Seriously my friends and lovers...

I'm still alive, somehow but trying to avoid staying outside all night for the third time in 4 days.

I have $195 right now at 6:23pm Friday June 12th. I need $200 more. I just need to go to bed.

(I tried to book something much less expensive but their airbnb info was incorrect, so try to get plan B.

I woke at 7am Thursday morning and haven't been allowed to lay down since. 3pm is check in everywhere. I need $$$ now so don't pass out.

Last night was windy and freezing. I used a spare pair of pants as a shawl. It was embarrassing and didn't work well. I need help. I need people to care right now. I need sleep more than every other night. I especially need sleep now.

If 10 People put $50 deposits on paintings I could find something, even at weekend prices and eat.

My feet are shredded from walking 15 miles in flip flops. I can't walk anymore.

Except for a humiliating 20 minutes in the lobby of a hotel whose junk fees increased the cost of a room beyond my means, I was out all night. I haven't slept. Everything hurts. Please help me never have another night like that.

It's nearly 3am, I'm cold, Exhausted, and couldn't pay for the hotel because of incidentals deposit. So now $50 short, I had to leave. I'm now in a worse area. Please help me get somewhere, please. Please.

I guess I'm spending another night outside. Alone, outside, in the cold. I was generously given money for a sweater. I don't know where to buy one at 2:30am in Denver, though.

I'll let you have almost any painting I have in storage if you Venmo $300, name, address and top 3 painting choices. I can get it out of storage and ship almost anything tomorrow.

May 4st, 8:20AM THE SHERIFF CAME FRIDAY MORNING!!!

UPDATE:MAY THE FOURTH BE WITH YOU, BECAUSE IT'S NOT WITH ME. I'M WORSE OFF NOW THAN MAY 1ST. I DON'T HAVE SOMEPLACE ELSE TO GO. I DON'T HAVE ANYONE ELSE TO ASK FOR HELP.

Here's the plan! Pay Everything I owe and make enough sales to pay for a few months ahead.

Please Boost, Buy, Donate, Please!!! Help an Autistic Artist remain in a community with necessary support for her.

I haven't heard anything from either my landlord or the court yet. I expect that to change today. I'm doing everything I can think of to raise the funds to keep my housing. I'm bad at math but have a bit over 1/3 of what is due!!!

I'm so scared! I feel utterly hopeless. Last night would have been better but if I can pay today I might be able to keep my housing. I won't be homeless. Please if can help me. As long as someone doesn't already own it give you any art you want if you Venmo in the next few hours!

The process has played out. All the hearings have occurred. I pay or the sheriff moves me out! I don't have another option. There is no other housing available to me.

Nothing is working! I can't raise any money, or make sales.If you are able please, please help me keep my housing.I don't have any other options than to make it work.

Somehow I have to make almost $12,000 tonight!!! or I will lose my housing, gallery, and all of benefits of the location. I'm begging that if you can you'll support me and my independent woman owned gallery and ability to have a safe place to make my art. Thank you in advance. Love Kate.

Even more terrifying updates.

Landlord said if I catch up he'll vacate the motion for hearing!!! I have to get it all together today.

Mother's Day is so soon. Get your mom something really nice (and help an autistic, grieving artist keep my housing.). Commissions available. Help me be okay during this period of enormous precariousness. Thank You!!!
