So PROUD of this BEAUTIFUL WOMAN!!!!! Don’t cry, sweetheart, people do things for good people. So so SO PROUD OF YOU, girl! You did that!

I'm with her. I don't have a fixed bed. I want all the open space I can get. I have two folding cushions to sit on during the day. I lay them out at night addingva third folding cushion. It's so perfect.

Wow! She is SO clever. I must have added about 5 things to my trash picking list as I scavenge for materials for my own future van. LOVE her milk crate covers, the shower surround sliding doors, the converted tray table... She's an upcycling genius!

@@BlueWonderLady I have an idea I want to share with y’all. Not sure if it’s too much $ but, I watch people showing their toilets and I have been thinking about how something would work. People who have to wear bags for their stoma after having their colon removed can get a bottle to put just a few drops of liquid in their bags to keep it from having an odor. You don’t have to use much. It’s just a few drops and bottle will last forever. Let me know if anyone tries it. I am trying to get stuff together to go on the road and hopefully can join everyone soon so maybe one day I will see you down the road!😁

It´s horrible beeing homeless and Vanessa is a perfect example how a human, especially a woman can survive and overcome trauma, homelessnes etc. maybe one day, Vanessa will be able to go life in a house or appartment again, if she wants to. and her Treasure, or was is Precious (?) is the most WOW factor. I wish Vanessa all of the very best for her life. She is an absolute ROLE MODEL. WOW.

The short story: I came to realize that in today's economy, the only way I could vacation (and perhaps to have a roof over my head if things stay the same) was to make some life changes.

And then I got Colon Cancer. But I'm trusting in God to help me to get on the road for atleast a few months and enjoy some freedom before I can't thank you for your inspiration you have given me back my hope God bless you and I pray you have a blessed life
