My life untold

Hello downtown!

I went straight to my computer to check emails. In the afternoon we went downtown to get the money sent by Ms. Ingrid. It should be yesterday but I had problem with the paypal link so I moved it today. I am uncomfortable to go alone so I asked Donald if he will go with me...of course Ella will go too. It's like 2 months since I've last seen downtown. We went straight Western Union and waited for a while, then we picked some snacks for Ella since she had been given $20 by CarolinaMommy for her needs and milk too. She asked if she can go in and play at Wonderland. A play place for $1.5 per hour. I can't afford to spend and waste money for it so I told her we will go to McDo so she can play there. Since MoreWishes sent $10 for Donald's birthday, we ordered fries, spaghetti,chicken and sundae so Ella could play in the play place. We spent $6 so we saved $4. Ella was so happy and don't want to leave. When we are outside the store and about to leave, a girl asked Ella for food...she's holding her french fries, she looked at me and I said "She's asking for food..., give her some" she looked at the girl and then looked back at me and asked me "Can I give it all?" I nodded then she let the girl take it. That's what I'm proud of her, she's pssionate about the beggars especially the kids. She would even stroke an old woman's arm even when she looked so filthy and give her money...that was when we had money still. But now that we have no extras and even asked for help from others, she still know how to share.

When we got home, Donald told me the tv was gone two weeks ago. The store repoed it and he never told me about it. I was actually expecting it but I still feel sad about lossing it. There's nothing left except our beds, our old clothes, our plastic drawers of clothes, one plastic cabinet for food and dishes...few plates and flatwares...and some odd cooking utensils. It's just made me sad since Ella loved watching her dvd's. It's the only way we can keep Ella inside the home. Especially when we get to the province, she has nothing to do there...but tv is just a thing. It is not a neccessity.

Elisabeth had sent me a message an I was so happy to receive one from her. Yesterday she was so down and I'm glad she's doing okay now.
