I've worked my entire life. I raised 3 daughters alone. 19 years I've been a single mom. And I've done it successfully. Until 1 1/2 year ago. I took on a "better" job that ended up being a huge mistake. My dad died and I did what I needed to do to go home for the funeral. Sadly, that consisted of taking out a huge title loan and writing check loans. The interest alone was more than my paychecks. Hence, homeless after 10 months of fighting to keep our home. And here we sit. 8 months later. I have fibromyalgia. I am working with Voc-Rehab to retrain for a position that I can physically handle. I am in the middle of bankruptcy, which is a good thing. The medical bills were outrageous from mine as well as from two special needs children that are now adults. I have a sweet, intelligent, wise and talented 10 year old still with me. She is the reason I get up in the morning and the only reason I keep fighting. She rocks my world.
Things are finally starting to break for us. I figure in January, we will be able to get into some low-income housing until we can get better established and move out of that at that point. I'm not a quitter and we will get back on our feet.
It's this month that is killing me. I've had expenses that could not wait and had to rob peter to pay paul and jane to pay them so to speak. My storage rental and title loan are past due. They gave me a tiny bit of time. The title loan gave me a week (REALLY running out of time on that one as the week is almost up) and the storage rental place gave me until Dec. 27th. I DESPERATELY need help getting these two bills taken care of, so please... my children understand that Christmas is going to be a one gift kinda thing and they are ok with that. Our focus is getting out of the shelter. Any amount you can spare, even if it's only a dollar or two would be helpful. I can't lose everything me and mine own and I really need to keep my vehicle. My daughter has doctors appts all the time and, well, frankly so do I. Plus there is so much to do with apartment hunting and voc-rehab and all her different activities... I'm trying not to flip out and be faithful that somehow, someway this will work out. I just don't see how though. So please... consider us. Thank you.
