Did I Ever Mention To You All That I Let Two Homeless Guys Stay Over Winter?

I realized while answering Method's blog that I never told you guys the story of last Winter's guests. Last year during the worst Blizzard in the history of New England, I let two homeless guys stay in my house. The first question in your mind maybe, Is WL crazy? Then, the second question, Were they hot? :P

 

To answer your questions, No, I am quite sane if a bit soft hearted. As for hotness, one was around my age with a cute/shy demeanor and another was in his 50's who kept saying thank you every so often. I did not exchange sex for board or anything crazy like that, but they wanted to help out around the house, so I got my porch repainted, snow shoveled, and a new screen on my door put in, which I paid them for materials and some extra for cost.

 

When the spring came, they moved out and last I heard they got some temp jobs as painters.

 

No I am not Bill W. or any of you other guys who write about taking in homeless gay teens, I haven't seen that many in Boston to be honest, which either means we're really good with accepting gay teens or they were all taken in by gay couples long before I came around, too bad I don't have inspiration to write those stories :(

 

I am a hard nosed Conservative, but I am not above charity or caring for my fellow man. I didn't even think about posting this on my blog until now, I really didn't think much of it. They were good guys, who just got bad deals in life.

I'm not Mother Theresa, I just did what I thought was right versus letting two people freeze to death in 3 feet of snow

Hear that, WL? You're a drip.

 

Seriously, I'm impressed, but not totally surprised.

 

I wish more folks did what they thought was right.

My brother and his family live near Boston so I remember from their updates, how severe the winter was.

 

Thank you for helping those two men. I'm sure they appreciated your kindness and generosity beyond measure.

Helping others is a good thing, but helping Needy is Great. I appreciate that and I Love You for doing such a great thing... :)

Taking in people was very selfless. 

 

Now, I am doubting my slightly left of center tendencies.

I am way too skeptical and untrusting to let strangers in my home.

 

You are a wonderful, kind person who did a good deed.

I applaud you.

:worship:

Thank you for helping in this tragic problem in America.

 

Having been thru my own period of homelessness in 2011, I know how much these men appreciated the help you provided in their time of need.

 

Thank you, again.
