I've run into some big unexpected expenses. The truck needed more repairs, and they weren't cheap. Between buying packing supplies and having repairs to the truck, most of the money has been consumed. I still have some, it's not all gone, but at this point there is enough left to get me to Illinois and that's about it. Nothing will be left over to actually pay the deposit on an apartment.

You've all been so incredibly generous to me, and this pains me so badly to ask for more, but I don't have any real alternative. Please do not stop giving once the goal is reached. I thank you from the bottom of my heart.
