Vacation?!
Genevieve Jones*, 2006

Places like this—McNally Robinson, the public libraries, the Mendel and other art galleries, the University Geology Building—are my usual vacation spots. And closer to home when I'm not feeling well. Out of city, or province, or country are not things I have money for, unless I choose not to eat properly, or make other such sacrifices. 

Closets/Emptiness
Dawn McGraw*, 2006

This is my son’s closet. My kids don’t have a lot of clothes and certainly not expensive clothes. What’s there is all too small for him. It’s just empty, like the hearts of our children sometimes.

The closets have no doors. Too many tenants in the past have damaged the doors, so now tenants are not allowed to have them.

TV and a Phone
Mary Jane*, 2006

If you are on assistance, a phone is a luxury, a TV is a luxury. And if you have cable TV, it is an extreme luxury. Your TV provides you with entertainment. You can’t afford to go out to a movie.

The only way I got a phone was I was in a relationship where I was in danger, so I had to have some way of calling for help.
