Hi! I need help! My husband works A full time job ,but he also Pays child Support For two Children which doesn't leave much for us.I have a 3 soon to be 4 year old son. Our mobile home is falling apart at the seams literally.We wouldn't even have it if not for my sister.With it being in such poor condition it takes a small fortune to heat.Our current electric bill is 314.00. That's for one month and it still doesn't get above 70degrees in the house. We are 2 payments behind on our car which totals to 340.00.We just recieved a shut off notice for our water--90.00.And I think our phone was just cut off--327.00.We are trying so Hard,but its so hard to get out of the deep water.It's more like quick sand, the more you fight to get out the more you sink. We were counting on our taxes to pay the bills up and maybe a little ahead, but they are being taken for my husbands back child support, he was out of work for awhile and got behind.We do try to conserve energy and water . If I hear something new to try I try it.It just doesn't seem to reflect on the bills.I am currently looking for a job but it's difficult to find one that doesn't coinside with my husbands hours[we only have the one car].I want you to know that when we are doing good we do donate.When I was working I had money taken out of my check for united way and we donate to different charities around our home when we have it.So we do give.But as I'm sure most of you know it doesn't feel good to have to ask for help,but when you have kids you do what ever it takes.Any help would be appreciated.Thanks for taking the time to read this.Also I have looked online for a jobfrom home ,but everyone wants you to pay them .If I had theamounts tey want me to invest I wouldn't be looking for a job. Does anyone have any info on online jobs that does not require a "investment" or any other ideas? Thanks again!!!
