You obviously have internet access, so seek out a homeless shelter - through a church or other community organization. The county government offices can give you information too, and advice you which assistance programs you may be eligible to get - if only temporarily. If you have any children, then please check for resources to help you and them through the school system.

Since your posting is in a rural area, I guess you're in that location, but you might have to go into a more populated town to get help. There are likely more services available in larger communities - such as Front Royal; Warrenton; or Culpeper, without you having to travel as many miles to get them.

I hope this help get you started and you're soon surrounded by warmth and love. Take care.

Hey,don't be so rude. Some homeless people are ONLY homeless. Like myself. I have a car, a job, even a cell phone. But the lack of jobs in warrenton caused me to settle for a low income job which didn't pay all my bills. And because of my low income job, I don't fit the qualifications that most landlords have these days. So I had to resort to living in my car, which I also have to keep paying for. That and other bills have me living paycheck to paycheck out of my car. I've gone to the shelters, I've applied for transitional housing, and the conclusion I've come to is that unless you are a single mother or severely disabled most organisations have you at the bottom of a looooong waiting list. The worst part is I'm only 21, went to college, and still this is where I am. Not to sound cliche but the economy sucks. So before you run arround biased about homelessness and the people who suffer from it, keep in mind that right now the resources available to us these days don't help everyone. And they certainly don't keep me warm at night.-Kiirya

Daily Horoscope for June 2

Capricorn

You feel like overindulging yourself in some way today, and why not? Throw caution to the wind and eat your way through a big bar of chocolate, or have a retail therapy session that leaves you reeling from the amount of money you've spent. There's a definite chance you could get carried away and tell a whopper of a story that has little resemblance to what really happened. What on earth has got into you?
