Get my love some security and hope

Hey all.

I hate to do this. I really hate to do this.

Those of you that know me know that, back in July, I fell in love with a wonderful person. Celeste has helped me grow in so many ways, and has been both love and help for me when I've needed it, good times and bad. If you've met them, I'm sure you understand why. And if not, then I hope you meet them soon.

Back in October, Celeste was attacked at their job in Maryland. It was the highlight of some really unsafe and bad work practices that were going on there.

I asked them to come out here to Wisconsin. To stay here for a while, get their feet back under them, and heal.

We made an arrangement in which they'd stay here until mid-April, at which time we assumed they'd have the financial wherewithal to get their own place, or live with others. I would have my space back, we'd still see each other, and they'd have their own stability.

Since then, life has lifed, and in many ways not positively. Unexpected insurance payments, problems with car payments, and damage to their car has made it so they're not so stable a bird as to be able to leave the nest.

I promised them I would not just kick them out on the streets, but I am also no longer in a place that I can add to the help I'm giving them.

So I turn to you all.

I hate to ask for money. I really, really do. But if you can help, even just a little, to get my love back on their feet? I would surely appreciate it.

Thank you so much.
