I still cry daily,whats worse,I have 3 or 4 change of clothing to my name,people just dont understand,yet others will open there arms,and those are hard to find. I love helping others,and would never hurt those around me,because you never know when your footsteps may find a hole in the ground and you might stumble and fall,and its soooo very hard to find your way out. God bless your dad for sharing this with you,and if you get a chance,pray for me,sometimes Im so far deep in that hole,I never think Ill get out.
hugs to you!

I understand.. I lost everything a couple years ago in a fire, I own one pair of jeans, if it weren't for my work uniforms most days i'd be wearing the same things. since my dad took the house back, 3 months of renting put me so far behind that i had to give up the house, i'll now be living in an RV on my mothers property, and she hasn't let me forget just how generous she's being ever since i was parked there. I work my ass off, at this time i have one full time job and 4 part times. with my kids way for the summer i'm trying so hard to get caught up. I'M JUST SO SICK OF BEING TIRED.. I have 3 boys, and the only aid i qualify for is medical.. AND I THANK GOD FOR THAT.. I'm just so tired of having a hard time getting appts. cause drs around here only take so many medicaid patients a day. My youngest almost failed 2nd grade cause it took me me almost 2 weeks to get him into a dr HE WAS RUNNING A 104 FEVER.. and his primary care would approve the ER. took him anyway, so i'll probably end up making payments on that bill, not what i needed but he couldn't help being sick and i'll get it paid eventually.

I'M JUST SO SICK OF BEING A FAILURE!!!!!

You are not a failure. Someone who is working as your are is not a failure.

I bit my tounge and said no Visa she was like oh and I said I know I look like heck but I have been taking care of a sick kid I am running on no sleep and you really shouldnt judge a book by its cover I just got off a 50 hour work week.

She just stammered and my hubby asked why didnt you rip her a new one? I said because if someone was behind me who was in dire need and using an EBT card I didnt want them to feel like crap.

That was wrong of her to think that because not all people who get food stamps look like crap either.

You are NOT a failure!!!!! You have hit a very rough patch, but you are strong & resilient. You will come out of this & be an even stronger example for your children to admire & follow.
That being said, after you get caught up, can you stay on your mom's property a little longer, so you can actually get a little $$ saved up. This way you have something for a rainy day?
I will continue to lift you up in my prayers.
