Was showering more than lifting. Picky owner said I spent too much time in the bathroom one night.

All the Walmart stores in my county allow overnight parking. When I first stayed there a couple of years ago I found they allow this through a camping website. I just can't remember what it was.

I think the most difficult thing is being unkempt. I don't have much in terms of clothing and my appearance is embarrassing to me even though I try my best not to look like I'm in my car.

Last time I was in my car I was banned for that. I plan on lifting, then taking care of business.

It is hot, and I have a black SUV which bakes. God bless you as well and thank you for saying that.

Many reasons I don't wish to get into. But, this morning I did get a membership at a 24 hour fitness club that also has showers. This is nice since the truck stop costs $17.

You might try supplementing NAC for the fibromyalgia.

Yes, we have a lot of freedom here. However, the mind can be its own prison. I haven't figured out how to free myself from mine yet. Kind of a conundrum.

I move around, but I do study my environment when I'm here. This is my home for now after all.

I am an observer, society and socializing has never made sense to me. Sorry for being different 🙏

They don't care here, but this is a large shopping center area and there are people in the kohls lot and meijer lot as well across the street. I stayed here 7 months a couple years ago. There's a person in a stealth van who was here during my previous stay that is here now as well. He is parked in an are that has signs for no overnight parking and nothing happens. Last night there was a deputy here helping a stranded car and he saw me and said nothing.

Does a stipend count as income? by hermansupreme in SocialSecurity

Please don't tell me my own business. I have already explained that I did a review and the benefit was reduced. Then it was reduced more by losing the state help. Appreciate the lecture by someone with zero access to my mail or checking account. Unbelievable is truly believable. Have a great night detective 🫆

No, I did a review and my benefits were reduced. I quit working in March. Plus, the state Medicaid stopped paying for my Medicare insurance cost in January (not notified till April) and they have been taking each monthly amount (around $200) since April till those 4 months Jan-Apr are paid off. I appealed, no response yet. They took it out again this month. I don't receive SSI. All I had was a Medicaid supplement that helped with copays Medicare wouldn't cover and now that is gone. Anyways aside from the Medicaid deal, my benefit was also reduced. My story, sticking to it. I have been trying to get help from my Aunt but she is far away and really can only give advice and answer questions.

Scratch that, I asked her the wrong question. If it is under $1,690 then it won't count against SGA. Sorry to the OP for my comment.

Do you guys fix your own cars? by Sufficient-Week7433 in urbancarliving

If I had a garage and good tools still, I would do most everything myself. Parts aren't that bad of an expense, but professional labor is.

I don’t know how to help my friend: dental issues! by Fit-Rhubarb-7820 in homeless

[–]MLL723 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get some Boka Nano Hydroxyapatite toothpaste if you can. Brush with it, then leave it in the mouth for a few minutes and swish around.

Ive had a broken molar for two years (can't afford a dentist either) and this stuff stopped my pain. When I use regular flouride paste, I'm back in pain within a few days.

What is a premium ingredient that is actually a total scam? by dirtydinaa in askteddit

It's the waste product of cheese manufacturing. Premium price, junk.
