Thank You to those about to read my story. I recently found a few sites about online begging and decided to check them out, I hadn't thought about even asking for help until I seen others asking, so here's my page. I am a soul support mom of 4 beautiful children. living in a new city and was starting to take control of our lives after a very abusive marriage, I worked hard to get a house a good job and keep my children accustomed to the things they had before. (I spolied them to make up for only having one parent, a mistake I realize now). I lost my Job in the fall of 2002 due to downsizing of the company I worked for. I owe $9,000.00 in bills (half of it for tuition) sent my eldest to college $4500.00 on charge cards instead of letting him take student loans out in his name. I used to make $2300.00 a month gross at my old position. I now work full and part time making about $1200 net.. my rent is $900.00, utilities about $150.00 a month, cable, internet, phone, bus pass and insurance another $150.00 thats my pay gone. my suppliments are $600.00 a month, $300.00 of that pays the credit cards, I accumulated while I working at a job I thought would last forever :(. the $300.00 I have left pays for food and thats it. I also take contract work from offices, typing etc to get a little extra, My son works p/t when he isn't in school, and buys groceries, (i'd rather him help that way than have him pay rent. my 14 year old helps out by watching the two youngest (ages 6 and 9) before and after school.. therefore I don't have the extra cost of childcare to worry about. (she gets bus pass each month from me , she does this for a small allowance that my son said he'd give her. I'd like to get these debts paid off so I can have a little extra for my children. My ex-husband is one of those deadbeat parents.. he hasn;t paid the court ordered child support of 700 a month in 3 years let alone call our children. What I am asking of you the kind hearted who read this is to take 50 cents, 75 cents even 1 dollar and help my family out. I wish to thank one and all and god bless (((HUGS))) |
