I was an Ultrasound Tech for over 10 years and I left my career to work with my mom. It gave me much more flexibility to take my kids to and from school and be with them when they were sick.

I unfortunately got let go due to personal reasons. I hated working a 9-5 so much more after having the new flexibility, so I tried to find a job working from home. I tried insurance and quickly realized that it wasn’t for me.

So, I went on to try digital marketing and e-commerce, which I’m still working on now. It, however, has not shown results yet. For all of this time, we’ve been having to live on my husband’s income only for a family of 6.

I would like to raise money to be able to run ads to finally get my business going but with rising bills and other expenses such as daycare, it’s seemingly impossible.

I’m asking for $7,000 to get my business going and help pay my bills in the meantime. I would be eternally grateful for this kind act. Thanks in advance.

My name is Melanie. I am a generally happy person, but pretty quiet, too.

I am 49, I teach English, and I live in Florida with my tiny Morkie (Maltese-Yorkie).

https://paypal.me/journeytobeautiful74?country.x=US&locale.x=en_US

I successfully raised three incredible kids who are now three fabulous young adults who love each other, their momma, and everyone else, too, lol. My middle says that when he is wealthy, he is going to buy his momma a house and a car, and I will never have to work again! This is wonderful news! :) I’m not sure how much the Coast Guard pays, but my guess is that I will have a bit of a wait until he can make good on that promise. ;)

In the meantime, momma has to make ends meet. Problem is, I can’t seem to find the ends to put them together. I moved two hours away from my family in order to be able to live on my teaching salary, but when my pay went up a thousand dollars a year, my tax bracket went up to nearly a quarter of my income (!!).

After having been married to a non-working, drug-addicted man for twenty years (and trying so, so hard to help him and make it work), I finally had to admit defeat, and we left – but not before my finances and credit were completely devastated. I don’t feel sorry for myself – I chose to stay because I felt it was the right thing to do. But hindsight is 20/20. The positives are that my kids are well-versed in compassion, empathy, and loving a person in spite of their flaws, and they want absolutely nothing to do with substances of any kind. The negatives are that they never got to see what a healthy marriage or father/child relationship look like, and that here I am at 49, starting over.

I work hard – I teach all day, and then I Door-dash in the evenings and on weekends. I spend nearly nothing, except for what is necessary, and I try to help my kids when I can, but usually I can’t – and it breaks my heart.

The most heart-breaking of all of it for me is the car. Let me explain:

When my oldest turned 17, he had saved up enough for a down-payment on his own car. Mine was paid-for, so I took out an auto loan for him in my name, and he made the payments, faithfully. Not long after that, I was rear-ended by a man going 60 mph (I was at a dead stop), and he totaled my car. Insurance, of course, did not give me nearly enough to replace the kind of vehicle I had (a mini-van), so I ended up with a $4k beater that lasted a couple of years and then went completely kaput. I ended up having to finance a vehicle, which I hated to do, but I had to be able to get to work. Problem was, they wouldn’t give me a loan for another car because I already had one for my son’s car, unless he co-signed with me, showing a need for two vehicles. By then, he was 19 and a year away from paying off his car; so we went ahead and did that. Meanwhile, the accident had caused a disk herniation that finally broke off, got tangled in my sciatic nerve, and landed me in surgery and a long recovery. This, of course, put me behind financially. I wrote lesson plans and graded papers from home, but since I wasn’t actually present, I wasn’t paid until I went back.

Fast-forward to this past year, and I have had issue after issue, including a hospital stay where I was diagnosed with seizures (??). Not having enough PTO accrued, my pay was docked for the hospital stay. Between that and barely making enough to live, I fell behind on car payments, and it has now hurt my oldest child’s credit. The fact that my loan is attached to him also kills his debt-to-income ratio, because he is a college student working at Starbucks. Right now, he has nearly $22k in debt on my behalf, after having responsibly paid off his own car.

I am up to my eyeballs in debt, with student loans I had to defer for years while I was raising kids and the sole household income, and every time I turn around, something else breaks or wears out and has to be replaced. I am nearly at my wits’ end and can’t see a way up and out, in spite of working nearly every hour of every day.

I want to go back and get my masters degree in clinical social work, which is actually what I am made for, but in spite of applying for tons of grants and scholarships, I haven’t gotten there yet. My heart is for the kids who have nobody – my favorite teaching job was in a teen boys’ high-security detention center, where I was able to reach kids that believed nobody cared anymore and give them hope and tools and opportunities and a belief that their lives could be different.

There is just so much I want to do – but I feel so stuck, and stalled at every turn because of financial strain I cannot get out from under.

I owe $19k in student debt.

I (and my son) owe $22k on an auto loan (which they refuse to refinance in my name only – believe me, I’ve asked.)

I owe $11k on a personal loan from my divorce.

I owe who-knows-how-much in medical bills – I haven’t even added all of that up yet.

Writing it all out and looking at it is making me ill…

Help would be like a breath of fresh air – just to be able to breath and see hope and not feel so heavy with this mountain of debt, and so responsible for my oldest son’s credit, because it is absolutely not his fault. That one kills me.

There is so much more… I am a writer, I blog (for family and friends), I love people, I believe everyone is precious and valuable, and I wish there was some way to show them and convince them of their worth. I want to see families treating each other right, husbands loving their wives well, wives affirming and adoring their husbands, couples working as a team to raise the next generation with confidence and dignity and compassion and empathy… I want to do so much. And I just feel stuck, with no end in sight to this day-in and day-out effort and grind of trying to catch up.

So that’s my story in a nutshell, and I would love and appreciate for someone to help in any way they can. Many thanks, and if anything, thank you for taking time to read. That alone makes you kind!

With love and warmest regards,

Melanie

Hello and thank you for taking the time to read this. So at the end of last August my wife and son went to see family in her home country  of Ethiopia. Soon after my grandmother became very ill to which we found out was a spreading cancer that ending up taking her life at the end of the year to which it has been one year today (Dec 30) as I write this. After she passed I fell into a great depression. She was one of the best people I knew, my biggest cheerleader, and was just always there. We had been living together with my wife and son. With everyone gone I had to find a new place to live. I managed to do so and didn’t have problems for the first few months. Then one of my jobs stopped scheduling me for no reason and the other cut my hours down so I started losing income. I ended up finding a new job, but the hours there are not enough to get me where I need at the moment. Then I started to borrow from lending companies and credit cards to help, but I ended up falling behind on payments because I didn’t have enough money coming in. So now my credit score is dwindling down from what was a decent score to very poor. My debt is climbing. My stress is also climbing. My car was also hit recently while it was parked so the power steering isn’t working and it’s a car that’s computer reliant so it doesn’t have power steering. So I have to get that fixed along with new tires, inspection, and registration. My wife and son are wanting to come home now. Other than not having money to sustain myself currently I also have to pay for their flight home which is a couple grand at least. I don’t know if I will be able to pay my rent this month and I am also ending the year with Covid currently so this year has been tough. I think if I get between $25,000 and $50,000 I can stabilize my situation and my debt. Thank you again for reading this at the very least. $LoganH1989 is my cashapp.

1. Over the last few years I felt like I’ve been drowning from trying to pay my bills. I have been working tirelessly in the education field working paycheck to paycheck and struggling to make ends meet. I make $1,400 biweekly. I pay for my car, daycare, our home, groceries…and due to this all piling on I found myself just adding to the credit card debt. It’s put myself into such a bad place of feeling like I can’t get out of it. I owe 13k on one card, 8 k on another, my car loan has about 13k left, and a student loan of 8k left.  I’m losing sleep at night worrying about money. I want to focus on my child and our future and not be stuck on the present stress. Everything keeps going up in cost and I feel like I’m never going to come out of this. I don’t understand how it is that I work so much and have so little to show for it. Anything at will be so helpful.

Hello, my name is Keelee Hudson. I am 38 yrs old, and I’m starting over for the 4th time in my life. I didn’t realize my mental/emotional issues in life stemmed from my childhood until 2018. After my kids dad beat me up pretty badly I realized I needed to fix something within myself before I could be a productive citizen of society. By the end of 2018 I had begun to develop agoraphobia from deep shame and unworthiness. By the end of 2019 I was overcome by agoraphobia. I lost my car and my apartment by Aug. of 2020. I was a complete wreck at this point. A “friend” from high school offered to fly me across the country, to California, to help me. As soon as I got off of the plane I realized something was off. When we got to his apartment it was clear that he wanted me to sleep with him in exchange for room and board. I was so very broken and I just couldn’t, so I offered to do all the cooking/cleaning and running errands while I worked on establishing myself in California. Things just increasingly got more and more uncomfortable, he was extremely emotionally and mentally abusive. I was there for a year, and I was able to successfully start CBT therapy, EMDR therapy, get a Life Coach, as well as, get my California DL, ID, health insurance and food stamps. I left and he threw away most of my belongings. I stayed in 3 different shelters for 2 years. I continued my therapy, as well as taking care of my physical health. I explored California in order to work on facing my agoraphobia. Learning to navigate the world independently vs codependently was very difficult, but rewarding. I was taken out of the shelter system March 2023, and I immediately enrolled into the local community college. I will be graduating Spring of 2024. I have 2 young daughter’s who I plan to bring to California in the Summer. I really need help paying off my dental bills. I need to pay off my braces and my dental implant which is about $8,000.00. I also need help with a car so I can get a job after I graduate, and I need a car for my children. I would also appreciate help with clothes for when I graduate. My CashApp is $KeeleeHudson
Thank you so much for reading, Keelee Hudson.

My name is Mickey.  I am a 70 year old disabled woman. I’ve had some very hard times over the last 6 years.  I have had to bury 2 children. I was kicked out of my husband’s house. He preferred younger women. Fortunately I had credit cards to pay the movers $4400 and I moved from eastern NC to western NC which I loved.

The landlady of the house later decided that repairs to the house were my responsibility which went on my credit cards to the tune of $46oo.  I fell in the shower and knocked almost all of my teeth out. I had some insurance but I had to charge $5000 on my credit cards.  That was just for the upper teeth.

After 3 years she wanted to sell the house and I had to move again during the gas shortage in 2022. The cost of the move plus gas this time was $7400.

I moved in with a friend back in eastern NC.  My belongings had to go into storage. That was $140/m0 for 6 months. ($840) Ten days later she said I couldn’t stay there because her daughter and family had been evicted from their apartment and had to move in with her and I had to go.  I couldn’t find an apartment that I could afford.  I had to live in the back of my truck in the Walmart parking lot for 5 months and ate at McDonald’s twice a day.

There was still nothing available that I could afford. I finally found an old house in Frostburg MD for $400 plus the utilities which were $350/mo plus paid for weekly mowing at $40/wk. Moving costs were $$3,520. Then the owner died several months ago.  His family is going to sell the house.  They have to wait until the end of March so that any creditors can submit bills to be paid from the estate.

I have found a small apartment that are for seniors. There is a short waiting list but I just don’t know when it’ll be my turn.  I can pay the first months’ rent of $700 and I may be able to come up with the security deposit which is the same amount but I won’t be able to pay the movers which should also be about $700. If there’s no opening before the end of March I’ll be living in my truck again.

I can pay my monthly bills but all of these other costs I never expected have gone on my credit cards to the tune of just under $26000.  I had turned some of them over to a company called Beyonce Finance.  Another rip off.  They get the creditor to take less and then they charge me excessive fees.  In over 6 months they have paid the credit card companies next to nothing! They say it’s my fault because I’m not giving them enough money to negotiate with the creditor. I pay them $500/mo. and I can’t keep doing that.

I lay in bed praying for a solution. I end up crying myself to sleep. If anyone can help me with that debt I would be so grateful and I can just have some peace for however long I live.

I seem to be working all of the time and still am struggling to put food on the table and pay the bills. The cost of living is so high here in the town where i grew up and with inflation I can even afford to have a reliable vehicle as well as the fact that ive had two catastrophic engine failures in two years, got scammed for 4k on a suburban i bought that was supposed to run but didn’t, as well as totaled my girlfriends car a week after my birthday.. and one day after her father passed away. That was and still is very difficult for her as she has no other family besides me now.  We were living in a motel at this time last year while awaiting a rental to open up as there is a housing crisis currently here in Colorado due to the mass growth in population. It would be a blessing to have some help financially to be able to have warm enough clothes for the winter, or even just take my girlfriend on a simple date like she deserves. My father is a great man and he just had to move out for not being able to pay rent because his arthritis has gotten so bad he can hardly work anymore. He just lost his best friend(his dog) He is now living with my girlfriend and myself. I dont have any credit to get a loan because of medical debt from when i almost died from severe pancreantitis when i was 20. I just turned 28 and work my butt off. I sell firewood and do snow removal as well as remodel jobs, etc. Im trying to start my own tree removal business but have been limited with what i can do as far as affording the proper equipment and insurance. I am an honest hardworking individual who just wants some stability in life, help my family, and most of all… have some peace of mind… which i havent had since my father lost his house after the 2008 reccession. If i could just get caught up and ahead just enough to where i could start my business and not live paycheck to paycheck… i could really make a difference in my community. We recently had a massive forrest fire that caused a lot of damage. There are still so many trees that are dead from the pine beetle infestation that cause a hazard to homes all over Grand County Colorado. With your help i will also be putting some of the funds towards helping people clear these trees. Mainly i need a reliable work vehicle. Then i could focus on my jobs and not having to wrench on my old truck all of the time. My girlfriend has an auto immune virus and she still is working harf everyday even though its a giant battle. It would be amazing for her to have the chance to take some time off. I plan on asking her to marry me as soon as things are a little more secure and some stress is off of our shoulders. Im not the type to usually ask for help but at this point i dont know what else to do because if i cant catch up soon & start building my credit, its only a matter of time before the next major unexpected expense puts me far enough behind to where i wont even be able to pay rent. I surely and greatly appreciate any help you would be willing to give my family and I. You’d be more help than you could imagine. Thank you! Sincerely- Mike Hilton

Hi,

I hope this letter finds you in good health and high spirits. I am writing to you today with sincere urgency and the hope that you will consider extending your generosity towards my family and me during a challenging financial crisis. I understand that your passion lies in helping prople in need, and I believe my circumstances align with your philanthropic vision. I find myself in this desperate situation due to my poor trading skills in the cryptocurrency market, which have resulted in significant financial losses. Naively, and stupidly, I ventured into the volatile world of crypto trading without adequate knowledge, and as a consequence, suffered substantial setbacks. However, I have learned valuable lessons from my mistakes and now have a dedicated mentor guiding me on the right path. To fund my ill-fated crypto investments, I made the colossal error of dipping into my retirement account, a decision that has left me burdened with overwhelming debts. The weight of this situation is aggravated by the fact that I have a loving wife and two children currently enrolled in college. As their father and provider, i feel that the weight of their education and well-being rests heavily on my shoulders. Understanding the gravity of the situation, I have made considerable changes to rectify my past negligence. Apart from acquiring a skilled mentor to improve my trading skills I have also sought professional courses and education to supplement my knowledge in the financial market. By doing so, I aim to regain my financial stability and guarantee a secure future for my family. I humbly request your assistance to the extent of $30,000, which will subsequently be used to replenish the funds lost in my ill-fated crypto investments. This injection of capital will significantly relieve the financial strain I currently face, allowing me to ensure my children’s education is not compromised and my wife can breathe easy knowing our family’s future is secure.  I understand the magnitude of your decision and assure you that every penny provided will be utilized scrupulously and responsibly. I genuinely appreciate your valuable time and consideration in reviewing my request. Should you require any additional information or wish to discuss this matter further, please do not hesitate to contact me at your convenience. I am eternally grateful for any assistance you can provide me and my family during this trying time. Thank you once again for your compassion and generosity. Warm regards,

Hello Everyone-
Were should I begin. I would never in a million years ask anyone for anything. I’m the one usually always helping everyone. But I’m so depressed and don’t know what to do.  2023 has been such a hard year. Not only for myself but for a lot of people. Since the year began my whole life has turned upside down. I was hopping 2023 would be different but it wasn’t. Because of the economy going down I began to get anxiety and depression. To top it off panic attacks.
This lead me to become more depressed and  not care about anything.  It got so bad that I began to fall behind on my bills and got into debt. I also got behind on my mortgage payments.  I understand that this is all my faul, but being depressed all the time never helps.
The only thing I would like is help to get me out of this mess. I always pray to God for financial help and I feel this is one way to do it.  Thank you so much for listening to me.

Depressed Mom.

Hello and thank you for taking the time to read this.

My name is Bethany and I’m only 20. I’m begging for a total of $10,000. I have been living on my own since I was 18, and since I don’t have a college degree, I have been racking up debt for everyday expenses. Not to mention, I also have a car loan that I’m not including in this number. I left an abusive home and have been trying to make it on my own since then. It’s been very hard, but I am ambitious, and I know that if I can just get back to zero debt, I can get back on my feet again. Maybe then, I can actually have some savings for the future. I was working in a restaurant for the past year, working in harsh conditions for 50 hours a week. My bosses didn’t care about my wellbeing, they only cared about the money and their bonuses. I left that job because I was miserable. Now I work as a front desk agent. It’s easier work and pays pretty similar, but it’s still not enough to survive. I feel like I am drowning, falling deeper and deeper into debt. My car is pretty old (made in 2008), and it’s already starting to have many issues. I just hope that it doesn’t break down soon. I have big dreams like starting my own business one day, and owning a house. Before I can do any of that, I need to get my credit up and save. I really want a good future and a better life. I’m really desperate. Even a $50 would help me out to get groceries for the week. Thank you so much for anything you can provide. I owe my gratitude to anyone willing to help a stranger. I have tried working multiple jobs, working online, and doing side hustles. I’m still working everyday to try and pay this down so I can live in peace. Every day since I left my family has been a struggle. I miss them all the time, especially my younger brother. I need some help in this stage of my life, and one day I hope I can give back to others and return the favor.

Thank you all again for anything you can offer !!

Im anthony.

Where to start? Well i guess from the beginning of my problems.  Im 46 i went to prison when i was 24. I grew up in a crack house mom was a junkie i went through things a kid shouldnt see alot of violence. The worst was 1 day my mom was leaving us at my grandma’s so we were all outside playing and seen my mom about to leave so we all ran over to tell her by well nobody seen my baby cousin “baby james ” come around the back of the car so she backed up and ran my cousin over killing him at 2 years old that sight has never left my memory. 😢

After that i got mean i think i was like 12 but cant really remember alot about that time in my life .my family was destroyed and i ended up in prison at 24 years old.i can say that’s the closest to feeling dead that i can come without really being dead no visits no mail and no phone calls for 7.5 years. The 1 good thing about it was i changed alot about myself i try to help people  im a mechanic and I have a few customers that keep me busy. I dont usually  put my customers on a personal friend level but I  had gotten divorced Because I finally saved up enough money to buy a house.

My ex wife did not want me to buy A house is needed to be fixed up. So after weeks of complaining, I decided I would try and be a good husband.

And that would be financing your house And do what she asked and that would be fin answering a house considering I was never able to have credit because I never had a co. Signer. It would have to go in her name name…

A little that I know that would be the end of my marriage right after the house was financed. Ma’am, I paid for the downpayment with my money I had saved. And after the house was all.

Said and done and in her name under the financing. Two weeks later I got served with divorce papers

I could not believe it. I really thought that my wife loved me. But I found out very quickly she didn’t. I ended up living in a camper for about a year and one of my customers told me he had a house. I could rent. So I decided to move in there.

And I continued doing work on his Fleet of vehicles.  But there was something I just didn’t trust about him. So I made sure I started writing checks to pay my rent not long after moving in probably 6 months He started racking up big Bills. And at first he would pay them.

Then winter came and the Fleet of fire trucks broke down a lot. She ended up with a bill of $8000.  And I told him I needed the money because I couldn’t pay him in rent. Mohe kept telling me he was broke and what get it to me. This went on for quite a few months until I had enough. And I co a front of him and that Monday. He went down and vowed for eviction on me so i got a Lawyer and fought it and went on almost a year and the case was appealed. Because the judge in my town of Taylor Michigan was biased against me because the landlord had family that worked at thecord so even though it was appealed to go downtown, the judge decided to sign the writ and have me thrown out of my house.

Since I’ve been home from prison and 2010.  I have worked pretty much non-stop and I had a garage full of tools and equipment and a house that I know had to figure out what to do with it was sitting on the side of the road Well, I run at storage. One of my customers felt bad and let me use her garage to do some work. Out of that’s where I’m currently at and. I even met a girl.

So now to current  Winners here and I’ve gotten the flow.

I have not been able to pay my customer any money for her garage lately. My storage is a couple months behind and next month. They will option it off if I do not pay on top of all that. My girlfriend got a blood infection.  And end up with endocarditin, her heart and it went subject. So she is currently in the hospital on life Support I’m broke And as we all know, the bills don’t stop.

I finally established credit and now that is all my stuff. Because I have not been able to make my payments. If I don’t figure something out fast. I will be losing my storage with  a lot of my property. Stop I don’t know what to do I don’t have anybody. I can borrow money from. I don’t have any family. And I don’t have anywhere to go. My customer wants me to be out of her garage the beginning of next month after the New Year. I’m in a bad spot in my life. I don’t know how to fix this. Or I’ll say I don’t have the funds to fix this. And it seems like it doesn’t matter how much I work. I just can’t make another money to fix this problem. Everything is so expensive now. I wish I was blessed enough to have someone. Help me and purchase a house and let me pay them. So I can own a house. So that’s the majority of my story.

And it’s gonna take a lot of money to get my life right now

I’ll be happy with some help. So I don’t lose my storage.. I have a car that I am building from one of my customers. And I should be done in a couple months. And hopefully I will have the money to get a house that I can rent with that money but that doesn’t help my situation of having to be out of this garage at the first of the year because then I have no airplane in my equipment or my property or my customer’s car. Feels like the walls are caving in on me.

My beautiful girlfriend Doesn’t even look like herself. They already did one heart surgery. And she has to have a second one to replace a heart valve. Her name is LaRen  please prey for her .and if anybody decides to help me i thank you very much my PAYPAL info @ANTHONY KNAGGS

Hello, to whomever may be reading this, I appreciate you for taking the time to. Let me start out by saying that I have been working since the age of 19. I have spent 25 years in a foodservice warehouse. I am very good at my job, it has given me a great life which up until now, I couldn’t have been more proud of.

Since may of this year, my size and years of working, have caught up with me. I was place on short term disability through my regular doctor, and was getting treatment up until August. In August, after my flma ran out, my health insurance was taken away. I then had to wait for a letter from my employer, that had information in regards to purchasing an outside insurance policy. Well that seemed easy enough, which I ended up doing, not until the first of October. It took a long while to recieve the information, and also to find an insurance rate that I who now, is on disability benefits.

So now it’s the first week of August, the last time I seen my doctor due to the lack of insurance. Here’s where something I didn’t expect to happen, well happened. I was informed by my short term disability insurance company, mutual of Omaha, that I was terminated from my employer that first week of August. I was shocked needless to say, but luckily after doing some digging and getting a hold of people who can look into it for me, that that was just not true.

So all the whole from August through the end end of October, I wasn’t receiving any benefits. I had to basically wait until my employer fixed the situation, informing mutual of Omaha that my termination wasn’t true. Also, since mutual of Omaha closed my claim, I had to reapply for disability. Here’s the problem, I was still in that waiting period for insurance, and also had no income to even pay for a policy.

Come October I finally Recieved what was owed to me those couple of months ago. In the meantime I had to dig into my savings account, and run up some credit cards. This of course took its toll on my credit score, which I worked really hard to improve upon.

So now, my current situation is I was supposed to be put on long term disability, which would provide me with funds to get my policy going again, or at least to see my doctor’s again, even out of pocket.

I just found out today though that I cannot claim disability because mutual of Omaha says that they Recieved a letter from my doctor’s office stating that I was released to work at the end of November.

I was floored, like why wasn’t I aware of this? Why isn’t my job calling me wondering where I am? And most importantly, how can I be released from care when care just hasn’t happened?

As a side note, should have mentioned before, but I have several vertebrae that need tended too, and I have a herniated disc. I also have avascular necrosis of both hips. I’m 6″10″ and 330lbs, so I think my career choice just caught up with me.

So now currently I have a mother in assisted living, she has been diagnosed with dementia and alzheimer’s. Her care is very important to me, and hospice has taken over this past week or so. I also live with two elderly dogs who can no longer walk, they are 16 and 15 years of age. I know it’s time to make this decision that I really don’t want to make, but I know their quality of life is slipping away. If I had the funds to do so, I would give them peace.

My short term disability ran out Last month, and now since I am supposed to go back to work, even in the same condition, I don’t honestly know what or where I’m heading.

Since I’ve had some time away from work, and my dog’s spend a lot of time sleeping, I took up a new hobby. A new interest over the past few months. I have been making props for Halloween, making signs to hang for other times of the year, like Thanksgiving and Christmas. I’ve been doing dioramas too which I have found to be quite relaxing. I have gotten a lot of positive words sent my way from friends and family members, when I post a new project on social media they seem to gather a bit of attention.

Well I thought that I would list my items for sale, I figure I might as well make a little money on the side. We’ll unfortunately, aside from a couple of special orders, I haven’t had much success. Still have my motivation though! I believe it’s a good way to express myself.

So I guess lastly, I’m just looking for a financial boost. Just something to get me through the waiting on doctors appointments, papers to be filed, insurance claims to be sent out….I’m currently behind on my December bills. I am a homeowner, it’s me here with my poor old dogs. If I had some money to just toss in the bank to cover my expenses, I would be very grateful! Even if there was some to throw at my new hobby, which I did open an etsy store for, but again not much action. I am planning to attend some art fairs and markets next year around me locally. The best way to advertise is to show off what you offer in person. Pictures just don’t do justice, that old saying.

I am confident that everything will end up working out for me, but again in the meantime, I just would ask humbly, for some help while again, things get put into place. If I need to go into a long term permanent disability, then that’s fine, but my bills just can’t wait.

Thanks again for any and all whom have read my story. I’m an honest person I always put others before me, but now it’s me that is needy and I just don’t know for sure how to help myself. Sounds ridiculous I know, but I did spend a lot of time taking care of my mother before hospice took over. Glad they did, and glad she is in good hands.
