Hi Permies,

I just want to ask, because I feel really stumped about it.. I thought I landed an interview and it didn't go through to happen. I'm all this time working on this with applying to places, while trying to help my child to behave and trying to get my responses and fill out forms before standing here too long causes trouble. I know before I asked about where might be hiring farm help, while the weather is alright for my tent for now. Nothing. I'm even looking for entry-level places  that would have barracks or something my child and I, for me to work there. My expenses only covers parts of the way, so like a relocation.... And all I have is wagon with some hefty bags of our belongings, and my portable crashout. So I don't think I'll come with shelling out too much to be considerate. Anyone have any ideas, or suggestions or something or anything. Ok thank you take care .

I can't say how impressed I am with you surviving in a tent with a child over winter - how did you manage? Apart from the cold, I would be worried about snow loading, although snow would at least be extra insulation at least!
I hope you find a safe and welcoming place for you both soon.




Thank you, well here is good leaning towards that thank you for the warm regards. Thinking of it as like people that live near the Artic does this everyday, even raising children  What animals do to really put together their nest before hibernation was some inspirations and finding things as junk going with my gut or checking on the web if I can make any use out of it. Everytime during the night checking my child being warm and snoring have me so much relief and assurance of what I done to safeguard. When taking in the beauty of winter in those woods, gave good perspective also,It was unexpected and I had to put something together fast Ms. Nancy

I've known more than one woman on line who ended up basically stuck in an abusive situation in a remote area this way....they ended up fundraising from on line friends to make an escape. Ugh!  You might keep an eye out for land managed by a couple, a woman, or a group as an attempt to avoid this.  



Hi Alder, yes I love all this pep rally about it , it's definitely something I'd like to be apart of.  Not much come up even from talks , that's not trying to make arrangements from besides the point. I been scouting different sites , posts , reaching out, trying to share my situation enough.

 I was in a situation just like that woman, I did gofundme and got completely blown off of even the seriousness of it. So I'm Glad it worked out  for her in the way, I would've needed it to work out for me once upon a time. The way it did was still an dick move on their part. People need to stop invalidating women thinking they need to turn abuse into a partnership or it's something with the woman not making herself more taking in when what's she doing is just enough till more trust is built
