course work. I didn't mention it here because we've had so many of those that didn't turn into anything, but the contact actually returned dh's call (a first), & they had a good conversation. The co has some kind of system so good that it's a topic covered in dh's coursework. The catch? Their "openings" are "around the corner." As in, NOT NOW. And they're in TX. :svengo: :lol: Anyway, it's a potentially good enough job that dh was daydreaming about the neighborhood he wants to live in, etc. It all makes me think of Faulkner's Nobel Prize acceptance speech, about hope & pity & passion & what makes us human. For better or worse, I guess. The speech was good, maybe I should go reread it. And I'm thinking about finding a copy of Pursuit of Happyness--that movie's hitting a little too close to home these days. Dh pointed out that Will Smith had it worse. I pointed out that if our lives get Worse. Than. The. Movies, we're really sunk. :lol: You guys already have my love & respect & gratitude, for who you are every morning when I log on, but over the years...thank you so, so much.
