Aidpage

I'm starting an Outdoors: hunting, fishing, hiking, camping and canoeing website. I would love to connect with others with the same interests. Looking for writers, IT, web developers and videographers to work together and create the dream job.

Would love to hear others stories, tips and cooking recipes; anything related to the outdoors.

Got an idea? Let's work together! What would an outdoors person like to see or read about? Share your thoughts...I need stories and advice!

I wrote this in the blog on my website of useful resources for folks who need them, and it made sense to post here too. Mostly, I'm focused on how very quickly I have to figure out moving out, but I'm also sick from all the yucky stuff in that flood, and having a dental emergency on top of it. I start to rant a bit mor than is usually ladylike, but please understand, I have this awful toothache.... though somehow, I see the humor in some of this.

Dear God!

For anyone veiwing this page for reasearch, or for people who maybe haven't had this experience- do you have any idea what the "urban poor" have to go through to get any kind of dental care if they can't afford to pay for it out of pocket?

Six months I have had state insurance thaat will cover some emergencies.... but you have to basically wait until your gums are about to exploede and you have a real good fever. Seriously. I -finally had a dentist who was willing to give me an actul appointmnt ttoday, and then, hopelink ( an organiation that provides transportation to and from medical appointments for those who qualify ) refused service. You see, they have to now in advance that it's going to be an etraction- but the dentist can't setermine that without seeing th patient.

I am however perfctly ellegible to get  ride to the hospital, where they will shoot me up with novacane, give me pain killers, and send me home. I've done that twice already; and they referr you to -immediately- see an oral surgeon. Of couse, in this partcularl loop you can't get one, until you've seen a dentist, who then evaluates the proper course of action. Meanwhile, back at the ranch, I've had an on again off again fever that randomly spikes to HIGH temperatures. For months.

Have these people heard of brain damage and the dangers of persistant fever?

Like, I'm not a rocket scientist, or a Doctor, or a Dentist, or a Social Worker-- but as an adult citizen with the ability to type out my thoughts, I gotta say there is something really wrong with the system. A person could die from complications due to a situation like this, which could be entirely avoided by adressing the actual problem.

Thank God, if it gets really bad tonight, I can hail a cab and go have an er doctor temporarily put me out of my misery, -- at a high cost the state will happily pay. Why won't they just as happily let me go get a root canal and a couple of fillings where proper medical care can be given for dental issues, at a -much- lower cost?

Maybe I'm somehow going about all of this all wrong, and should call my social worker. Oh, wait, I did that twice last week. A clerk on a third line explained that they're not taking calls at all, as they have ONE person doing what FOUR used to do. You'd think maybe laying off social workers at a time when a greater portion of the population is under ecconomic stress would seem like a bad idea, wouldn't you?

So, a friend of mine filled out an application for a different local service called Donated Dental Care. Technically, it has a 12 month wait....and I sure can't wait another 12 months. However, I added a little note, and who knows, maybe there's a way to expidite things.

Thank the Gods I'm a very stubborn and mildly crazy redhead. Any sane person would have probably jumed of a bridge by now.

I on the other hand have resolved myself to somehow ignore it entirely until tomorrow, in whatever fashion works. I have to continue packing my stuff and figuring out exactly how I'm approaching several other things.

WALK IT OFF.

You can see the rest of that reated blog here:

I am poor, as poor as you

So why do you come to me being so blue

What can I do to ease your pain

When I am feeling exactly the same

I am broke, as broke as can be

But yet you ask, "Why want you give to me?"

How can I make you understand

That I too was born of earthly sand

Even though I have nothing

I will give you this one something

I give unto you the last of my lot

I give unto you all that I got

I give you my blessing and love

They were given from my FATHER above

I give you my mind

So that you will not be blind

I give you my hand

To hold so you can stand

Now I have given all that I had

I no longer feel so bad

'Cause I know that some day soon

Those blessing will return in a monsoon.

I am looking for an audience here on Aidpage.  I have a blog the title is, "Everything You Need to Know to Start Ebaying", I talk about the subject matter but also about day-to-day activities.  I need readership support, and in return I wll provide that support and more to others.

I can't beleieve I have come to this point.  I feel like am drowning.  I am married to the man I thought was my best friend but we are so far apart andeverything around us is falling apart.  I developed a gambling problem several years ago and sought help, it is a struggle everyday but I take it one day at atime.  Due to the problems in the past I have reached a place where we are so far in debt that I want to cry all the time.  I pray but feel so unworthy that I can't hear the good Lord's answer.  I hate to answer our phone and our paychecks don't cover what we need.  I just pray for a fresh start and a chance to get my marriage and family back on track.  Please let me know if you have any suggestions on where I can turn.

Hi, Aidpagers!  I run Google Adwords on my blog, and am very close to hitting the amoutn for a payout but I could use a few extra clicks, so please take a moment to go to my blog, scroll down past thebanner ads and click on one of the Google ads (they are in pink rectangles that say Ads by Google).  You don't have to buy anything or sign up for anything, all you have to do is click your mouse!

Hello everyone. I'm so glad to have found this site. I was diagnosed with bipolar disorder a few years ago and have dedicated my free time to writing a blog about my daily experiences, recollections of past episodes of manic behavior and current symptomatic episodes (sometimes as they're happening) so that others may fully understand what someone with the disease may be experiencing. Anyway, feel free to visit via this link.

Have you seen it on the news? Surely you have. The best job offer ever. Australia is offering some lucky applicant 6 months on a beautiful island, they'll pay them $105,000 US dollars, and all they have to do is blog for about 12 hours a month.! It's Legit!!!  They are taking applications until Febuary 22nd and the job starts in July. It's hard to get on their website, but here it is. http://www.islandreefjob.com . Duties include cleaning the pool, feeding fish, snorkling, exploring the Great Barrier Reef, and blogging about it. So far the only requirements I have seen are, speaking and writing english. And the ability to blog. They are supposed to pick 11 finalists, and fly them to the island for a final interview. How Cool!!! Everyone should check it out! Good Luck! Again, It's very hard to get on the website! The world news is saying it's not a hoax, so don't blame me if it turns out to be. But wouldn't it be great? Maybe a little lonely, but it would be totally worth it.

My take on Aidpage is that it SHOULD work like FreeCycle in that it should be a give and take. If you want others to help you, then you should try to help others.

I see a lot of people come on here looking for a quick answer. Not everyone so put your dander down. Some of those same people get upset when the quick or easy answer isn't there. I don't get that since many of us got to this site for the same reasons as they did.

I would like to think that there is a give to this... in my case it's parenting tips and special needs help because it's what I know, in another's case it may be the grant tips, and in another it may be the local food pantry. There is also the support of a kind word or a direction to turn or lean.

In so many cases in today's world, people are all about the give me. What can you do for me? How can I gain? Hopefully we can help change that for the future, to make it better.

If you need help, ask for it. But while you are waiting try to give back what you can. If it's time, words, tips, whatever. "Pay it forward" Don't get angry if the fix you are looking for doesn't fall in your lap. Keep coming back and reaching out. Things have a way of untangling themselves if we are proactive.

Be well and know that you are not alone. Be nice and play fair.

Aidpage wants me to do a blog, once in a while, I don't do blog's. What's a blog? To me it's just someone running off a the head about a subject that person thinks they know something about. A letter to yourself.

Well , I have been known to run off at the mouth before, uh, several times. Some times it was even at the right time. I hope this helps some people, because when I first started looking for "grants" I thought I'd be able to fill out a one or two page application and get the grant I was asking for. HAHAHAHAHAHA, it was a joke on me. I bought "books", "software" , and found that with all the money I spent, if  I would have looked a little deeper into it on the net, I would not have had to spend the money. Except,I do have some addresses, phone numbers, and places that could bee out of date, and most are. Just like Grantgate, I have received a couple of letters back, because they"could not be delivered".

I have also been disheartened because, the more I look at " business " it's really disappointing.They make it hard for someone to start a business. You need a business plan, to borrow money, and of course to 'give your business more direction' a reminder of what you plan on doing. Gee,how could you forget?If you are just starting up, I don't believe you are going to forget, if you are that stupid, you are going to make it anyway. I mean, come on, if you have had some of the supervisers, and bosses that I have had there are a lot of peple that should be running a business, instead of them. I don't want to get started on that,though!

I grew up thinking that to own a business was a BIG deal, YOU owned it. It was like working for somebody, give them 100% or better to earn your money, proud , that after work you knew you gave your best, you were a part of something that had meaning. Any more though it seems that a lot of businesses are out to get yout money, whether it is by lying, cheating, hook or crook. Where have the business ethics gone, I could tell you but then I couldn't be on Aidpage enymore.

The grants are as bad as the business plans, usually about 30-50 pages long. What gets me is the being able to predict your finances. You start out with zipcus and you either make it or you lose it. To me it seems that those charts are a measure of how good of a liar you are, because in reality, you have No idea only a hunch or a hope that it goes as well as you want it.

Well, I just shot myself in the foot  with typing these thoughts out but, oh, well. Stay tuned, in the next 'Blog', I'll give some addresses out . Your comments are welcome. May God Bless.

HI

I am an inventor and I love to invent things that makes the world a better place. When you love to do something there is great joy of doing just that. I have spent all of my money on this invention and I don't have a dime left. I need help! If someone out there can help me with money or tell someone about the invention that can help me put it on the market please help.

All of these companys just want money from the inventor.What we need to do is create an inventors blog that is just for inventors where we can cry on each others shoulders and find ways to help ourselves.

We need to finds ways to do for ourselves. Come to gather and build our own website to show case our product for free. And we need to draw manufactures attention to our mission. Can anyone help me with do that?

I am ready to do something about the problem. We spent all of our money to invent something to make America a better place than we become  broke and helpless. Let's help each other.

So I forgot I had this AIDPAGE thing until I recieved and e-mail about 15 minutes ago.

 But in regards to everything.  I'm still looking for money. I'm doing better now.  I have an apartment, eat well and I'm able to travel a little.

But money it's how I would like it to be.  So anymore help out there let me know. Jobs (NC, VA, DC) Anything, let me know.
