I havne't felt this low in such a long time. I guess since I was laid off from my job. I finally mananged to get a job, where I wouldn't have to rely on child care and still can see my son. I'm a single Mom and like to try to be wih him as much as I can when he's not at school. I would hate to see him bored roaming the streets looking for stuff to do.
My new job doesn't pay what the old one did, but I'm just glad to be working. But due to the layoff we fell so far behind in all bills. I'm slowly catching them up, and most places have been good with working with me, but some are getting a wee bit tired of it and I understand-they are businesses.
My water is due to be cut off next week.
My 10 year old old son, has a chance to go to Washington. He was so proud of himself. He's worked hard in all his elem. school years, making honor roll, being safety patrol, never in trouble at school, and now he won't see it come real (the trip). The 1st deposit is due next week, with another even larger deposit due a few weeks after that, and the remainder a few weeks after that. It breaks my heart to see him lose out on that chance, but I can't come up with that money right now. Heck, I can't even pay for the water bill.
I'm hoping maybe someone would consider helping us out with these 2 things. I know the water is the real priority when it comes to life, but the trip somehow means more important to me, because this could be a once in a life time chance for him.
Thanks for checking this out.
