4 FASHION INDUSTRY "MYTHS" AND HOW TO DEAL WITH THEM

YOUR GUIDE TO NOT FALLING FOR THE HALF-TRUTHS THAT SOUND LIKE GOSPEL IN THE
FASHION INDUSTRY

The fashion industry is a magnet for myths and misconceptions. Some people
believe that there are hidden “unwritten rules” that govern your place in the
fashion hierarchy.

If you look at it with a cynical lens, the industry can seem like a dense jungle
of rules, regulations, myths, and half-truths. Even those who have been working
in fashion for a long time sometimes fall for these half-truths. The trick to
navigate this industry is to know how to separate true myths from the "legends"
they've become.



Whether you’re new to the industry, have been here for a while, or are simply
interested in what it takes to succeed, this article explores 4 common myths
that you may have come across as well as how to deal with them.






FASHION IS THE 'MOST GLAMOROUS' INDUSTRY

If you think that what we see on screen or in magazines is exactly what’s behind
the camera, then you are wrong. The models you see in magazines, billboards or
on the runway are photographed for hours and live on strict schedules. They
often struggle with hours of exhaustive shoots, painful heels, and cutthroat
competition for work. Apart from models, fashion designers also always need to
be always on top of their games in order to be recognized in the industry.


YOU NEED TO BE GOOD AT 'SKETCHING' TO BECOME A FASHION DESIGNER

This age-old adage may have been true in the past, but today things are much
more accessible thanks to new technologies. You can use many different kinds of
computer-based design programs to create a sketch or flat drawings of garments.
Tools such as Tailornova, Sculpteo, and Virtuality help you turn flat sketches
into 3D fashion art. These tools and many more will make your life easier. They
help you create unlimited designs efficiently, effectively and without having to
even touch a physical pen or pencil.


YOU NEED TO BE 'BORN WITH CREATIVITY' TO SUCCEED AS A DESIGNER

While having a creative bone is good and it can greatly help you define your
voice as a designer, it is not a mandatory requirement to be born creative. Most
designers in the industry draw inspiration from various sources such as vintage
stores, magazines/brochures, and the runway. Many designers even simply learn by
replicating previous ideas and making minor alterations. The designs or content
can’t always be original, but they can surely be personalized, and there’s
nothing wrong with that as long as you're not blatantly copying someone's work.





THE FASHION INDUSTRY LACKS 'FORESIGHT OR INTELLECTUAL INSIGHT'

That myth sounds funny! The fashion and design process works in tandem with
rigorous trend forecasting, and the industry collaborates with data analysts and
forecasters to understand what will be desired in the future. Imagine the thrill
and anticipation that comes with predicting how individuals will behave in the
future!

In fact, foresight and analysis is a big part of what keeps the industry going.
It is the reason why the global fashion industry stands at a whopping $3
trillion in value today. Fashion brands, manufacturers and suppliers are
constantly investing in digital solutions such as enterprise resource planning,
product lifecycle management and factory floor analytics to ensure that they
have all the data they need to make smart, insight-driven decisions. The study
and research that goes behind all this makes the fashion industry equally as
insightful and intellectual as any other industry.



There are plenty of myths about the fashion industry. Even with all these myths
and stories, we still love the world of fashion. Be it a student, a
professional, or even an outsider, we all read fashion glossies, watch fashion
shows or follow some fashion trends. Fashion has unknowingly become an integral
part of our lives and it is here to stay forever. So, let’s stay away from myths
and do what we love doing the most.

A FEW IDEAS FOR TATTOO DESIGNS AND STYLES FOR WOMEN

TATTOO DESIGNS


blogsfit

707


Tattoos are in a constant state of flux, with new designs coming in and old ones
changing in style and application.






Sometimes they're fun, sometimes they're dark and sometimes they're intensely
dramatic. Most importantly, however, tattoos can do different things for
different people and there is no one style or color that works for everyone.

A tattoo design for everyone is something that became a popular trend at the
start of the millennium, and there are still several styles and approaches that
will appeal to most people. Here are five tattoo ideas for the summer that look
great for women of all skin tones.


1. WATERMELON

Tattoos aren't necessarily unique for women, but the above watermelon and
diamond pattern may be a particularly striking look for women. This design,
while on the low-key side, is also colorful and looks great for those who don't
go for the darker designs.


2. SILLY-CUTE

Bustle ranked the following sassy and cute tattoo options for women as some of
their favorites for 2018:

pic.twitter.com/0xM3Zo2Lds — Sally Beauty (@SallyBeautyEnt) January 4, 2018


3. ANIMAL LOVER

Instead of wanting to show off their favorite animal, perhaps a woman of any
skin tone would rather show off her favorite animals. Her favorite creatures are
usually large, such as tigers, horses, and other animals that stand out.


4. FRESH SPRING FLOWERS

She has beautiful, fresh blooms as a tattoo design on her, and now that it's
spring she doesn't want to cover them up.


5. CELEB INSPIRED

Celebrities are always changing their looks, and since tattoos are sometimes
connected to a celebrity or style, they're more likely to be seen as fashion
statements.

Some women want tattoos that stand out, and celebrities' designs are often
recognizable. These tattoos are usually small or less attention grabbing in
other ways, which makes them a bit more subdued for women.

But no matter what type of tattoo you want to get, they're all available for
your design inspiration. The internet is a great source for graphic ideas and
even though not everyone's going to want to get a matching set of sleeves or a
multi-piece design, their styles are a great jumping off point for even more
unique ideas.

One thing to remember is that if you are looking for inspiration, to look at
designs that will work on different skin tones. A tattoo that only works on a
light tan or a light brunette, for example, won't look as good on darker skin
tones. Also, if you want to be memorable, it's usually best to choose a tattoo
that only you would want to get.

Women love to look at tattoo designs, and it can be a great way to keep their
own inspiration fresh. Just be sure to use your common sense when picking
designs, and don't get anything you're not sure you want to get forever.

WHAT CALLS TO ME THE MOST.


Kellea Morrison

Grassy plains and fields of wildflowers call to me.




I miss the jagged rows of corn and the sweet lullaby that combines sing in the
summer.




The whistle of the wind through the trees and land for miles and miles does
something for me that nothing else can.




Deer frolicking through the timber and squirrels jumping from branch to branch
put a different kind of smile on my face.











Bean stalks in the fields and cattails in the ditches where the toads croak and
lounge in the water make me miss home.




The hot summer sun shining down on the gravel roads and glinting off the grass
makes me miss who I used to be.

ANNOINTED FOR GREATNESS

THE STORY OF A CLEFT MOTHER’S BRAVERY, IN HER OWN WORDS.


Roy Odyssey
23 June

2615

www.smiletrain.org

Favour, from the city of Port Harcourt, Nigeria, is the mother of Smile Train
patient Annointed. Below, she shares with us her and her family’s journey from
unexpectedly having a child with a cleft to finding the free, lifesaving care
her son needed from a local Smile Train partner.




The first thing I have to tell you is that my husband, Martin, and I loved
Annointed from the moment he was born and knew God has chosen him for a special
purpose in this world. Truthfully, we were also a bit discouraged, too, because
neither of us had ever come across a cleft before. The hospital staff noticed
our concern and told us that his cleft wouldn’t be an issue because there was a
surgical cure for it. Martin and I thought they were only saying this to calm us
down, but when we got home from the hospital, I did my own research online and
found videos on YouTube that let me know they were telling the truth; there
really were remedies.








“He Had Been Crying Profusely And Couldn’t Keep Any Food Down.” Mom Shares Son’s
Healing Journey With Birth Difference, Urges, “Never Give Up On Your Child.”
www.smiletrain.org

However, the videos also showed me that this was no minor procedure. We don’t
have a lot of money and I didn’t know how we would ever afford something like
that. But Martin was supportive and encouraging. He didn’t think it would cost
too much, and anyway, whatever our Annointed needed, we had faith that he would
receive.

It was clear to us that he needed help quickly. I had to express my milk into a
separate container and give it to my baby in a very exact position; if he even
laid down after eating, the food would come out of his nostrils and he would
suffocate because of his cleft. That also meant we could not leave him alone
after feeding. Either his father or I had to be there at all times.

GRIT.

I RECENTLY READ A BOOK TITLED “GETTING GRIT” BY CAROLINE ADAMS MILLER.


Macie Newnam
17h

I recently read a book titled “Getting Grit” by Caroline Adams Miller. The main
focus of the book is about how having perseverance and the patience to pursue
long-term goals is one of the main ways to reach a feeling of success and
overall satisfaction. This book was interesting to me personally because the
author talks about her struggles with bulimia as a young adult and how she was
so focused on achieving this ideal of thinness she had in her head, that
everything else in her life fell on the back burner.



I believe that eating disorders thrive off of stubbornness. Sometimes, there is
a life event that a person goes through that triggers the eating disorder.
Sometimes it comes from a genuine place of wanting to be healthier that ends up
backfiring and becoming an obsession. Sometimes, it comes from the people around
us having disordered habits and making unnecessary comments. No matter where it
stems from, I think there is an element of not wanting to seem weak or “give in”
to food.








Another point that Miller made in the book that stood out to me was how we, as
humans, are so programmed to want instantaneous results. People don’t want to
work as hard for what they have anymore. It is scary to try and fail and that is
why we stay in our comfort zones instead of pursuing what we really want for
ourselves. I think that is why recovery is a multi-step process that involves
many setbacks and requires patience. We want to instantly be better but you have
to put in that hard work in order to see the benefits of recovery.

To fall into the trap of an eating disorder, you usually have a stubborn need to
achieve the goal of being thin, healthy, whatever. Rewiring the brain and using
that grit and perseverance in a healthier way is something that takes a lot of
difficult work on yourself but it is so worth it.

13 WAYS BARBIE MOVIES SHAPED MY CHILDHOOD


MY CHILDHOOD WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN THE SAME WITHOUT THEM.


Taylor Hawk

Denison University

Taylor Hawk

Barbie movies were a huge part of my childhood. I mean huge. If you are like me,
I welcome you to take a healthy dose of nostalgia as I explain how Barbie movies
shaped my childhood. The movies...




1. INFLUENCED MY FASHION SENSE.




I specifically remember begging my grandma to sew me a dress like the one Barbie
wore in "Barbie in the Nutcracker".










2. SPARKED MY CREATIVITY.





I was inspired to tap into my creative side after seeing Barbie's painting
skills in "Barbie as Rapunzel". She was so talented that her paintings were
literally magical.



3. INSPIRED ME TO TAKE BALLET LESSONS.



Ballet was a common theme in Barbie's movies. So, I had my parents sign me up
for ballet classes. These lessons continued for more than a decade, so thanks,
Barbie!



4. ...AND EQUESTRIAN CLASSES.



I wanted to ride a horse as well as Barbie rode a pegasus in "Barbie and the
Magic of Pegasus". But these lessons did not last as long. I quit in two weeks
after being bucked off a pony. So thanks a lot for the false hope, Barbie.









5. MADE ME BELIEVE IT WAS NORMAL TO SING AT ANY GIVEN TIME.



I guess breaking into song in the middle of a supermarket when you're a naive
six year old is not seen as acceptable. So thank you for the delusions, Barbie.



6. CHALLENGED MY AMBITION.




If Barbie could be a painter, ballerina and princess, then why couldn't I?



7. SHOWED ME HOW TO BE COMPASSIONATE.




Barbie was always kind to others and always managed to save the day.


8. DEMONSTRATED THE IMPORTANCE OF FRIENDSHIP.




Barbie and her friends were the original squad goals.



9. ...AND THE IMPORTANCE OF ANIMAL COMPANIONSHIP.




Barbie always had an animal sidekick. I now apologize to my cat for pinning
crowns on her and dancing around the living room while pretending to be in
"Barbie as the Princess and the Pauper".


10. AFFECTED MY PARENTS' PURCHASES.




These purchases included costumes, coloring books, crowns, castles, and even a
life size "Barbie in the Nutcracker" doll. 90 percent of my Christmas and
birthday lists were Barbie-affiliated gifts.



11. TAUGHT ME HOW TO BE CLASSY.




Barbie is hands down one of the classiest ladies out there, no argument needed.









12. SECURED MY BELIEF IN TRUE LOVE.



Can you say power couple?



13. WARNED ME TO NOT TRUST MEN WITH FUNNY HAIR AND/OR EYEBROWS.





This advice has served me well throughout my 18 years.

My childhood would not have been the same without Barbie movies. I owe a lot to
her.

So, who wants to join me in a Barbie movie marathon?

A HOME FOR JUDY

"I WISH I COULD GIVE HER SOMETHING MORE.”


Allison Call
02 July
Liberty University

Allison Call

In the middle of a cold Kentucky winter while most were trying to stay warm,
Judy Cardwell stole a bag of ice from a Kroger in Bowling Green. Police officers
apprehended Judy and charged her with petty theft, but she never served any
time.



Judy, 55, was diagnosed with diabetes a decade ago, and she needs ice to keep
the insulin in her little red and white cooler at a low temperature. The arrest
for stealing ice was a little over a year ago; she’s had 8 diabetic attacks in
just over the 3 years. Getting access to insulin is difficult. If the insulin
she receives from disability is not kept cool, the heat will deactivate the
chemicals and the insulin won’t work.








Judy has been living on the streets for over two decades. Four years ago she met
and started dating her current boyfriend Randy Kalman, a 38-year old Detroit
native and drug user. She credits her much younger boyfriend Randy for her
ability to make it from one day to the next.








“I ain’t got a good body,” says Judy. “I’m sick sometimes but Randy keeps me OK.
He keeps me safe from everybody out here on the street, and there’s some bad
people out here.”

Judy and Randy’s “home” for now is in a trailer in the back of an old semi-truck
that’s been abandoned on EH Harris Lumber Company’s property a few miles from
Riverwalk Park where they used to live.

The owner of EH Lumber Company, Phil Price, lets them stay in the old semi’s
trailer at no cost.

“Just so long as they don’t cause me any trouble I don’t see why they can’t make
their home there,” says Price about the couple living on his company property.

Judy is proud of their little set-up in the trailer. The truck is filled with
cushions that Randy installed to make the place feel more comfortable. There are
wads of old clothes and trash piled around the trailer, inside and outside.








The couple uses a propane tank to keep warm in the winter, and they dress as
sparingly as they can in the summer to endure the heat. Judy says Randy does
everything for them, including collecting and selling scrap metal for money,
finding food, scoring drugs, and even keeping Judy warm when temperatures drop.

“Oh, he keeps me warm,” laughs Judy, who’s sitting cross-legged by the mouth of
the trailer. “He’s like a little heater. He’ll just curl up next to me and I
never even feel the cold.”

Randy putters around the trailer cleaning up bits of trash and stacking cans of
food neatly in the corner. He says he does his best to keep the place safe for
Judy and make the trailer feel like home, but it’s not as easy as it sounds.








“She’ll try to go back and stay in the truck by herself at night without me
there, but I don’t let her,” says Randy. “That’s why I wish I could do something
more for her. I wish I could give her something more.”











Judy and Randy are one of Bowling Green’s most unusual couples. Despite Judy’s
serious medical condition and the couples’ continual use of illicit substances,
she and Randy have managed to survive being homeless for the four years they’ve
been together.

Judy and Randy at Riverwalk ParkAllison Call

Homeless Kentuckians like Judy and Randy struggle every day to find shelter,
fight disease without healthcare, and feed themselves without a steady income.
The number of homeless people in Kentucky has nearly doubled since 2014,
increasing from 2,200 to just under 5,000 in recent surveys. In the homeless
count done by the KHC this past January, Warren County had a total of 72
homeless people in the Barren River area.

Western Kentucky University student Elizabeth Bell, 30, from Dallas, remembers
the summer of 2016 when she first met Judy and Randy who were, at the time,
living in a tent under the bridge in Riverwalk Park. She often visited them to
bring cans of food, clothes and other essentials.








“They’ll tell you ‘we just make it day by day,’” says Elizabeth. “Well, what do
you make it day by day with?”

Brandon Render, the former chair of the Homeless and Housing Coalition of South
Central Kentucky, a collection of community partners that work with homelessness
and housing, believes it’s the fault of the city that couples like Judy and
Randy end up on the streets.

“We tried to influence housing policy at the local level and advocate for
low-income families,” says Render.








Render was responsible for coordinating programs like the Room in the Inn Winter
Shelter Program, which partners with church congregations during the winter
months to provide emergency shelter services for those living on the streets.

There are homeless housing programs in Bowling Green and the state of Kentucky
that cater to the homeless population. Judy and Randy spent a good bit of time
going to these shelters that offer beds and food and even extended stay
programs.

Salvation Army head Captain Phillip John Winter helps hundreds of homeless
residents like Judy and Randy in the Bowling Green area every year. The
Salvation Army shelter is a 75-bed shelter with six family units and 12-night
emergency programs. If residents want to stay longer they have to be looking for
work.

“Not everyone that comes is homeless, some are just low-income,” says Winter.

Over 1,000 people stay at the shelter and over 60,000 meals are served annually.



Judy and Randy spend a cold, March morning scavenging for scrap metal and
picking up trash before rendezvousing at the bridge in Riverwalk Park. The
bridge is sentimental to them because it provided them shelter, and it acts as
their headquarters throughout the day. Judy, with her shopping cart, meets
Randy, with his giant blue dumpster, after a successful day of collecting trash
and scraps.








Randy and Judy pull their carts up a dark road.Allison Call

Randy’s dumpster is filled with pieces of wire and other metals. He and Judy
head to an old motel on the strip to find some more scraps before they eat
dinner. Behind the motel, Randy hops into a green dumpster and starts looking
for anything of value.

Judy can’t climb. She’s too weak. So she just watches Randy from the road.

“He’s like a little monkey,” says Judy. “Jump in, jump out!”

Randy sometimes spends the entire night scavenging around town for metal. He
takes the steel, aluminum, brass, copper and other metals that finds to scrap
yards and sells them for as much money as he can get. Randy will fill three or
four garbage bags full of insulated or copper wire, or even brass, before the
day is over.

With a dismal look on his face, Randy comes running up and tosses a few metal
screws into his little, blue dumpster. His dive wasn’t very successful but any
amount of metal means some amount of money.

“Made $56 the other day. It’s a lot of money for just a little bit of metal,”
says Randy.

Randy says that if he doesn’t make small repairs on damaged pieces of metal
before turning them in to the scrap yard, he won’t make a good profit.

“If you don’t cut off the end part of the wire, they won’t give you as much for
it. They call it a dirty wire.”

Randy pushes his dumpster up the sidewalk, around a corner, and down a side
street as Judy follows behind.

“Well we do this pretty much every day,” Randy says. “All day we do this. Some
people got to survive and live too.”

Randy says his parents kicked him out when he was 14 after they found out he was
smoking pot. Judy says Randy has six kids with different women, but he never
sees them.

“Don’t you honey? You got six kids?” Judy turns back looking for confirmation
from Randy. Randy nods.

Judy and Randy met at a shelter in town and “fell for each other” almost
immediately. The couple doesn’t seem to mind the 15-year difference in age.
Randy has asked Judy to marry him, but she’s reluctant because her last two
marriages failed.

“I love him to death and he loves me, and see I’m jealous,” says Judy.

Judy and Randy have both had it rough, which is why they say they made such a
connection.

Judy especially has had her share of heartbreak. When she was just 6 years old,
her father shot her in the stomach with his shotgun.

In 1968, Judy lived in a small house in Bowling Green with her mother and
step-father. One afternoon, her stepfather Henry and her father Bill got into a
heated argument over money while Judy hid in the backseat of Bill’s car.

Judy recalls hearing them yelling, and she peeked out of the back of the car
only to see her father holding a shotgun. She heard the trunk creak open, the
men’s voices still biting at her through the hot summer air. In fear, Judy’s
stepmother ran in the other direction toward the back of the house along the
untrimmed hedges.

Henry tried to make Bill stop and listen, but he refused, and in that moment
Judy’s stepmother tripped and hit the ground hard before letting out a
gut-wrenching cry. Bill cursed and threw the gun angrily into the trunk.

The next noise was the sound of a loud firecracker, followed by a silent ring
that permeated everyone’s ears. The gun had gone off inside the trunk and the
shell had blown a hole through the backseat and right through Judy’s stomach,
she says. Her intestines were showing and Judy was screaming.

Bill rushed Judy to the hospital immediately, and doctors were able to save
Judy’s life. Police took Judy’s father to jail but he was released five hours
later, she says.

Judy currently gets $660 a month from disability because of her injury as a
child, and she and Randy say they use a lot of the money to buy drugs. She
carries trinkets like a hairbrush and pictures of family around with her because
it brings back memories.

Judy was married twice, for the first time at 15. She dropped out of school in
the eighth grade following in the footsteps of most of her other nine brothers
and sisters.

She doesn’t stay in contact with her family anymore, but claims that if her
father Bill were still alive today he would never have let her or Randy become
homeless.

Randy’s father is still alive but isn’t around either. Randy says his father had
32 children, most of them by different women. Judy claims her father had just as
many children if not more, and Judy herself was named after one of the women
that her father had an affair and some children with.

She says her daddy cried every single night because he felt guilty for shooting
her.

“If he was here, he’d be right here with us,” she says. “He’d make sure we had a
place. We would not be homeless.”



Bowling Green resident and non-profit volunteer Shelly Adwell, 47, has worked
for homeless shelters for years and spends most of her days working with
homeless Kentuckians. She believes people get the wrong impression of the
homeless, especially because the media and the upper class paint a false picture
of them.


“I have seen multiple people on streets homeless get jobs and homes and none of
the homeless people I help has ever asked for anything,” says Adwell.

Adwell says panhandlers are usually not homeless. Other non-profit workers like
Adwell feel that it is panhandlers that create a negative image of people on the
street, since, in her opinion, homeless people rarely practice pan handling. She
says people should know the difference between the two primarily so they
understand the homeless community more clearly.

Ronnie Ward, public information officer for the Bowling Green Police Department,
says that when people commit crimes they’re not identified on police reports as
homeless. They either put a home address or they don’t.

So there’s no accurate police report stat that tells how many homeless people
with criminal records actually live in Warren County. Ward, however, says that
along with the inability to document homeless people within the county, there is
lost some accountability for others who aren’t aware of the issue.

“When people talk about the homeless population they think of people sleeping on
the street corner but there’s a stigma that goes with that,” he says.



Judy and Randy head to the local Kroger downtown. The sun has started to set and
Randy needs to change into something warmer.

At this very same Kroger eight months ago, Judy had a very bad diabetic attack.
She collapsed on the bench outside the door leaving Randy feeling helpless. He
slapped her several times to keep her from passing out and gave her a shot of
insulin.

While waiting for Randy, Judy pushes her cart along the outside front of the
store past the vending machines and all the shiny new grills and patio furniture
for sale.

She catches the side of the cart on a lawn chair and struggles to free the metal
basket from the chair’s leg. The racket brings an enormous amount of attention
to her. Everyone suddenly notices the haggard looking homeless woman bundled up
in a tattered, gray coat and pushing a shopping cart filled with scrap metal and
baseball bats.

Judy parks her cart right outside the grocery-side door, almost running into a
man exiting the store. The newly-bought pack of Belgian White Blue Moon beer in
his hand rattles when he detours out of Judy’s way. He shoots her a condemning
look and keeps on going.

She doesn’t seem to notice anyone’s behavior. Neither she nor Randy appear to
notice or care if anyone looks at them strangely.

A woman smoking a cigarette on the other side of the Kroger entrance catches
Judy’s eye. The woman flicks the cigarette to the ground and walks inside.

“That makes me mad,” says Judy, eyes downcast on the cigarette butt.

She points to the smokers’ receptacle with an exasperated look on her face:
“There’s a thing by the door. I don’t know why they don’t use it.”

Inside, Randy changes out of his black basketball shorts into a pair of worn
jeans and an indigo windbreaker. He splashes some sink water on his hair and
slicks it back before covering it with his Spurs baseball cap. He takes one last
look in the mirror, grabs his belt off the counter, and loops it through his
jeans.

He leaves the bathroom with an air of confidence after cleaning himself up,
sporting a pleasant grin as he heads toward the exit. A man in line at one of
the registers spots Randy as he passes by.

“Hey, isn’t that the homeless guy that’s always pushing that cart?” says a man
at the checkout, speaking to his friend and pointing at Randy.

Randy looks back at the man and his smile fades but he says nothing and keeps on
going.

Outside, Judy is telling another story about a diabetic attack she had in the
middle of a field.

“Randy had to set me on a tractor, didn’t you?” says Judy, turning to Randy who
is walking toward her and buckling his belt.

“Old-timer’s,” Randy says with a laugh.

Judy and Randy share a moment outside a local Kroger.Allison Call

An opinion article that came out in The Bowling Green Daily News last year all
but demonized the panhandlers that come around Fountain Square Park downtown.
The article advised non-homeless residents to avoid humoring the panhandlers
with donations of any kind.

Sharli Rogers, a member of the homeless and housing coalition of Southcentral
Kentucky, says communities often close their eyes to the homeless issues in
their towns.

“Sometimes the homeless in our community are folks that we don’t often see,” she
says. “We don’t really realize how many homeless folks there are.”

Judy and Randy walk to Jumbo China Buffet on Campbell Lane and fill up two
plates each of food before sitting in a corner table in the restaurant.

Everyone staring at them. A family a few tables away keep looking over their
shoulders at them with dissenting glares. Judy and Randy don’t seem like they
notice people staring. Randy is too distracted trying to get Judy settled and
comfortable at the table.

“We both love chicken,” says Judy sitting down. Judy doesn’t have bottom teeth
but she still always gets frog legs. It’s one of their favorite dishes at
Chinese restaurants. Randy says his daughter turned him onto them.

Randy suddenly pulls two butters and three sour cream packets out of his pocket
and hands them to Judy.

“I forgot I got these for you over there,” Randy laughs before digging into his
own plate of food.

“We have fun together,” says Judy. “I watch him when he walks and twists his
little skinny butt,” she laughs and takes a large bite of her frog legs.

Randy laughs too and licks his lips and flicks the pom-pon on Judy’s toboggan.

Randy leaves to get more food and Judy pulls out several tiny photo albums from
the black bag Randy had brought in. Judy calls it her “Junk Bag.”

“Randy says I got too much junk,” she says.

The album is filled with photos of all of her nieces and nephews. Almost all of
them are grown now and most of them have children of their own, children Judy
hardly ever sees. The first picture Judy pulls out is a photo of her first
husband’s child, Charles.

Then Judy flashes a picture of her second husband’s son, Noah, that she keeps in
a tiny gold picture frame. Then a hairbrush that belonged to her dead sister.
Then a picture of her grandmother. Then of her stepfather, Henry Clay, and her
own father, Bill Martin, sitting on a yellow flowered couch together.

Randy comes back to the table and sits down and Judy leaves to go get more food.
While Judy’s gone, Randy can’t help but talk about life on the street.

“It’s not real bad being homeless,” says Randy. “People look at you and start
laughing at you. I think homeless people can work and that makes them lazy. It
does hurt but what hurts more is not being with someone that they really care
about. I should be doing more to get us a home,” says Randy.

Randy says he doesn’t ask Judy to do much. She sick and he knows that. He says
she needs a home more than he does and it makes him feel bad that he’s not doing
enough for her. Randy says his buddy is asking his landlord if they can get the
apartment next-door and work to pay for it. He says he has a good feeling he’ll
get the apartment.

Randy smiles at Judy in a restaurant.Allison Call

Some of his mint chocolate chip ice cream jumps onto the table, and he grabs a
napkin.

“I want to get a home for Judy as a surprise,” says Randy, wiping up the puddle
of melted ice cream.

He says he knows how to do concrete work and is hoping he can get a job doing
that. Judy comes back to the table and opens her fortune cookie.

It reads: “there is someone owing so many thanks to you.”

“Those things ain’t true,” says Randy.

“But why wouldn’t they be true if they give them to you?” Judy asks.

“Wise men avoid troubles while fools search for them,” says Randy, throwing his
unopened fortune cookie on a dirty plate and handing it to the waiter.
