crying
The place I went to work for has gone out of business. Again I'm running around looking for a job. I got so frustrated because everytime I would pick up the jobs section of the news paper I would see, RN needed, LPN needed, MT needed, and all kinds of things for health care so I ran to the University and said I want to become a nurse. I enrolled and started classes 2 weeks ago, but the student loans I received wasn't enough to cover the cost of my books at all. I had to borrow it from my grandmother which I so dislike doing because she's family, but still in the meantime I'm unable to find a part time job.
I will graduate in two years as long as I study hard and keep my grades up. I shouldn't have got a degree in ART before, but I still love it. I am frustrated. I mean really? McDonalds is full? I have put up fliers saying I'll clean people's houses, run errands for them, go to the grocery store to pick up their food, anything, but nothing so far. Been to the flea markets to sell my things, first day earned $7. The second day was $13. So for 2 days work, I earned $20 which is better than nothing, but it went quickly for toothpaste, toilet paper, soap, and shampoo, and the rest went in my tank for gas.
Maybe I will sound like a baby right now, but really I just feel like crying. I feel as if everything is falling apart. My oldest daughter is a senior in high school, she needs money for spanish club, band, and her senior pictures. My youngest daughter so far only needs the necessities; thank goodness. I have to pay the rent, medical bills, car insurance, utilities, and gas to go back and forth to school. I know that eventually everything will get better, but I'm massively stressed. I get headaches, my neck stiffens as if I've pulled a muscle, I can't eat as I use to as it just comes back up, and sleep is something I miss.
Seriously?! McDonalds anad Burger King and Wendy's and Arby's and Hardee's, etc... are full??? That jus blows my mind. I would be perfectly happy with just part time. I'm in school anyway, but I can work night shifts full time.
Instead of being in art exhibitions, maybe I should try to sell all my work on ebay. It beats waiting around for a year when my area has 1 and I sell 2 or 3 pieces that bring in around $1000 to $1500. Would be alot if I could do that every month instead of once a year.
Any suggestions out there? I'm open for ideas.
I am sitting here looking every where so I can get help with christmas. I can't seem to get anyone to direct me in the right direction. Everything just feels hopeless. I feel like screaming. I am a mother of 5. Two of them no longer live at home and are in the United States Army. The last 2 years have been a nightmare for my family. I can't keep up with the bills. I have to decide on a daily basis whether or not to buy food or pay a bill. Right now I have no money to buy food or pay any bills. I am so tired and stressed about trying to keep up. I have nothing for my children and the way it seems thats how it might stay. Soon I might not be able to get gas for my home. They refuse to give me anymore until the bill is paid. Wow! I can't get help from the government as they claim my husband makes to much money. I CANT lose my home. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. I want my children to have a christmas. Last christmas my children only recieved a few gifts and I felt aweful. The older 2 received nothing from me. I can live with that, but I cant deal with the thought the younger ones will go without all together. I know that there are people out there that have less than me and I probably should be greatful that I have my family. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you. My email address is bbhicok@hotmail.com. I live in NYS.
PLEASE HELP - NEED AN ANGELPLEASE HELP!
I was a local small business owner for several years in a business who's purpose was to bring hope to others through fundraisers and to bring the gift of laughter through comedy entertainment. The business was very successful for several years until a series of events the final two years of existance. The business was forced to relocate three times in one year - causing me to lose everything I had - my home, my income, my teeth, literally everything. To make things more difficult it came to light after the business was closed in August 2007 that my former business partner and CFO of the company didn't pay state/fed taxes since the last quarter of 2005. As the president of the company I am personally liable for her failure to pay. I was forced into homelessness in January of this year and wasn't able to scrape enough together to rent a small apartment until May. I have a job with a local school district, but am laid off in the summer - I didn't find out I was not able to collect any unemployment benifits becuase my job is seasonal. I have been searching for a new position to support myself but have had no luck at all at this point. I am being treated for chronic severe depression, as well as three herniated discs and other health issues that I can't afford to address - and have no where to turn. The loss of the business and it's residual affects has made living this life a struggle. This is truly my last hope. Please, help me stay in my home. I am trying to raise $3,000.00 to get through the summer until I can get back to work at the school district or am able to secure a year round position, whichever comes first. All I ever wanted to do was to make people laugh, bring them hope and I did. Now I am looking for someone, anyone, who would be willing to help me. I am at a point of totally giving up this very devastating situation. This is my last call for help. Please - anyone. I will disclose who I am to the angel who is sincerely willing/able to help me. This has been such a humiliating time of my existence - I don't need to have my name thrown into the public eye when it used to have such impact on the community. I am already so humiliated it is all I can do to ask - beg - as it is. |
we are a homsless couple and are disabled and have noincome to livewe are trying to get SSI but havn,t yet and need help to live. we are about to giveup as seems noone cares so what do we do to get the things we need? WE hope and pray someone will help real soon or willbe to late I think thankyou.

BELOW ARE SOME LAWS THAT I HAVE FOUND ON THE INTERNET. PLEASE READ THROUGH AS THERE ARE SO MANY OF THEM THAT WERE BROKEN ON MY CHILDREN'S AND MY BEHALF
NICHOLSON V. SCOPPETTA (CASE) A DISTRICT COURT FOUND IN 2002... BY PLACEING CHILDREN, ROUTINELY VOILATED THE RIGHTS OF MOTHERS WHOSE ONLY CRIME HAD BEEN TO BE BEATEN BY THEIR HUSBAND OR LOVER.

FORCED MENTAL HEALTH EVALUATIONS YOU WHO ARE GOING THROUGH CPS TRAUMA AND FAMILY INTERFERENCE SHOULD KNOW BETTER THAN ANYONE THAT MANDATED, FORCED MENTAL HEALTH EVALUATION IS AN INTRUSIVE, DISTRESSING PROCESS.

PEOPLE WHO TRULY NEED MENTAL HEALTH SERVICES HAVE A WAY OF IDENTIFYING THEMSELVES AND THEY ARE ALREADY GETTING SERVICES. FORCED MENTAL HELATH EVALUATIONS AND FORCED MEDICATIONS ARE NOT NEEDED FOR EVERY CHILD AND ADULT IN THE U.S. POPULATION. THIS IS ABOUT GOVERNMENT CONTROL, NOT ABOUT "HELPING" AND NOT ABOUT FREEDOM.

CPS CAN NOT DO ANYTHING WITH OUT YOUR APPROVAL!!!! DECISION OF THE 7TH CIRCUIT COURT OF APPEALS FOUND THAT THIS PRACTICE, I.E. THE "NO PRIOR CONSENT" INTERVIEW OF A CHILD, WILL ORDINARILY CONSTITUTE A "CLEAR VIOLATION" OF THE CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS OF PARENTS UNDER THE 4TH AND 14TH AMENDMENTS TO THE US CONSTITUITOIN. ACCORDING TO THE COURT, THE INVESTIGATIVE INTERVIEW OF A CHILD CONSTITUTES A "SEARCH AND SEIZURE" AND WHEN CONDUCTED ON PRIVATE PROPERTY WITHOUT "CONSENT, A WARRANT, PROBABLE CAUSE OR EXIGENT CIRCUMSTANCES," SUCH AN INTERVIEW IS AN UNREASONABLE SEARCH AND SEIZURE IN VIOLATION OF THE RIGHTS OF THE PARENT, CHILD AND POSSIBLY THE OWNER OF THE PRIVATE PROPERTY."
